I aspire to go client side as a long term career strategy but the job descriptions seem so much more businesslike than the brand strategy work I’ve done at agencies. It’s less about insights and inspiration and more about go to market plans, comms plans, testing plans, etc. Do I just need to get more experience and adapt? Or are there brands where a right brained, creative strategist could thrive?

I'm new to marketing and I am not formally educated in it. I have just been learning through experience with the business.

I can't figure out if I am overthinking something simple or lacking some knowledge that people formally learn in school.
