"No Man Is An Island" featuring Sam Bonds

This episode features Sam Bonds, SVP Group Creative Director at Barkley, who has cultivated a reputation for high character, charm, and a down to Earth spirit, while still delivering creative excellence. Sam recalls the fish-out-of-water feeling of his early years in the business, navigating the micro-aggressions of coworkers, and managing the emotions of a new generation of creatives. In our spirited conversation we even explore growing older in advertising, whether the industry values seasoned creatives, and how to best maximize our skillsets for the ultimate pivot.
