A creative agency run by accountants makes as much sense as an accounting firm run by creatives. So why do all global networks and most agencies have a CFO type at the end of the table? Let's take a closer look at why creatives need to step up and take back the creative industry before the numbers guys fucks it up more than it already is.

With almost 30 years of experience inside the big corporate networks Per Pedersen joined forces with a motley crew of free spirited creatives to form a new kind of global network: by The Network. They are 100% owned by creatives and that makes all the difference. They are now a year and a half and Per wil share what kind of mischief they have been up to since they started the journey, and he'll tell everyone to find the courage to escape the corporate grinder and run things themselves.

It's time for the rule breakers to lead.
