Experts giving expert advice!

As a marketing leader myself I find real connection in hearing from this team of experts. This is excellent advice regardless of your role/level/experience. I learn (or am reminded of) something new every episode.

Thoughtful discussions around creativity

Adam brings a blend of inspiration and practicality to the discussions he has with creatives. The ability to hone in on the specifics of creative leadership, not just the philosophies differentiates this from other creative discussions. Keep putting out awesome content!

A Masterclass for Creative leaders

Adam is not only a smart creative with a wealth of practical experience, but he is also an excellent communicator. Clear engaging and concise. His experience as a presenter (he is a regular on the creative speaking circuit) shows here. The episodes are well-structured and contain very practical advice. Highly recommended.
