Values in Creative Practice

How do you design your creative practice aligned with your values? In this deep dive session, you will clarify your values and learn to lead with them each and every day.

This insightful workshop is for arts, design and culture professionals who want to deepen their understanding of the key drivers inside their business and creative practice.

You'll leave with a solid foundation to build your creative practice upon - and you'll have a lens through which to make decisions about future collaborations and upcoming projects. Navigating external and internal transitions with a compass like this can be career defining. We’ll also learn how weaving values based language into your communications can help you to build a professional reputation that is authentic and clear.
