☕️ Clive K. Lavery — Co-Founder
👋 With 15+ years in UX & Service Design I enable companies, agencies and teams of all sizes to add clarity, business value and delight to their complex digital products, services and processes. Being trained in industrial business management at 3M and working in strategic development for Adobe also helps me bridge design, product and business conversations with ease. You can book me on-site, hybrid or remotely for: → Fractional or interim leadership positions → Freelance design and strategic roles → Workshop and event facilitation > Get in touch via DM to discuss how we can work together < 🧠 Based on my own lived experience and growing awareness for mental health and neurodivergence in the design & tech space, I am on a mission to create environments where designers and people in tech can thrive as full-stack human beings and not just survive (or totally burn out) as human resources. Starting in 2026, I will help individual contributors, leaders and teams move from awareness to action through talks that inspire, workshops that work and initiatives that have an impact. > Reach out for more details and to get a 10% discount during the pilot phase < 🎤 As a public speaker I have presented at events such as Adobe Max (Los Angeles), Amuse (Budapest), World IA Day (Copenhagen), Hatch (Berlin), NEXT (Hamburg), Forward Festival (Munich) and Push UX (Munich), while also contributing to grassroots design meet-ups across Europe. 🥳 Beyond commercial work I am known for community leadership, having founded and co-organising Friends of Figma Berlin, co-organised UXcamp Europe (the largest European barcamp for UX professionals) and revived the UX Book Club Berlin.
