Former IBM CEO, Thomas Watson Jr., famously said, "good design is good business." In this JM Buzz episode, we spotlight two great papers that help us understand how design can work for—and against—good business.
Join host Claudia Townsend (University of Miami) as she interviews authors of recent Journal of Marketing articles exploring design: Nikolaus Franke (WU Vienna University of Economics and Business), Alicia Kulczynski (Newcastle Business School), and Margurite Hook (Newcastle Business School).
