Every manager wants to get the best out of the people who work for them. Although, as we all know, managing creatives has its very own nuances and challenges!
Co-developed for the design and creative industry with learning experts Invisio (as seen at Design Leaders Conference 2024), our ‘Managing Creatives’ workshops provide Designers and Creative People Managers with the tools and knowledge they need to excel as managers of creative teams in dynamic and ever-changing work environments.
Whatever stage you are at in your career, whether going from zero to hero or from senior manager to leader, these workshops will support you in your current role as a people manager or creative business owner, help you level up to a more senior role in your organisation (if that is your goal) or simply excel in your current role and get the best out of your team in any environment or situation.
Outcomes:
