Sheryl Cababa’s Closing the Loop challenges designers to move beyond linear problem-solving and embrace systems thinking. In a world where design decisions have far-reaching consequences, this book equips UX and service designers with tools to anticipate unintended impacts, address systemic inequities, and create more ethical, sustainable solutions.

Why this matters: For our book club, this discussion matters because it pushes us to reflect on our own work. How can we better connect the dots between research, design, and real-world impact? How do we close the loop in our own processes to ensure we’re designing responsibly? Let’s explore together

Feel free to join as many Reading Circles as possible (you don’t have to attend all of them to participate).

Exciting news! The UX Inner Circle is thrilled to introduce our new Book Club, ‘The Reading Circle”, offering you a chance to dive into moderated discussions and expand your knowledge in a relaxed setting.
