Just a terrific quote from brother Khoi:

What is the profile of the “new designer”?

The new designer is adaptable across multiple media and multiple
disciplines. She can design in a way that’s truly native to the web, to
mobile devices, to print, to environmental projects. And she can think
in terms of concept, execution, and the business equation as well.
She’s used to doing it all herself, but she can reach out to others
when she needs to—and orchestrate those teams to achieve her goals.
