WE'RE FIGURING IT OUT

Dear millennials, Gen Z’s, and everyone else still trying to figure out how to get things in order.

First of all, good luck with that. Second, and, on a more serious note, What does ‘structure’ mean to you? If we’re looking into the dictionary definition, then structure is “the arrangement of and relations between the parts or elements of something complex.” But, if we’re choosing to be more realistic, then structure refers to having a certain order to things that work out for the time being (architects and contractors, please ignore this).?

In our humblest of opinions, there are certain procedures, such as logistics, where having a rigid system makes perfect sense. But, if you’re working in the creative field, don’t just embrace the chaos, but bask in its eternal glory. If you’ve taken the time to read our prior ‘YEAH, WE CAN DO THAT’ & ‘I WORK WELL UNDER PRESSURE’ articles…thank you. But, seriously, you’ve probably understood it when we tried to portray how working as a creative agency comes with an endless plethora of experiences and demands.?

Staying flexible as a team and as a business can be seriously challenging, but it generates wonders. So, next time you see a content creator, strategist come up with an idea out of the blue, know for certain that they garnered that skill by delving into the widest spectrum of challenges. At the same time, managers, please be wary of how far you can push the envelope before people start burning out. When time/pressure allows it, make sure you make changes that encourage your team to keep up with that rhythm in the future. No, office pizza doesn’t count.
