This book really resonates with me and not merely because the authors use rock artists I worked with closely in the past such as Kiss, Led Zeppelin and Nirvana to illustrate the management theories which have long guided the careers of rock stars but which have often eluded corporate managers. They fearlessly puncture the bubbles of predictable, mediocre but "safe" theories that preclude breakthrough success in business and they do it with humor and passion. To borrow a turn of phrase from their instantly classic text, I am a big motherfucking fan of "Heavy Metal Management. Danny Goldberg, President of GoldVE Entertainment and author of "Bumping Into Geniuses." Do you see your employees as our most valuable asset? Are you keen on having satisfied clients?

This book bridges the gap between designer and design leader and shows pros how to define, value, and communicate their vision; find clients who are a fit; and master the art of being visible. Worksheets give designers the tools to learn these strategies and apply them to their work. It also includes candid conversations with design leaders such as Barbara Barry, Rose Tarlow, Kelly Hoppen, Vicente Wolf, Christiane Lemieux, and Martyn Lawrence Bullard.
