TLDR Design · OPINIONS & TUTORIALS
TO BE A DESIGNER IS TO BE A FACILITATOR
Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter
Designers should embrace facilitation as a core principle, not just an event-specific role. This involves supporting others to understand, collaborate, and create by building shared understanding, promoting open communication, and being mindful of power dynamics. Emphasizing facilitation encourages inclusive, community-driven approaches rather than reinforcing the outdated "designer as expert" model.
