Specialist vs. Generalist

Elise Pescheret

Ah, the age old debate of specialist vs. generalist.  Which is better?  Which is worse?  Who has it right?  Which one produces better work?  We could go on and on....

 

I recently read this article posted on Wired, "Why the Best Designers Don’t Specialize in Any One Thing", and had a thought about generalists.  Perhaps, we all are to become a bit of a "generalist" ourselves in our work environment.  On the same note though, that means that we can still be specialists that simply work in more holistic team environments, being empathetic and actively interested in what the rest of the team is doing.  Maybe it is just a matter of redefining how we, as designers, interpret the term "generalist".
