Designers, Are You 2026 Ready?
(Self-Assessment )
Answer YES or NO. No hedging. And don't peek at the scoring! 😆
- I can explain how my last project affected revenue, churn, or cost
- I routinely challenge the problem before designing solutions
- I know when human intervention lowers quality
- I verify AI-generated research instead of trusting outputs
- I move without waiting for permission or perfect inputs
- I can say “this shouldn’t be built” and be heard
- I understand my company’s business model
- I’m comfortable making directional calls under uncertainty
Scoring:
- 0–3 YES: You’re operating on borrowed time
- 4–6 YES: You’re competitive — but replaceable
- 7–8 YES: You’re positioning yourself for leverage
Post your score in Skool (no explanations required).
