Moving On Up to Management The NDA Podcast

- Arts
Good managers and bad managers. We’ve all had them. And do we all become them?
In today’s episode, we’re going to be discussing progression in the creative industries, and the realities of updating your LinkedIn status.
After years spent learning a craft, creatives are promoted into roles where they’re taken off the tools and dropped into resourcing meetings. A leap that doesn’t suit everyone — are there other ways to move up the ladder? Are we all suffering at the hands of those pushed into management before they’re ready?
We’re talking to Kim French, Head of Production/Marketing at Preen, who shares her decision to step down from the boardrooms and budgets in order to be closer to the work she loves. Senior Designer at JKR, Maisie Benson, discusses what it’s like to be in the grey area between Designer/Director, and the pressure to choose between your craft & your career. Along with Gerald Torto, Practice Director at Re about the importance of job titles and how we can use them to our advantage.
Plus a whole lot of stories from the DMs about the worst managers out there. One not to miss.
