Prologue
Let's start with the harsh truth;
Figma, Framer, etc skills will get you so far in your design career, especially in this day and age of Artificial Intelligence (AI)!
These days, there are a ton of designers who know how to use design software. With all the free videos and courses available online, it's become easier than ever to pick up these skills. Plus, with the advancement of AI, we are witnessing how rapidly AI is already replacing technical work (icon design, defining typographic scale, etc.)
What is it then if it is not the technical design skills?
I do not deny the importance of hard skills here, there are countless resources out there that can teach you how to use Figma, Framer, etc. I encourage you to take advantage of them. After all, being able to bring your vision to life with the right tools is a crucial part of the design process. it's also essential to appreciate the process itself and understand how each step contributes to the final outcome. Either via designing it directly or making use of AI tools.
Mastering hard skills is important, but it's not enough if you want to succeed in the design world.
To be relevant in the day and age of AI, earn a high income, stand out, and work on dream projects with ideal clients, you'll need to develop your human skills such as communication, creativity, leadership, problem-solving, empathy and more. These are all essential skills for success as a designer.
By investing in these skills, you'll be better equipped to collaborate, communicate, and create designs that truly resonate. You will be the designer who benefits from AI advancement and grow instead of living in fear of being replaced by an AI tool.
Topics we will cover:
- Confidence
- Communication
- Negotiation
- Self Learning
- Relax Attitude (be the calmest person in the room)
- Critical Thinking
- Collaboration, Teamwork
- Questioning
- Conflict Resolution
- Decision Making
- Empathy
- Leadership

What about AI?
Are the learnings in this course will be irrelevant tomorrow?
There is no better time to focus on Human Skills in the world we live in with the rapid advancement of AI.
Every day we witness how AI tools are getting better at technical deliveries by designing icons, flex layouts, and more.
We are advancing to a tomorrow where 1 designer will be able to do 10 designers' jobs with the help of AI tools.
The question is; Are you going to be the designer who benefits from the AI tools or being replaced by them?
Human skills (aka soft skills) + Technical skills (design) = Success
Combine your human skills with AI tools, you will be the 1 designer whom all teams will be after.
Wait!
Before you spend your hard-earned money on it, There is a catch.

To truly improve your skills, you'll need to be open to change and willing to put in the work. You'll need to adopt a new perspective on design and develop your human skills in addition to your technical abilities.

FAQ
Yet another course for Designers?! Really?!
I hear you : ) Our industry is flooded with designers and courses, especially teaching technical skills like how to use Figma, Framer, etc.
However, I could not find any good resource for Human Skills which I think is even more important than technical skills, especially in this day and age of AI.
So in this sense, this is not really just another design course.
I don't have time to go through another course. Is this one going to ask for many hours of my time?
The teachings in this course are very much embedded into our lives as designers.
You won't need to sit down in your room and spend hours practising these learnings.
You will practise by applying it to your daily life as a designer.
So it won't ask much of your precious time, but change of your mindset as a designer.
What if I don't get any good results?
Human skills are more challenging to quantify than technical skills.
You can learn how to design a button in Figma and see the result immediately.
However, it will take longer to see the results when you learn about confidence and communication.
You will start to realise how the way you think about design is changing...
I'm confident you will get results in the long run...
I'm a junior designer. Is this course for me?
Yes.
As a new designer in the field, you will differentiate yourself from the crowd by learning and applying the human aspect of design.
I'm an experienced senior designer. Is this course for me?
The skills we focus on here are timeless and are applicable to designers at any level.
I have seen the lack of human skills as the main reason why experienced designers get stuck in their careers.
