Designing for Trust in an Uncertain World at An Event Apart Seattle
1 like6,045 views
The document discusses how trust has eroded in today's world due to inconsistent information, confirmation bias, and prioritizing feelings over facts. It argues that building trust requires showing consistency internally and externally, empowering users through an appropriate voice and transparency, and bringing people outside their "bubbles" to have discussions across differences. Designing experiences that are slow and encourage deliberation, as well as showing appropriate volume and vulnerability, can help people develop confidence and rebuild trust over time.
