About this listen
🎯 "Good design speaks for itself."
...except when it doesn’t.
In this episode, Tyler White and Nick Groeneveld break down how to present your work—and yourself—in a way that actually influences decisions. Whether you're in a client pitch, a job interview, or a high-stakes design review, how you communicate your value is just as important as what you design.
We’re breaking down:
✅ Why context matters—and how to tailor presentations to different audiences.
✅ The secret to stakeholder engagement (hint: it starts before you show the design).
✅ How to frame your work from a business perspective and prove ROI.
✅ Why transparency and preparation turn meetings into momentum.
✅ Specialist vs. generalist: how to position yourself for the right opportunities.
✅ How AI tools are quietly reshaping the way designers prep, present, and build trust.
If you’ve ever struggled to get buy-in, felt overlooked in meetings, or bombed an interview you thought you nailed, this episode will give you the strategies to turn it around.
🎧 Listen now and start presenting like your career depends on it—because it does.
