On the latest episode of get a tad ranty and dive into the topic of designers having the potential tendency to be marginalized at companies. What I mean by “marginalized” (not trying to be click-baity, sorry if it comes off that way) is how the overall org perception of the designer can essentially be perceived ONLY as a “set of hands” and not really a contributor to the overall company strategy. This can serve as true for product designers, graphic designers and even developers. I analyze why this phenomenon tends to occur in the first place, what factors manifest it into existence and how you can prevent it from happening to you if you are designer. However, the answer is simply understanding strategy for as many business sectors as possible (product, tech, sales, marketing etc.) I go into detail with that and a bunch more on an all new episode of NRS!
