The video dives into why many designers get stuck as “order takers” instead of strategic problem solvers—and how a simple mindset shift changes everything. Guests Steven Steiner, Miranda Slayter and Angelina Lu share real-world tips: take initiative by spotting gaps, ask probing questions that uncover real needs, challenge assumptions to show you see the big picture, and always tie your work back to measurable impact. Sprinkle in some AI tools for speed and clarity, and you’ve got a recipe for turning heads (and getting that seat at the product-shaping table).
Along the way you’ll see how small tweaks in communication and confidence can prove your value faster than any fancy title. Oh, and they demo a nifty tool called Durable that gets your ideas online in seconds—no coding required. Ready to stop executing and start leading? This is your playbook.
