Or another good one topic, when you become a Creative Director you don't do anything creative anymore.

Also warn them that 9 times out of 10 they’ll have to work into someone else’s idea.

Hello Partners, I’m currently a SC at D and started my career here - but went to a third tier MBA school. I have received top ratings throughout my career thus far and it’s my ambition to make it to partner one day. Will the lack of a prestigious MBA deter me ? Or will someone who went to a top 10 college have a leg up? Would like to hear your thoughts, thanks in advance!

Does anyone have any articles/resources/studies that prove common design legibility concepts? I.e. using multiple columns of text in an article vs spanning an entire width of page, or using images for visual resting space, or using varied type/design treatments to create hierarchy. I’m encountering content marketing folks who “consider themselves designers” and are directing me in ways that create walls of text. Apparently my ten years of design experience (and common sense) isn’t enough.🤯
