As a designer, for most of my career I didn’t feel like I was set up for success. Many companies didn’t understand design, leading to unrealistic expectations. Manager’s feedback often felt vague and incomplete, not giving me a clear path forward. I was usually stuck between a PM demanding products ship faster and a design leader's push for higher craft. Sound familiar?Somehow, I still managed to ship some incredible work at world-class companies (if you've used Airbnb or DoorDash, you know my work already).But it wasn’t until I got my MBA from U.C. Berkeley that I realized that it was business skills, lessons, and frameworks that I had been missing all along.Now, through my monthly cohort-based classes on Maven, I've taught thousands of designers how to accelerate their careers despite the difficult work environments they face.In class, I share lessons from my $150,000 MBA and 20-year design career. You'll learn from the things I accidentally did right, the things I definitely did wrong, and the business tactics I wish I had known sooner.If you're a designer who wants to:• Be more impactful and strategic• Develop your influence & win-over stakeholders,• Future-proof your design career from AI,• Ship the best design work of your career...I’m here to help!Check out the links below, or visit my courses on Maven: https://maven.com/ryan-scott/
