Strategy, policy, governance and culture work tends to be client confidential. Here's a sample of projects I've worked on in previous roles and as Open Studio.
Strategic designers apply the skills and techniques of traditional design (like architecture, in my case) to complex, systemic and often abstract challenges.
A strategic designer:
works collaboratively and openly with stakeholders
helps make sense of big-picture problem spaces
works iteratively, framing and reframing challenges and ideas
facilitates prototyping, drafting and sketching to maintain momentum
develops visuals, maps, storyboards to make the intangible tangible
goes beyond consultation and facilitates participatory design
is future-orientated, mapping outcomes to close and far horizons
carries out design research with users to gain deep insight into lived experiences
synthesises disparate pieces of information to define clear directions
Good strategy deserves good communication. I incorporate visual design into all of my work, and also offer it as a standalone service.
