Creative work is poor preparation for creative leadership.
This book is the missing manual for all the things you need to know when you stop being an individual contributor and start leading a creative team of your own.
This is a book with everything I could think of that I wish someone had told me before I started leading professional creative teams. It's the distillation of a lot of experience and everything I could watch or read on the subject. I sincerely hope some of you find it useful in your own work.
As someone new to a design leadership role, this book was exactly what I searching for. It has all the ingredients to help creative leads build a management playbook and set their team up for success. It’s witty, sharp, and honest…I honestly couldn’t put it down.
