We are design believers and we love growth.
DESIGNLADDER is online coaching for designers. We help designers get a grip on their growth.
Founders Freek and Tim go a long way back. Tim co-owned a consultancy that helped design leaders in building design processes, cultures and teams at companies like LEGO, B&O and Roca. Freek, fresh off a professional sports career, came on board to build an additional brand, focused on design leadership education. It ended up educating 1000s of design leaders from agencies and companies, and powering design academies at LEGO, Unilever and Telenor.
After years of building businesses, coaching and educating, Freek & Tim decided it was time to tackle a new challenge: to bring their expertise online and help way more designers grow. DESIGNLADDER was born in 2018.
At DESIGNLADDER, we believe that when designers grow, the world becomes a better place.
We’ve worked with so many designers. We share their tics and know what makes them tick.
We use design methods to create and run our app, service and business. It feels close to home.
