The Business of Design: Contracts, Negotiating, Communication

Whether you're a new designer looking for your first permanent job or a freelancer hoping to work for yourself, there's a few things I wish someone had told me early on about: rates/salary, contracts, negotiating and communicating with managers, coworkers and clients. This is an informal talk about things I've seen and heard over my career and that of my friends, strategies to get the best outcome and time for some 'hypothetical' ;) questions from you.

I will give you links and resources I use myself for calculating my rates, the market rates and making proposals.
