Human Centered Design: The Heart of DX | Emi Kwon, Director of UX at Metlife Japan



Have we lost sight of the core of Digital Transformation?

Every day we hear more and more about “going paperless” or getting rid of legacy systems, but will this lead to true DX?

Emi Kwon, Director of Experience Design Group at Metlife, knows what can get us back on track: Human Centered Design.

In this interview, Emi gives us her thoughts on the different stages of DX, why Japan has fallen so far behind (with data to prove it), and what needs to be the focus to bring us up to speed.
