There’s a lot of designers here so I wanna test something out! 👀 Have you worked / collaborated with a “Strategist” before? Or are you like “wth is that?”

I’ve worked with some good ones and have played that role for various phases of my design career. In my case, a mix of generative research, opportunity finding, concept validation, etc. and it gave me valuable skills and perspectives I’ve taken into my end to end design practice.
Probably where that landed for me was in understanding how the pieces come together in product definition and planning, and how all that overlaps with biz / market strategy and bet-making.
