Figuring out Creative Leadership Report 2025

Being a creative leader is one of the most rewarding and most confusing roles out there. It demands skills no management book really teaches. I’ve lived that chaos, clarity, and constant figuring-it-out as I went.

So I’m asking: What kind of a creative leader do teams need? What do leaders struggle with? What helps creative teams thrive, and what quietly holds them back? How does one lead through uncertainty, scale, and everything in between?

This survey is divided into 5 broader themes:

1. Hiring & Skills 2. Creative Teams of today

3. Leadership Style 4. Team Management & Growth

5. AI & Creative Teams 6. Future of Creative Leadership

Your perspective will help uncover the real truths of creative leadership that rarely get discussed and shape the future. I’m grateful for your voice and your time. Thank you
