On today’s episode, Ari has a conversation with Hector Ouilhet, former VP of Design at Dropbox.

Ari’s chat with Hector covers several topics, including helping teams define themselves as a group and as individuals, operating in the background as a team of coaches to the advantage of the people within an organization, and the idea of aging and patina in digital assets.

The conversation begins with Hector sharing his early experiences with his sense of self, how they shape his perspective on leadership, and how that helps him lead his team through change with understanding and awareness.

Producer’s note: After this episode was recorded, Hector left Dropbox to become Advanced Interaction Resident Researcher at CIID, his alma mater, where he’s tinkering with new ways of designing for AI and making it as human-centric as possible.
