Guiding Principles

For Mission Alignment

[1]

Truth Well Told

The tagline from the first agency I worked at, McCann, stuck with me. I try to live up to it, and I've found that only the most successful companies commit to this kind of work.

[2]

Decide and Adapt

Make it happen, and adapt when you get it wrong. It's marketing. It's life. 

[3]

Kill It or Bill It?

Know what's critical and deliver the absolute best you can. Kill it. Know when it's not the time for perfection. Bill it. This takes wisdom. I'm still working on it.

[4]

Credibility is Earned by Character,
Not Wealth

If you want to change the way the world sees your brand, you first have to change the way your brand sees the world.

Keep It
