Leadership can be many things, but it isn’t always fun. For every “pro” that comes with holding a leadership position, there is an equally important “con.” Ultimately, leadership is more of a choice than a position you achieve — and it's not a choice you can change your mind on when the going gets tough. In this episode, we unpack our thoughts on leadership and the philosophies we’ve developed throughout our careers.
Leadership can be as overwhelming as it is rewarding. To view leadership as a ladder to climb ignores the aspects of the job that are far from a reward. Whether it’s a plumbing issue at the office, concerns about this quarter’s budget, or a conflict between staff, when you’re in a leadership position, the tough decisions are yours to make.
In our case, we chucked out the idea of leadership being glamorous a long time ago. This podcast is affectionately described as “real talk about leadership and sanity in the creative industry,” so it seemed long overdue to have another episode on the topic of leadership. This week, we talk about how we keep going when wading through the challenges of leading.

Beer
New Holland’s signature stout features roasted malt with notes of coffee and chocolate. After a three-month stay in bourbon barrels, this rich, creamy stout carries undertones of vanilla and oak. This beer is best enjoyed on a crisp fall night seated around a bonfire or, frankly, anytime life is feeling less than a piece of cake.
Ingredients
Just the beer!
Preparation
Pour it in a snifter and enjoy!
