010. The next right move, with Jill Lyons Final Final: Brand Storytelling and Other Conundrums
-
- Marketing
Final Final is talking to creative operations pro Jill Lyons about the one question every creative leader should be asking themselves: "what's the next right move?" Today, Jill and host Heather McG are covering how to say the things that need to be said, feeling the fear (but acting with bravery), and why a good creative idea can take many different forms. They're also discussing why the best creative leaders strengthen and deepen creative work, the art of knowing when to quit, and why some of Jill's most powerful leadership lessons were learned at camp. Other topics include understanding gendered racism in the workplace, why every decision is an act of love and fear, and the one thing every ex-Oprah producer knows by heart.
