Designers often start presentations on the back foot as they believe they are merely presenting information, but the goal is to facilitate decision-making.
Presenting design ideas should focus on getting stakeholders to make decisions and determine the best course of action, not just sharing information.
To avoid rejection, designers should approach presentations more strategically and not like a used car salesman trying to sell something.
Understanding the importance of framing design proposals effectively can lead to better reception and decision-making from stakeholders.
