OPM Collective.
Other People Movement (OPM) applies principles from positive psychology to address loneliness by convening small, diverse groups of strangers to connect deeply with one another in facilitated online gatherings called Circles.
I helped identify the company’s core experience goals, brainstorm creative solutions, and make strategic decisions on where to expand. We offered a new context in which Collective members could interact with each other and deepen their bonds outside of Circle, called the Clubhouse. As the Clubhouse evolved, I gave feedback and made suggestions based on gathering design, experience design, and psychology.
