Femke.design: How to Break into Senior Design Roles (5 patterns holding you back)

Dreaming of a senior design gig? It's time to shake off a few bad habits! Stop waiting for permission and instead proactively pitch small improvements. Focus on solving business problems and defining success metrics before designing, not just churning out outputs.

And don't forget to build those critical relationships with your PMs and partners. Get comfy with low-stakes conflict, always framed by shared goals. Lastly, track your wins, connect your work to actual outcomes, and make sure your manager hears about it! Pick one to start with, and watch your career zoom.
