What is Doctor’s Note?

If you mixed together things I’m thinking about with blogging, bookmarking, Twitter, Mastodon and e-mails I write to friends and colleagues who ask me if I have any thoughts on a subject, you’d have Doctor’s Note.

Doctor’s Note is an irregular newsletter containing a mix of longer form essays and short musing on design, design leadership, coaching, innovation, culture, technology, society, personal and professional development. Some essays appear at a later date on my blog, while the book recommendations, links with commentary and other articles are exclusive to subscribers.

Why “Doctor’s Note”? Because it’s about the only time I get to make use of the fact I have a PhD and I liked the pun. You get to take time off of work or school when you have a doctor’s note, so make use of it.
