Something to read under the shade of a tree... Bad Services by @loudowne.bsky.social 💚 #BadServices #ServiceDesign

A vibrant green book titled "Bad Services" by Lou Downe rests atop a Muji notepad, accompanied by a Uni-ball Eye pen, under tree shade.

I’m reading ”The Great Mental Models” by @shaneaparrish.bsky.social. It’s 4 books packed with tools for better thinking: 1. General thinking concepts 2. Physics, chemistry, and biology 3. Systems and mathematics 4. Economics and human behaviour I’m two books into the series, and I highly recommend

The image shows the four books in the "Great Mental Models" series by Shane Parrish on a table. Book 1 is about general thinking concepts; book 2 is about physics, chemistry and biology; book 3 is about systems and mathematics; and book 4 is about economics and human behaviour.
