GOING FROM DESIGNER TO DESIGN MANAGER IN AN ORGANIZATION WITH A LOW DESIGN MATURITY

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Transitioning from a designer to a design manager in organizations needing more design maturity presents challenges. Designers often defend their decisions, while managers must justify the team's fundamental value. These struggles are observed in organizations categorized at lower levels of design maturity, suggesting underlying cultural issues rather than solely communication or strategic shortcomings.
