Creative leaders worth their salt should know and remember these things before they judge any work, not just for awards duty but on a daily basis when assessing work from their own creatives, otherwise how would they know if an idea that has been done gets selected to be presented to a client as if it is new? The amount of incompetent juries that the award shows invite these days are so bad they’re speeding up their own downfall.

Recos for a vacation with my SO in mid-novemember. Thinking of hikes or any other outdoor activities (minus skiing). Can take a flight fwiw. Thank you

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed. I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out

I have no idea what's standard here

My browser history is failing me and hope y’all can help! I recently stumbled upon a website where some ad folks had compiled a bunch of idea/conceptual thinking approaches and if you clicked through there were past spots that had utilized that idea / way of thinking.

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.
