SDA have been running for 5 years now. It’s time to reflect and focus on what’s important.

We have been working with Change Frameworks to design our new strategy, our vision, mission and all the building blocks we need to continue doing what we do best; Service Design education, training and championing!

Oh, and this is us! The people behind SDA! From left to right: Katie, Jo, Kim, Robbie, Maralyn, Claire and Caron (only missing our Alison who had to scoot early!)

Feel free to get in touch, say hi 👋 and learn more about what we do!

On Friday, we said a fond farewell to Chris Muir who is leaving Team SDA to take up the post of Service Design Manager with today!

Chris has been part of the Service Design Academy since joining the Test Cohort for the Professional Development Award in Service Design in 2017, taking up a Consultants post in 2018.

We'll miss EVERYTHING about Chris - his wicked sense of humour, his knowledge and enthusiasm and above all his passion for service design. There will be a great big Chris sized hole in our Team.

Goodbye and good luck from all at Team SDA 💛🖤💛🖤💛
