@briancollins1 Wowsers! I’ve read the slide five times but always stop at the third word thinking WTF? It doesn’t improve much from there on. I wonder if we’re just being ironic 🤔

Kevin Finn @The_Sum_Of highlighted the importance of purpose. And that revenue is not the only measure of success for businesses anymore. “Without purpose impact is scattergun” “Every day we’re designing our future and history is watching” #nobs2022 @nobs_events #purpose #brands

@MikeTosetto Thanks so much, Mike! Yes, it’s finally out in the wild. It’s been a long, challenging and amazing journey so far. Of course, I’d love to hear your honest opinion. More importantly, I’m looking forward to catching up again (in person) soon 😊🙏👍🙏👊

The Design Conference last weekend was fantastic, and a privilege to share the stage with such amazing speakers. Big thanks to Matt Leach and Frankie Young for interviewing me on stage, and everyone I met in the two-hour book signing. It was humbling to meet you all. Thank you🙏

@MikeTosetto That’s pretty shitty. I only do credentials pitches or paid pitches—and very rarely. Requesting a free pitch is a red flag for me. The project or potential budget doesn’t matter. Requesting free pitch work is disrespectful and greedy. It says a lot about their (lack of) values…

3/3 Will we do it again? I'd like to think we won't... although those big budgets don't come along every day, and the 'idea' of winning is both enticing and exciting. But it's time and money invested into creative work that should have been paid for.

1/3 I like to say that we don't pitch, and for the most part, we don't... but we were recently lured in by a big budget in the 'hope' of winning. It felt futile, but we figured it was worth a shot. Days later, we put forward a a deck full of great IP with some awesome ideas...

Last Friday we launched ‘Open Manifesto: An Anthology’ at @semiglobal, and the positive response was genuinely humbling. I met some incredible people—and the book signing lasted an unbelievable 5 hours. Sincere thanks to everyone who took the time to say hello... 🙂🙏 @sandiedon

@The_Sum_Of Thank you @The_Sum_Of - I didn’t have a chance to exercise my patience. I was first in the queue. Thank you for a wonderful chat. So glad it was a long queue as that is indicative of the number of people whom you have influenced for the better. Thanks for sharing your gifts.
