#54 Making an Impact: UX, AI, and the Future of Enterprise Software
Thursday, 20 November, 2025
In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Makoto Kern of IIIMPACT, about bridging business goals with cutting-edge technology and creating user-centric solutions in high-stakes environments.How do you balance speed, user experience, and AI adoption when launching new digital products? -Get the insights in this SEE BEYOND #54 episode!Key Takeaways: From Robotics to UX Leadership – Makoto shared his journey from engineering and lean manufacturing to building a consultancy that accelerates enterprise software delivery. The Triple Pillar Approach – Success in digital transformation requires alignment across business, users, and development. AI Adoption & The “Competence Mirage” – AI is a powerful force multiplier, but it won’t replace experienced teams. Companies must avoid the illusion that AI alone solves everything. Enterprise UX Revolution – Many organizations still build software like houses without asking what users want. Makoto’s “cheat codes” emphasize early alignment, rapid prototyping, and continuous feedback. Future Outlook – Expect faster innovation cycles, AI-driven tools, and even physical robots reshaping industries. Education must adapt to teach critical thinking and AI fluency.Makoto’s advice for leaders: “Speed and direction matter. If you stop innovating or ignore user experience, you’ll be left behind.”/Mika Tienhaara, See Beyond host and producer This is a public episode.
