In the second episode of Humanizing Change, host Ari Abraham talks with Hector Ouilhet, former VP of Design at Dropbox, about leading teams through change by focusing on identity, coaching, and human-centered design. Hector shares how his early experiences shaped his leadership style — and how making space for both individual and collective growth is key to navigating the evolving role of AI in organizations.
Lessons from the episode:
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.
