Abstract: What to learn about automobile ergonomics? Ever wondered what it is like working inside a big company, rather than consulting for one? Want to learn about what actually makes change, what works and doesn’t work with communicating and persuading designers and engineers? Want to get a glimpse of the internal company politics that can baffle and confuse outsiders? Want to go to a presentation where developing theory isn’t on the agenda? Wondering whether this list of questions will ever end? Come to this presentation and you might just be surprised…
