Making money comes with a lot of baggage. Do I really deserve it? Am I worth THAT much?

Why are we so sensitive? Why do we hold ourselves back—both as business owners and employees? 

According to Forbes, 43% of millennials plan to quit their current job within two years.

Why? And what do millennials’ expectations mean for stability in the workplace? 

Whether or not you’re the person in charge of your business, you’ve gotta have owner mentality. Learn to see where your office is struggling, where it’s succeeding, and how your actions can directly affect the people you work with. 

We’re moving into 2019, so we’re gonna challenge you to set some goals. How can you have owner mentality?  What can you do to be a runner in the workplace? In Episode 16, Kristen and Stevie talk about what it means to think like a boss and strategies to help you get there. 

Personality tests probably make you think of a quiz you’d find in Seventeen Magazine or people who live and breathe by their star chart. But personality tests can give you valuable insight on how to communicate to your team. 

In the first episode of 2019 we’re explaining why we stand by the personality tests that we use professionally. These aren’t your typical Sorting Hat quizzes on Pottermore (although we discuss Hogwarts houses). These simple quizzes could help you manage your people better and get to know yourself on a deeper level.

You’ve had your holiday treats and waved goodbye to every distant relative that drove or flew into town. Now, it’s all about you. Let’s get back on track for 2019, together.

The final installment in our culture series is about the lifeblood of any creative agency: collaboration. Whether you call it a brainstorm, a meet-up, or a think tank—the meeting of minds is super essential.

Collaboration is a given at a creative workplace. But we’re not just talking about two interns troubleshooting together. We’re also discussing how a client’s collaboration can benefit or befuddle an office as a whole.

The second episode of our culture series has to do with the dreaded job of being the bearer of bad news: radical candor.

If you haven’t read Radical Candor by Kim Scott, you really should. And if you haven’t heard from real employees who are trying to implement it, you should listen to this episode! 

Company culture matters. It matters so dang much that we made a podcast about it! So, for the next 3 episodes we’re diving into our culture tenants and how they shape our every day.

It seems like being joyful isn’t something you can work hard at, but that’s what we do every day. Joy doesn’t come easy on those super tough days. And it’s nearly impossible to make a whole team of people feel joyful. But we’re sharing our secrets the best we can.
