If you have anything resembling imposter syndrome, you know the dread of feeling like you have no talent at all. A lot of us can feel underqualified when going for a new job, a bigger client… and here enters the magic of a team.

Do we need talent as individuals? Sure – no agency is going to hire us if we’re drawing stick figures in napkins (and even then… maybe? There’s a need for everything, we can’t guarantee this won’t be a highly demanded skill in the future). But it’s when we work with others that we can be outstanding. In a good team we share ideas, workflows and responsibility. Connecting with other designers (with people from any field of work, really) helps us shift our perspective and enhance our critical eye. We shouldn’t be afraid to share what we think and what we know – nobody’s going to “steal our creativity”. Different minds can work out amazing solutions.
