WHAT IS THE ONE THING not taught in design school, but is an essential survival skill for practicing designers? Working with other people. And yet, in every project, collaboration with other people is often the most difficult part.

Designing Together is a book for cultivating collaborative behaviors and dealing with the inevitable difficult conversations.

  • 17 designer personality traits

This book is for designers:
  • On teams large or small
