Service Design for a systemic and dynamic understanding on well-being

Abstract

As the world has become more interconnected and complex, there is an increasing awareness of the importance of considering well-being collectively. This paper aims to explore how service design can contribute to the shift from an individual well-being perspective to a more systemic and dynamic understanding. The authors first conducted literature reviews about three key well-being constructs: resource- challenges equilibrium (individual well-being), balanced centricity in value networks (network well-being), and actor ecosystems (community well-being). Using these constructs as lenses, the authors have then selected three service design interventions to describe service design approaches and contributions at different well-being levels. Finally, the authors suggested developing a holistic and integrated service design approach to link individuals with network and community well-being for a growing service ecosystem
