Creativity as a Leadership Tool with Andrew Masters

Creativity is not just for "creative people." In this episode of Ignite the Frame, we sit down with Andrew Masters to talk about how creativity can become a practical leadership tool for organizations, teams, and communities. Andrew shares why leaders need to make space for experimentation, play, brainstorming, and even failure if they want to build cultures that can adapt to change. We also explore how creativity helps organizations stay relevant, engage their people, and move away from fear-based thinking toward a more open sense of possibility. This conversation is for leaders, marketers, communicators, and teams who want to create work that feels more human, more responsive, and more connected to the people they serve.

Before You Film, Think Bigger

Production takes time, money, people, and planning — so how do you make sure the footage you capture gives you as much value as possible? In this episode of Ignite the Frame, we talk about how organizations can get more out of their video shoots by thinking beyond the first deliverable. From planning for multiple uses, to capturing content that works across social media formats, to building a video library your team can actually access, this conversation is about making footage more flexible, more useful, and more valuable over time. We also discuss how to avoid dating your content too quickly, why stakeholder conversations matter early in the process, and how video can support everything from marketing campaigns and recruitment to training, presentations, awards submissions, and internal communications.
