Beware a designer who doesn’t ask questions.
I mean «Why are we doing it this way?» type questions, not «How do we do it?» questions. A designer, heck, everyone in your company, should be curious about why decisions are made the way they are. A good designer takes every decision apart to see if they can put it back together better. It’s in every good designer’s nature to improve what they’re handed.
