Simple is better — but harder. There’s no place to hide.

I will be sharing some excerpts from my forthcoming book on leadership called “Lead Like A Hobbit". I'‘d love to get your feedback on the bits I share.

Ideas and dreams are an important start. Execution keeps us from living in a fairy world. (Yes, that is a wizard’s hat and a genuine, battle ready, carbon steel, Scottish Claymore broad sword in the corner.)

When hiring a director/leadership position, the main skill set to look for is — leadership. A marketing company doesn’t need a Creative Director who can code. They need a Creative Director who can build a team and lead.

Leadership is not about natural ability. It’s a skill. You have to learn it.

I’m starting to blog again. Happy Birthday to me.
