#25 & #26 of Michael Bierut’s 26 year old sequential collection of notebooks. EXPECTATION 6 | innovative business strategy There always seems to be a lot of interest in designers’ sketchbooks, but I call these notebooks for a reason. Page after page contain nothing but records of phone conversations, notes from meetings, price estimates, specifications. I keep the random doodles to a minimum. Someone looking at those pages would think the book might belong to a lawyer or, more likely, a party planner. Michael Bierut 34
EXPECTATION 6 | innovative business strategy EXPECtAtiON 6 innovative business strategy Knowledge of parallel principles of business is another increasingly prominent expectation that industry professionals look to acquire in new design graduates entering into today’s workplace. According to Angelo Carusi, Principal at Cooper Carry, Inc, “More than ever, clients are going to be looking for design firms who understand the client’s business. New graduates who have an understanding of business and can present their ideas are going to have a leg up on their competition.” Graphic design curricula must take into account – there is no innovation without the connection to client objectives and business strategy. 22 When asked what new industry issue or trend he foresees that students in school need to learn now for future success in the workplace, Mike Sloan, Partner at Lippincott affirms this tenet by simply stating, “Client needs analysis, and businessdriven design strategy.” 22 IDEO, “Innovation Strategy,” http:// www.ideo.com/thinking/focus/ innovation-strategy/ (accessed February 13, 2010). We don’t get hired to make pretty things or win design awards. We get hired to solve business problems. James Bradley 35
