We're appreciating structure and its importance, but doing it in an intuitive way that doesn't stamp out creativity or make you seek to create uniformity per se — it seeks to create consistency and maximise creative potential.”Listen as Nahum and Rachel talk about strategy as a creative act, the importance of leading upwards, and how to use creative operations to manage teams — without micromanaging them.
