And that's about it for the last 15 years - and i'm getting awfully tan by the lake. It's time to get back to work. Creative Director Bernard Hodes Group 2000 i was hired for three months to restaff a creative department. VP National Creative Director Austin Knight Chicago 1995-2000 Manage the staff (4 hubs, 47 people), operations ($60 million) and product (see awards) for the agency on a national level. This includes supervising production for the agency’s nine offices; leading the Chicago-based national creative team in developing and executing integrated marketing and employer branding strategies; and playing an integral role in introducing, implementing, and managing the agency’s Account Planning function. Well, somebody had to do it. West Coast Creative Director Austin Knight San Francisco 1993-1995 The powers that be were happy enough with my ACD work to promote and transfer me to the west coast. While there, I restructured staff, processes and procedures to raise the bar a few notches... enough to get me promoted again and moved home. Associate Creative Director Austin Knight Chicago 1990-1993 Got thrown into an agency management role and discovered I was good at it. Learned how to get the best from the talent. And how to get what I wanted from management. Art Director 1987-1990 Took my University of Wisconsin education and moved to Chicago where I worked freelance for three years. It felt like twelve. Awards Chicago Show 1999 Finalist - Banner Advertising Print Regional Design Annual 1997 New York Festivals 1995-1997 - seven Finalist Awards Industry Awards (EMA) - 65 since 1995 Philosophy Creative departments are like neighborhoods. The really interesting ones are aesthetically-pleasing, have a strong sense of community and are fully integrated. And of course, puppy dogs are welcome.
