191: Coach Rob Schwartz, Part 1

Creative Director. Executive Creative Director. Chief Creative Officer. CEO. Chair. And now Certified Coach. All the aforementioned at TBWA\Worldwide. First in Los Angeles, then in New York.

Rob Schwartz has worn many hats in his illustrious career. He was even my boss at Team One Advertising in the late 90s before he moved on to TBWA\Chiat\Day. And today, he is our guest for Part 1 of a two-part conversation.

We covered many topics: Rob's career path—did you know he was almost a lawyer? We talked about how to determine a good idea. The importance if clarity and simplicity in an idea. What is a good creative brief? How he finds and hires good people.

Watch and listen to a master leader, teacher and coach share his insights on more than two decades of shepherding great brands for great agencies.

Plus a special thanks to David Moore for pinch hitting for Henry Gomez who did his best to avoid Hurricane Milton.
