But I also believe that not just designers but anyone who wants to succeed in this industry needs to be a great communicator. It is also a skill most people don't seem to value.

Indeed. If you can't communicate. It's a dead end.

But speaking of designers, they are also scientist. They just don't communicate what they want to but hello loads of other things.

Visual communication amuses me no end. That's why I'm a designer - and that's why, IMO, every designer is a designer.
