In this fired-up episode of The Crazy One, Stephen Gates dives into the reality of the design industry today—where companies often fail to truly value creativity, even though it’s been proven to drive success. Drawing from his own experiences, Stephen reflects on the frustrations designers face as they see AI and platforms like Canva change the landscape. He challenges designers to stop being surprised by the lack of design appreciation in businesses and instead embrace this moment of disruption. It’s time to rethink the way we approach our careers, the way we connect with clients, and how we use creativity to stand out. Stephen encourages creatives to see this as an opportunity to grow, adapt, and take control of their futures, rather than just waiting for change to happen.
