Jim Scatena, a legend in the creative industry, discusses what it's like to work with two of the most creative companies — Crayola and FloraCraft — and the life and leadership lessons he learned.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Keep an eye on your goals. They'll help you make the moves to grow your experience and expand your skills
Sometimes you can impact your most loyal market by creating a new market. Which turns you to finding new and innovative ways to motivate that original market.
Invest in making it easier for your customers (large and small) to order from you.
"Reserve the right to change your mind"— if you realize you're going down the wrong path (even if you chose it) you may need to change directions. Don't let your ego and pride get in the way.

SUGGESTED ACTIONS

Look at your goals, what skills and experience do you need in order to reach them? Go get it.
Build a culture of service and dedication where everyone is valued.
Listen to your customers and consumers, they're the geniuses.
As the leader, reserve the right to change your mind.
