Creative Leadership

Brad Lomenick author of H3 Leadership comes to Lobo Theater

My son Nathan and I had the opportunity to hear from Brad Lomenick at the Lobo Theater in Albuquerque for the Creative Team night presented by Calvary Albuquerque.
It was a no air air conditioning hot, but worthwhile event where Brad gave a short message about "Creative Leadership."
His points were (thumb notes taken on my phone into OneNote):

1. Allow yourself to fail
   1. The best creative's bring 100 ideas to get 1.
   2. It takes vulnerability and authenticity. Being self aware enough to be confident to present ideas.
   3. Most arrogant  leaders are insecure.
2. Be laser focused on the outcome, the product.
   1. If the best idea wins, we must allow for failure and negative reactions fall to the wayside. The best idea must win, no matter who it comes from.
3. Lead like your team needs to be led, rather than leading based on past leadership.

After his well received speech, he sat down with Nate and Stephen for Q&A from them and the Audience.
Overall this was a good session, but we need some aircon. Everyone was going crazy on those "pit stains!"  ;-)
