Leading Creatives - Creatives Survey - The business of Creativity Aug 09 - www.nigelcollin.com

Hi and thanks for taking part in this survey.

This survey is for creatives who work within organizations.

We will be putting forward a similar survey for managers and business leaders to see if there are any disparities. The objective is to highlight the pro's and con's for creative people working for organizations. The survey is anonymous and we'll be publishing the results down the track.

Appreciate you support. Any question please contact me at nigel@nigelcollin.com.au

Cheers
