Having fun
James and I did a radio interview today. It was fun.
They asked me about how everything was going. I said I was having fun; we were creating stuff that was hopefully achieving good things for our clients.
I felt a bit guilty for having all this fun. I shouldn’t, of course, because creating a culture of head-down, shut-up, I’m-in-charge fear does nobody any favours. it kills good ideas before they can grow into great ones.
People aren’t delighted by seriousness. Have more fun.
