16 John Murphy, Director, Design4Use John runs an independent consultancy in Melbourne in User Experience research, design and testing. He has over 20 years of experience John believes that keeping the customer s voice throughout a project leads to more effective, usable and ultimately successful systems I think it is really great that Swinburne takes the time to talk to UX/CX and Service Design managers and practitioners in Melbourne, to work out exactly what kinds of skills and capabilities they are looking for in graduates. A great bridge between industry and Swinburne
