ULTIMO EPISODIO 🔗
“This place is nuts. I’m outta here.”
That was the note from a freelancer at an agency I worked at a while back. We’d brought him in for a few weeks.
He lasted a few days.
The note stung. Because he was right.
We’d gotten used to the crazy because that’s what we do in this business. But man, it was…

EPISODI PRECEDENTI 🔗
Years ago, I worked at Hill Holliday in NYC. Not the most glamorous work, but the people were fantastic.
At some point, our team grew to include folks from an agency in Greenville, SC called Erwin Penland (EP). As typical NYC-ers, we didn’t know anything about them. Or Greenville for that matter. W…
You know how almost every agency feels under-resourced?
What if that’s a you problem? Yeah, you. The one leading the work. Are you dumping your under-resourced nervous system on your team?

Can working on an Alaskan fishing boat make you a better agency leader?
Assuming you survive, it certainly can’t hurt.
Dave Maricich and his brother Mark had this experience as teenagers. While other SoCal kids were cleaning beach club cabanas, the Maricich brothers were swabbing decks, hauling mas…

🙀 The weekly (daily?) fire drill🙀 The wall-to-wall meetings🙀 The indecisiveness masquerading as niceness
Justin Bajan and his partner Dustin Artz wanted something different. After years…
Networking doesn’t have to involve a room full of strangers.
Or shotguns.
After Greg Roche was laid off, someone invited him to a networking event built around sporting clays—which is apparently like golf, but with guns.
Greg sat in his car thinking:
“There has to be a better way to do this.”

Especially creative work.
People need to feel safe asking dumb questions, challenging assumptions, and saying, “I have no idea what you mean,” before everyone wastes three days heading in the wrong direction.
We try to solve this with pr…
Work sucks less when it doesn’t suck the life out of us.
Obvious, right?
And yet, agency leaders spend a lot of time thinking about utilization, capacity, deadlines and deliverables—and very little time thinking about what kind of work actually gives their people energy.
So the brilliant strategist…
If you spend enough time reading about the agency business, you might think we’re all completely screwed.
AI. Shrinking budgets. Procurement. Tariffs and trade wars. Another holding-company reorg announced before you’ve finished your McMuffin.
But Stephen Brown isn’t buying the doom and gloom.
Afte…
“There’s gonna be some changes around here.”
Ruh-roh.
That’s the reaction most of us have when leaders announce an exciting new initiative, new tech or new process.
Why’s that?
Because people are hardwired to fear change. Especially in a world where everything seems rootless and chaotic.
