Many creatives don’t think of themselves as leaders. That's too bad because the world needs more people to help us all become better through creative work.

If you’re a creative, you’re a leader.

What you produce -- aka “the work” -- is an extension of your leadership and is often a catalyst to inspired action.

  • Your writing
  • Your painting
  • Your athletic or theatrical performances
  • Your SaaS
  • Your social posts
  • Your courses
  • Your podcast
  • Your business

Each of these serves a purpose. As a creative, part of your purpose is to allow your work to lead.

Creatives Are Leaders, Too

Regardless of what you create, it serves as part of your leadership position in the world.

It speaks for you without you being in the room, leading others to think about things differently.

It is part of your leadership voice, impacting all who interact with what you create.

Your creative work shows us what’s possible.

Your creative work guides us towards new levels of understanding.

Your creative work reminds us what it means to be human.

It matters.

Please do more of it.
