Thanks for clarifying.

I think we in design have over complicated things. What I've noticed is we don't speak in plain terms when selling design and to your point it's also down to empire building. And the dribbblisation of design - can't stand it.

I'm in a similar position right now - thinking about quitting this corporate design job and take a sabbatical to focus on refining and expanding my skillset and then join more meaningful projects, e.g. clean/climate-tech related projects.

Do you have a blog or newsletter? I'd love to read more about your design thoughts.
