Shifts to art from science are fast reshaping the customer experience.
With increasing frequency, my conversations with industry colleagues and peers seem to evolve into a discussion around the impact of digital transformation on creativity. A year into my career experiment as an agency creative infiltrating one of the world’s largest consultancies, I have discovered just enough to be dangerous and not enough to lose sight of the blue sky ahead. For the curious, courageous and skeptical alike, I want to share some observations and nuggets of advice as a creative inspired by digital transformation.
Big ideas can come from anywhere—and anyone
Wait … wut? I know. Today’s workforce is packed with creative technologists, consultants, business strategists and inventors whose days are spent thinking up new ways to innovate alongside clients in the fast-moving age of digital transformation. And let’s agree: They’re extremely good at it. The world around us is an innovation lab and, as a creative, you’ll have to get used to the fact that everyone around you is pitching an idea that could become the next big thing.
