Where you are
You designed sixteen screens and sent the full folder to your mentor because two research findings point in different directions.
Escenario 7 · Rol B
quien lidera el diseño junior
You need targeted support before your first client presentation
Esta ficha es solo tuya. La otra persona tiene objetivos y datos distintos. No intercambien pantallas hasta terminar.
Prepared but honest. This is your first project presentation to a client. They start. About 10 turns · 9 minutes.
Your screen only. Don't show it. Name the decisions you can own and the client information you still need.
Tu información
Lo que sabes y lo que necesitas
You want
You want enough review to choose navigation and explain the target user confidently in Friday’s presentation.
You can't
- Ask the mentor to present the whole project for you.
- Choose a client segment without written confirmation.
- Redesign all sixteen screens before Friday.
Only you know
- You prefer the simpler navigation and can defend it with five user tests.
- The client brief names “small businesses,” but a recent email mentions only independent professionals.
- You can prepare two decision notes by Thursday morning if the mentor confirms the format today.
If you finish with nothing
You either copy the mentor’s choices without understanding them or present a target user the client never approved.

Expresiones útiles
8 opciones| Purpose | Form | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| asking for targeted review | Could we focus on navigation and the target segment rather than all sixteen screens? | narrow the request to two decisions |
| clarifying the mentor role | I need you to challenge my reasoning, not choose the design for me. | request support while retaining ownership |
| explaining the evidence | Five of the seven users completed tasks more easily with the four-item menu. | connect the recommendation to observed behavior |
| holding the scope boundary | I can’t present independent professionals as confirmed until the client replies. | avoid turning an email clue into approved scope |
| offering preparation | I can bring two decision notes by Thursday at nine. | commit to the mentor’s review format |
| proposing the client question | I’ll ask the client to choose between small businesses and independent professionals. | send the scope decision to its owner |
| requesting presentation support | Would you join the opening if I send the confirmed scope by Thursday noon? | ask for limited support with a clear condition |
| summarizing the open point | I own the navigation recommendation; the client still owns the segment decision. | separate settled responsibility from pending scope |
Cuándo terminar
Closing criterion
Close with the final scope still postponed when both people record:
- The two decisions selected for review.
- The decision-note format and Thursday preparation time.
- Who owns the navigation recommendation.
- The two unconfirmed segment options.
- The Thursday 11:30 client decision and checkpoint.
- The condition for mentor attendance on Friday.
Success: You narrow the review to two decisions, commit to evidence-based notes and keep ownership of navigation. You ask the client—not the mentor—to confirm the target segment and record the Thursday checkpoint.
Después de hablar
Conversen sobre cómo les fue
- ¿Qué apoyo ofreció la mentora sin convertirse en dueña del proyecto?
- ¿Por qué la evidencia de usuarios sí permitía recomendar navegación pero no definir el segmento?
- ¿Qué quedó aplazado y qué quedó decidido?
- Resuman el plan usando “owns”, “reviews” y “remains open”.
