Snap Into It
Led by Audrey and Adam, "Snap Into It" is a podcast by Configura that connects designers with developers, manufacturers with researchers, and your hosts with a whole bunch of cool people they want to interview!
We will interview users about their experiences that directly contribute to projects we are working on, and we will interview people who create tools for users so we can all get to know each other a little better.

010 | Do You Believe in Magic? (Season Finale)
In our Season 1 finale, we uncover the creative and technical process behind HNI’s award-winning “Key Wizard” feature. Guest host Terese Acou is joined by Amanda Adams (HNI), Acuan Longatti (Encodec), and Vinicius Romano (Encodec) to explore how a spark of imagination turned into a real shipping product. We’ll dig into how teams collaborate, experiment, and adapt, as well as why a little bit of magic is always part of building something innovative.009 | I'm not Steve (ft. CEO Stefan Persson)
So what is Configura really like? Who better to ask than our CEO? Join us as we get to know Stefan Persson (however you wish to pronounce "Stefan") and talk about our values, what makes Configura a great place to work, and where we shine as a team. And about that question: Will Design Thinking make you better at Tetris? Spoiler: maybe. But good luck beating Stefan, former Nintendo gamer and record breaker. What you can do is apply Design Thinking at every level of the company, including the C-suite. And stick around until the end for a quick Nerd Alert segment featuring none other than our founder, Johan Lyreborn, explaining what PGC means.008 | Wedding Planning, An Exercise in Design Thinking (ft. Evelina Hagelin)
Have you been wondering what this 'Design Thinking' Thing is all about? We talk more explicitly about 'Design Thinking' with the great Evelina Hagelin on the matter. Specifically, how its helping Configura get back to it's roots, to empathize and understand our user community better. We also explore exactly how one pronounces 'Hagelin', macaroni & cheese and a new strategy for planning weddings.
