    Related question for you guys. This job is an "official" job at my studio, this isn't freelance. Here's the deal: our typical practice with new identity projects is to open up the initial rounds to the whole print design team. Normally, that's fine and great. However...this is my church, I wrestled this client to the ground and brought it in for my boss, and it is obviously something with which I am personally connected. My boss told me months ago when we started talking about the project that she'd open it up to the office. Usually, whichever designer's logo gets chosen, that person becomes the lead designer on subsequent projects for that particular client. Fine, great – I'm a full team player on every other project. When I raised concerns about following this process w/ the church project to my boss, she said "Oh don't worry – you'll design it for sure." So then, if my role as the design lead for my church is a foregone conclusion, why include the rest of the office? Why waste their time? Am I missing something here? Does she not think that between me & her we can pull this thing off? How would you guys feel/act in this situation?

    • What if someone else's logo gets picked and I get bumped off the project? Is that cool?gramme
    • no thats not cool, but the reality, I had a similar problem in the past with a fashion clientmoamoa
