Favorite books about creative leadership?

Which books would you recommend to a product counel for tech startup about strategy, management, and leadership?

Interviewed with EJ, RJ, and Stifel as a new advisor. which to pick? EJ offering way more base up front with small goodknight to start. RJ’s fancy AMP training program is just slap a yellow pages down and start dialing with little to no practice building training. Stifel seems similar to RJ, with less hidden customer fees, more flexibility on customizing your fee schedule per customer, and there is a possibility of the lead FA in the office retiring out soon with his 120m book.

Looking for an art partner to come in at the ACD or what my agency calls “group art supervisor” level.

Maybe a controversial question but, I'm feeling like I need a pick me up in this department. What's a good site or place to just look at nice, decent, normal men's pics or videos that's not a dating site, pron or model site. I'm depressed and feel like I may be too old or fat for a new relationship, and need some realistic but nice 'eye-inspo' to get me through and excited for the future. Weird, I know.. I'm clearly dealing with some stuff.

Going to 3% this year. Those who’ve been, how do you recommend getting the most out of it - for both myself & my company, who’s sending very few? Never been & know very little in terms of specifics.

I looked down at my boobs yesterday and they were wrinkly and old and I’m only in my 30’s. It took my aging cleavage for me to realize that this is what the stress of advertising does to you...it sucks the life out of you, it ages you. And it robs you of so much more than an a nice pair of tits. It steals you away from your loved ones during the times that matter, your health, and your self-compassion. And this is when I realized I have to quit this Industry.

What’s a good salary for a group creative director in NYC these days? I want to make sure I am actually asking for what I deserve as a woman.

In a mtg, a male colleague asked me, “Do you know what Blockbuster is!? Or was that before your time?!” I’m in my mid-thirties. I find this kind of question so condescending....

Been given an offer of 135k for strategy director for a large agency. 10 years experience and will have direct reports. Originally applied to associate but they thought director made more sense.

Does having a masters in graphic design, fine arts or advertising benefit you and help you move along in your career? Or does knowing the right people and type of company help you move along? I would love some advice about this since I’m considering grad school

After busting my behind for years, I am finally in a position to retire and live modestly. Problem is, I dont know what I would do with myself. I get depressed if I dont have responsibility and tasks and my ego is tied to being sucessful at my job. I rack my brain asking 'what do you want to do' and come up with no answers. My partner would still work. I know, 1st world problems, but anyone else at this point in their life?

Need advice please! Couple of inconsistencies:
I just started my new job today. When I interviewed, I was told my hiring manager was one person, today it turns out it's another person that I did not interview with.
I was told prehire that id be leading a team of 4-6 direct reports. I asked my boss today who in the dept of 30+ people are reporting into me. She says "no one for now" and she can't give me a timeline of when anyone would.
What should I do? Should I quit?
