All of these lessons are provided in an attractive, easily accessible format so that readers can open the book to any page and find some actionable or inspirational insight or strategy. Readers will: Receive essential guidance on how to master the delicate balance required to successfully lead a creative team, like how to relinquish control while keeping the focus where it needs to be. Learn from star creative leaders in the entertainment industry on essential lessons they learned on their path to success. Gain insights on how to balance mastering the new skills you need as a leader with finding the time and energy to focus on the creative work you love.
