Chris is a Creative Partner in the Group of Humans, with a background as a copywriter and creative strategist, in both the UK and Sweden. Having worked in big agencies like DigitasLBi, and as an independent, he's spent the past twenty years observing how different organizational structures enable or hinder creative work.So this episode's conversation revolves around big ideas and big questions: What's the right kind of structure for getting creative work done? What’s the right kind of hierarchy for a creative organization, or do you need hierarchy at all? Does a creative organization need departments? Does any organization? How much should we specialize within teams? And how about physical offices or studios, now that we’ve got hyper-distributed teams and really good communication tools? As one of the founding members, Chris is extremely active within the Group, and very committed as well: he actually has a Group of Humans logo tattooed on his arm.
