You will define and analyse the strategies that make a designer a qualified and active partner in the dialogue with colleagues, clients and the media. Together, you will address the problem of how to improve the financial success of freelancers, responding to questions such as:
which quality criteria matter to wearers and designers?
How can I develop contacts with the media?
How do creative people analyse their strengths, define their aims and pursue them strategically?
