Assume alignment.

What Experienced Designers Do


Repeat goals.
Restate decisions.
Summarize outcomes.

Clarity reduces noise across teams.

Why It Matters


Misalignment grows quietly and explodes late.

Today’s Action


At the end of your next meeting, summarize:

  • What we decided

  • What happens next

  • Who owns it

Don’t assume others will.
