A View From An AdGuy: What Ever Happned to Creative Skirts

About A View From An Adguy

I wasn't sure I would ever get into this blogging thing... ever. But the time has come and here is the home of my thoughts, advice, references, tales, passion and feelings on advertising and the life involved within.

When I decided this was to be a "new" method or additional "voice" to my teaching, motivating and inspiring for my students and friends, my first thoughts turned immediately to time.

TIME! Something we all value and never seem to have enough of. That will be my guide. TIME. I will use mine wisely and respect yours, making the post relevant and timely.

So welcome. Spend some of your valuable time here hopefully to learn, share, be inspired, and maybe even entertained.

What Ever Happned to Creative Skirts

Revised Posting:

With joy I came across a great site for women in advertising... specifically for my young ladies about to graduate.

Karen Howe and I chatted at AdWeek Toronto about getting more young women in the creative arena. I tend to graduate 6-10 young women as writers and art directors. But where can they turn to for career and portfolio direction? In a city like Toronto with some of the greatest creative female minds in advertising... hmmmmmm.

Here's a challenge to any of my "skirts"... how about getting this site on your radar.

Check out the who's who of the many great women in advertising.

Sadly the Mentorship microsite is out of date.
