Something I wish was thought more to junior designers, but even seniors struggle with: It's okay to start with a stakeholder's solution. Just don't stop there.
You can't build great products if you don't treat people as partners. Our job, as designers is to balance all of it: stakeholder vision, users needs (I put accessibility in this), business requirements, while working in the constraints of legal, and sometimes technical ones too (I might have forgotten a few).
