I've got some special for you... Today's introduction is the start of a new mini-series in which my good friend Michael Curtis will be joining me to talk about Soft Skills, and how you can strengthen your own.
Over the last few years, I've found Uncle Mikey and I expressing similar thoughts on the topic. It's one of the reasons that we became friends in the first place. Over the last couple years, you've heard me share some thoughts here and there about these soft skills, also known as 'interpersonal skills', or umbrellaed under the term 'Emotional Intelligence'. Today marks the start of series which we hope will help bring you greater awareness into your own soft skills, and how to improve in the area that needs improvement. After all, studies have shown that only 15% of your workplace success can be contributed to your hard-skills, therefore 85% of what will bring you success in your career can't be found in your classroom curriculum.
Over the next few weeks, listen along and ask yourself the hard questions. Figure out where it is you can make improvements. I bet we will talk about it. At the end of each episode, we will leave you with a challenge. Our hope is that after taking the challenge, you can report back on what you learned or experience. Feel free to drop us a line and share your story. Messages can be received on LinkedIn or Instagram, or via DM on the Designed Today slack channel. We hope to hear from ya.
This series came about after a recent LinkedIn post caught some attention and found over 100 comments on the topic. You can see the original post here: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/dillonwinspear_hey-linkedin-fam-i-wanted-to-ask-all-my-activity-6705972662327394304-xEZA

It wasn't too long ago that people were born and their parents knew from Day 1 what they were going to grow up to be. For some it was a Doctor, for others it was a lawyer. Some people were going to take over the family grocery store. But if you start asking around, I could almost guarantee nobody today was born and raised to be a UX Designer.
This would then mean that a career in UX wasn't planned, and we stumbled into the field from some other discipline. For me, a career in UX Design wasn't discovered until a few years after receiving my bachelor's degree in Business Marketing.
My guest today is Ioana Teleanue, she is the face behind the extremely popular and insightful Instagram account @UXGoodies. With over 200k followers, she is continually sharing tips and advice for those getting into the field of UX.
Today we discuss first how your unique background before getting into UX can be a benefit to you, and second, we delve into some of the advice she's given to designers who are stuck in their early career not knowing the next move.

Social media cultivates a world in which we feel pressured to live behind a facade of "everything's good" and "always sunshine over here" - but the truth of the matter is nobody is actually living that way, so why do we pretend?
When quarantine hit, and everyone found themselves working from home, I began to see a natural evolution to get a glimpse of what happens "behind the scenes". From kids walking into zoom meetings, to dirty laundry in the backgrounds, to cats walking across keyboards. And guess what, nobody cared. Fact, it almost resonated to be able to see your boss experiencing the same things you were facing.
Turns out, being real and vulnerable may actually resonate more with people than these facades we've created and hide behind.
My guest today is branding and logo design superstar, James Martin. Nobody has personified vulnerability and transparency on social media as this man has, and he'll be the first to tell you that his vulnerability has only yielded positive results. Whether you've got a massive following or no following at all, we can benefit from learning how to live with a little more vulnerability.

Avoiding Design Biases // Ep. 78
Designed Today
06/30/20 • 6 min
Building off of Episode 76 with the Boxing analogy, I'm going to keep that thought process moving forward and share with you today why you need to keep those gloves up and protecting your face.
Among the many punches that will be thrown at a designer as they go along their design process, is the unintentional biases that could slip in and knock us off balance. The outcome is a project that will feel a bit wobbly, and your confidence in the right course of action will diminish.
Today we take a look at 2 of the more common biases that could creep into your project:
- Confirmation Bias
- Survivorship Bias

My guest today is David Hoang, who in my opinion has one of the best Design Twitter accounts. I've been following him for some time and have learned a ton about design leadership in the process. To be able to have him on the podcast today is an absolute pleasure, and you're going to love it.
I've mentioned that the Designed Today podcast is changing, and in today's intro, I'll finally give you some details on what that change is going to look like. In short, things evolve. This podcast needs to evolve just like your career is evolving.
What does your career evolution look like? Well, you may be nearing an opportunity or crossroads of leadership and management. Does your company provide tracks for both individual contributors and managers? What are the responsibilities that come with each? And how do you know what track is right for you?
Today we'll dive into what you need to consider before transitioning from and IC to Manager.
