“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.Art is knowing which ones to keep.”Scott Adams (Through Dilbert)
There is no ‘perfect’.
The talent bloodbath brought on by Covid-19 has taken out many of our most talented people.
While this is a tragic chapter in media, it creates great opportunity for those who remain behind.
The NEXT level of talent has a promising future – if we let them.
You might be reading this with a downsized staff and not your best guns on the front line.
Two words – be patient.
Not only with YOUR current situation but also with your current talent.
Think MENTOR – not MANIAC.
Also applies to non-broadcast talent.
How we treat emerging talent will have a lasting impression.
Creating and building a new show or developing fresh talent is a process – far from a perfect process.
YOU – and your talent – will make mistakes.
Let talent take new chances – make new mistakes.
Witness the art – keeping the ones that are winners.
Then shake it off and let them try again.
