J. Walter Thompson global CCO Matt Eastwood to give ‘Passion Trumps Talent’ talk on Wed, Mar 22
Aussie expat and worldwide chief creative officer at J. Walter Thompson Matt Eastwood will present a talk called ‘Passion Trumps Talent’ for AWARD in Sydney on Wednesday, March 22, 4:30pm at J. Walter Thompson in Pyrmont. Numbers are strictly limited. AWARD and TCC members $28.
Eastwood will reveals how passion and potential go hand in hand. Passion and imagination tend to be thought of as entities that can assist your career, but not necessarily make or break it. Skillsets are what initially qualify you for a job opportunity, and if you happen to be passionate about your profession, you might be one of the lucky ones.
But Eastwood says it’s time to rethink this misconception. He firmly believes that passion is the strongest indicator of potential, and prefers passion over talent, pedigree and a well-tailored suit.
No matter what the subject, people who are passionate about something are usually more passionate about everything – including their work. That’s why it’s valuable to have everyone from shoe lovers to Formula One afficionados on your team.
Learn more about how passion fuels a creative, dynamic work environment in this exclusive AWARD event.
