Behind The Scenes with Creative Leaders: How They Got There

Real Creative Leadership

We’re about to take away the mystery on how creatives build successful leadership careers.

We invested some decent dollars into a survey firm that polled hundreds of creative leaders … and we’re ready to reveal the exclusive results into what it takes to craft a career in creativity. In this episode we explore the research along with a panel of top creatives from world-renowned brands — Google, Microsoft, CreativeLive, Adobe — in a real, raw and honest webinar produced by The Stoke Group and hosted by Adobe Executive Creative Director Adam Morgan.

We’ll explore answers to:

  • How much does education factor into creatives’ success? 
  • What skills are needed to succeed as a creative director? 
  • How long does it take to land a creative director position?
  • Can someone from, say, a photography background be a creative executive, or do you need to be from a design or editorial background? 
  • Is there an age ceiling to a creative career? 
  • How do top performing creatives prevent burnout?
  • How do you stay at the top of your game — and lead others to do the same?
  • And … more.
