What do artists and CEOs have in common? More than you might expect — and if you’re in the business world, you might just learn a thing or two from a sculptor’s mindset.
In this episode of CreatED, artist and Principal of The Art Academy, Rob Pepper, sits down with Matthew Brockman, Managing Partner of Hg Capital, one of Europe’s most successful private equity firms.
Matthew grew up in a family of master bookbinders — a world of precision, care, and deep craft. That creative heritage shaped how he leads today: with clarity, empathy, and long-term systems thinking.
Together, Rob and Matthew explore:
Why artists and CEOs both lead through vision and uncertainty
How creative processes mirror high-level strategic decision-making
What business leaders can learn from the adaptability and inventiveness of creatives
Why imagination is the overlooked leadership skill in both boardrooms and studios
And how embracing multiple career pathways is essential in today’s world
This is a conversation for the artist who wants to scale and the CEO who wants to think differently. A meeting of minds across sectors — with surprising lessons for both.
