Fuel Creativity Creative is not a department. Run the wall--engage in the work and partner with creative directors. Inspire ideas and build on others. Stoke the fires with the client. Talk to them about great ideas outside of their business and set the stage for presentations. Manage the art of delivering client feedback to creatives. It's a critical part of the idea development.

Own Financial Responsibility The agency's money is your money. You are responsible for the daily financial components of the business and proper management of internal resources. You have an intimate comprehension of the P&L, scope of work and staffing plan, and how each contributes to the health of the account. Remain Curious Cultivate an insatiable appetite for understanding. Seek knowledge of the changing marketplace, emerging technology/media and how they impact opportunities for our clients. Maximize Talent Train, guide and empower the team. Provide radical, generous and ongoing candor. Be a relentless motivator and a champion for the agency. You are responsible for shaping the future leaders of our agency. Be Unflappable The team feeds off of your mojo. Be the level-headed voice of reason, especially during the difficult discussions. Optimism is contagious. Own the Momentum Continuously find ways to keep the idea team involved, informed and inspired. Setting agendas, meeting objectives and assigning responsibility for deliverables are all critical components that foster group collaboration and help cultivate a winning environment. Be the eyes and ears on the ground. Develop relationships with influential people on the client side and the agency side (not just at GSD&M, but also with the other agencies with whom we must collaborate). Be the leader in getting the right SWAT team in place. You have a unique perspective in understanding what the client is really trying to achieve--ask yourself each and every time, "Who are the best people, inside and outside of GSD&M, that we need to bring together to solve this problem?"
