if you think of yourself as a creative person and feel like your creativity gets squashed because “businesses hate fun,” the newest episode of Web Lunch with @whitep4nth3r.comyoutu.be/mMnm2BzOk1w?...

"Businesses hate fun" and other lies (Salma Alam-Naylor, Web Lunch)
"Businesses hate fun" and other lies (Salma Alam-Naylor, Web Lunch)

Presented by Sentry (https://lwj.dev/sentry) — How much of yourself is too much to put online? Salma Alam-Naylor talks about being a person vs. being a persona, aligning creativity and self-expression with business goals, and inventing villains as an excuse for not doing our best work. #creativity #career #happiness More about Salma: @whitep4nth3r https://whitep4nth3r.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- *WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE* ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - *Coming to terms with being extremely online* How much of yourself is too much to put online? Should we _truly_ be ourselves, or a persona that we inhabit online? This is... complicated. We dig into it. - *How to reconcile our creativity with business needs* Is it possible to be creative at a job that expects us to deliver business value? (Spoiler: yes.) Salma and I discuss how we find creative opportunities within the constraints of a full-time job, the power of learning the business side of things, and our strategies for connecting our ideas to monetary return to the company. - *How to get buy-in for creative ideas* It's possible to pitch and work on extremely fun, creatively challenging work as part of your day job — if we can convince stakeholders that it's going to get them great results. We talk about how to make the business case for creative ideas. - *What success actually means (maybe)* How do you know you're "successful"? Is it financial gain? Fame? Title? Salma talks about different measures of success that are more fulfilling than any of these for her. We talk about what kind of impact we care about — and which kinds we actively reject these days. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- *WHAT IS WEB LUNCH?* ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In Web Lunch, host Jason Lengstorf joins talented, successful, and — most importantly — _happy_ web professionals for a meal and a conversation. These experts have: - Built careers that are resilient in the face of an ever-changing software industry - Achieved proper compensation and recognition for their efforts - Found joy and growth in their work — instead (or sometimes on the other side) of burnout In each conversation, Jason aims to learn the strategies, mental frameworks, and techniques that got them there. Watch to learn how you can build your own resilient, lucrative, joyful career. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Get early access to new videos, exclusive bonus content and other perks, and join me in building a happier, healthier, friendlier web dev community! https://www.youtube.com/@learnwithjason/join ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 0:42 What does it mean to own the internet? 2:13 How much of yourself should you put in public? 3:55 Connecting creativity and business 6:32 Getting creative with non-creative constraints 9:21 What drives you? 10:18 Goal setting 12:21 What is a "good career"?
