Many people struggle to find that balance between speaking up for your design decisions and coming off as too defensive. This balance between humble yet confident is a hard one to master. Fortunately, my guest today, Elize Todd, as figured out how to strike that balance and has learned the positive outcomes of speaking out.
This goes even further than just articulating or presenting your project. You should also consider (although scary) how to vocalize what you need from your company, peers, and other coworkers.
