Balind over at Interactive Hug drops some knowledge with his 5 keys to becoming a successful interactive designer. The short version is below, his explanation of the keys is here.
1. Talent
2. Education
3. Core Software
4. Experience
5. Attitude
IMO, Balind is right on, on all 5 keys.
I think the list which should come before this is
1. Honesty
2. Integrity
3. Loyalty
4. Communication
5. Have a good work ethic
Unfortunately, there are way too many designers which lack many or all of these qualities.
