But that can wait. In this episode, Gerry Scullion shares three things that actually build credibility in those critical early weeks: being useful to the people around you before advancing your own agenda, adapting your language to fit their world instead of leading with jargon, and documenting every small improvement so you have real evidence when it counts. Credibility is not built on a single presentation. It is built through consistent, visible contributions that make people want to involve designers more often.________________________→ Train my organisation https://www.thisishcd.com/training→ Designing for Social Impact with Service Design with Gerry Scullion (and Rachael Dietkus) at Belfast Design Week https://belfastdesignweek.com/events/designingforsocialimpact-withservicedesign________________________BECOME A MEMBER (IT'S FREE!)→ Take the FREE Introduction to Journey Management course with Marc Stickdorn & Gerry Scullionhttps://www.thisishcd.com/learning/introduction-to-journey-management→ Discover & Connect with others https://www.thisishcd.com/directory → Claim partner discounts https://www.thisishcd.com/partners → Submit an Article https://www.thisishcd.com/blog → Video Courses https://www.thisishcd.com/courses________________________
