What is it like working as a Creative Director?

Powerpoint is not evil.
Creative Director:
Tools are tools - even Powerpoint can be very effective for design communication. Learn the business. Let the business drivers determine the right design approach.

February 2015
Leaders tend to disregard the value of our work.
Creative Director:
My experience is that most CEOs, CFO's, and generally leaders have a 'default' of viewing the work and value as secondary to the vision and goals of the company, when in fact they could never achieve said goals without our work. Additionally, most CEO's and CFO's have no concept of how much time, experience and resources are required to achieve world class results, and often assume that world class results are 'standard' or 'normal' vs. Exceptional. I believe it is because our society consumes world class creative products all day everyday (commercials, products, media and so on) and take these things for granted.
