Claiming Your Seat at the Business Table

Hey Creatives! If you’re wondering how you can raise the value of your current creative work, role, team, or department inside your organization to get a seat at the business table, this episode is going to give you the tools and insight you need! Join me as I chat with Head of Brand & Creative, Kim Vandrilla, as she shares her career journey. We’ll talk about how to find the right moments to influence others (without bulldozing your way into meetings...) and how build the relationships and trust required to allow other business leaders to see you as a strategic partner, and not just someone who simply “makes it pretty.” If you’re feeling misunderstood, hidden, or undervalued in your current position, or want to shift gears into creative leadership mode, this is the episode for you! LET’S ROCK! Connect with Kim...
