    S1E11 AUDIO Andy Fitzgerald on Taxonomies, Trust, and Making Sense of Organizational Chaos
    2025/07/30
    Information architect and UX strategist Andy Fitzgerald joined me to talk about what happens when content systems reflect silos instead of shared understanding. We unpacked how messy navigation, broken taxonomies, and unclear content flows often reveal misalignment inside the org—not just design problems on the screen. We also talked about:
    • Using architecture to surface conflict
    • Why navigation is a trust signal
    • The difference between content systems and strategy
    • How cartography, not templates, might be your best metaphor
    • Why users—and teams—get stuck without context
    Whether you’re working in higher ed, government, or any content-heavy org, this one’s packed with alignment gold.

    S1E10 AUDIO Bill Albert on UX Theater, Agency Traps, and What Research Is Really For
    2025/07/30
    Why do so many UX researchers end up doing the wrong work for the wrong reasons? In this episode of Corporate Underpants Live, I talk with Bill Albert—author of Measuring the User Experience and founding director of Bentley’s Design and Usability Center—about the sneaky ways research gets misused, the traps UX teams fall into, and how to start being strategic before you’re invited to be. We cover:
    • How research becomes a performance instead of a process
    • The hidden cost of acting like an internal agency
    • Why UX maturity models don’t equal real buy-in
    • What to do when you get pulled into stakeholder tornadoes
    • How to step into strategy without permission
    • Red flags like “we already know the users”
    • Why mapping stakeholders is just as important as mapping users
    This episode is a guide to getting unstuck, getting heard, and doing research that actually matters.

  • S1E9 AUDIO David Bland on Testing Business Ideas, Strategy Confusion, and Why VC Culture is Broken

    S1E9 AUDIO David Bland on Testing Business Ideas, Strategy Confusion, and Why VC Culture is Broken
    2025/07/30

    David Bland, co-author of *Testing Business Ideas*, joins Tamara Adlin for a candid conversation about what *actually* holds teams back from testing well, building great products, and aligning around a strategy that works. Spoiler: the biggest barriers aren’t lack of data—they’re misalignment, culture, and invisible power dynamics.

    This episode digs into the difference between performing strategy and actually having one, why VC culture often disincentivizes good product decisions, and how to prioritize what to test when everything feels risky. 🔥 Key Takeaways: – Testing is not about proving you’re right. – Strategy without alignment = chaos disguised as agility. – Even CEOs need facilitation. – You can’t outsource clarity. 💬 Favorite Quote from David: “You can do all the testing in the world, but if you didn’t prioritize your risk—or even agree on what your biggest risk was—you’re just running really fast in all directions.” 👤 Guest Info: David Bland — Innovation coach, startup veteran, and co-author of *Testing Business Ideas* https://davidjbland.com 📚 Mentioned: – *Testing Business Ideas* – Strategyzer value proposition canvas – Corporate Venture vs. traditional VC 🎧 Listen & Subscribe: Find more at www.adlininc.com
