Teamwork isn't always easy. Yet, we work with others because we know the final product will benefit from everyone's unique expertise. We can't work it alone. As a designer, I'm better off with an editor, a project manager, client input, and any other feedback that is available. Those perspectives and skills just offer more than I could on my own.
