- “Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” – Steve Jobs
Why Strong Speaking Skills Are the Designer’s Secret Tool
Clear speaking builds credibility.
When you speak clearly, people not only hear your words but also trust the message you convey. Clear communication signals preparation, confidence, and respect for your audience’s time, qualities that instantly raise your credibility.
Clients make decisions faster when they understand.
Confusion slows everything down, but clarity speeds up trust. When clients understand exactly what you’re proposing, they feel more confident saying “yes” and decisions move forward with less hesitation.
Strong communication saves costly revisions.
Misunderstandings on the front end almost always lead to expensive fixes later. Clear communication reduces mistakes, prevents rework, and ensures that both you and your clients stay on time and on budget.
- Your design may be flawless, but if you can’t communicate it, the brilliance gets lost.
