This Summit
will bring together the best and the brightest minds to create an
experiential forum to examine the concept, scope, and depth of empowered
innovation. The format of the summit will differ from past DMI programs
in several ways. As registration for the Summit develops, web-based
interaction and discussions will begin. The first two hundred people
to register will receive a copy of Daniel Pink’s book, The
Whole New Mind. From this group twenty-five will be invited
to participate in a special pre-conference workshop on innovation
leadership to prepare them for further learning as innovation consultants
during the Summit. Each day of the summit will be filled with lectures,
interactive sessions, and special projects. The Summit will act
as a catalyst focusing on learning from each other in a very creative
context. Please visit the DMI Web site in the coming weeks for more
information about this exciting new conference.

Design for Stress
By
Daniel Formosa, Ph.D., SmartDesign
From the Design Management Review, Vol. 16, No. 3, Summer 2005
It happens
all too often. Poorly designed products and interfaces cause anger
and stress, or worse, are misunderstood and misused when people
are under stress. Daniel Formosa reveals the sources of these problems
and analyzes how, when professionals expand their understanding
of design and emotion to include stress, problems are reduced at
the same time that safety and reliability are enhanced.

Creating an Industry and Culture Through Branding: The Story of
Burton Snowboards
By
David Schriber, Burton Snowboards, and Michael Jager, Creative Director,
Jager Di Paola Kemp
From the Design Management Review, Vol. 10, No. 1, Winter 1999
The market
is young and irreverent. It revels in an outlaw image. In this situation,
traditional branding just won’t do. Instead, David Schriber
and Michael Jager helped to create a “living brand”
that shapes and is shaped by the culture of snowboarding. Design
is at the heart of this dynamic customer-centered strategy. The
product is always being refined; there are 20 to 30 versions of
the corporate mark each season. This is branding with a twist. The
constant here is the world of snowboarding, which is always changing.
