Sidewalks are the sort of mundane-but-necessary, ever-underfoot infrastructure that embody many of the dilemmas of maintaining the "public commons" in a complex modern society. In Pittsburgh we have the added wrinkle of municipality-maintained staircases: https://www.npr.org/2017/11/12/563606283/the-crumbling-stairs-of-pittsburgh Best, Andrew On Tue, Aug 14, 2018 at 7:31 PM, Camille E.

I'm onboard with a lot being said here, so reaching out! A few years back I wrote a book on Enterprise Design, the idea of going beyond products and services to design the enterprises behind human endeavours. Since 2014 we are organizing a yearly conference, gathering a network of people interested in this topic: service+experience designers, change/transformation experts, enterprise+business architects, etc. -- we like to think we are one of the few events bringing together a relevant mix to change systems in a meaningful way. In two weeks we have our fifth edition in Prague. Have a look at the agenda and if you want to join us, please use the code "lateearly" to get a late early bird discount. Also we're doing an open call for contributions every year, would be great to hear from you then. More here, Sep 6-7 in Prague: http://2018.intersectionconf.com Milan -- Milan Guenther Partner ???
