This is Rudy Fernandez from Creative Outhouse. This episode with Husani Oakley really answered some nagging questions in my mind about how to structure teams. There are skill sets from the past that are still valuable in trying to solve client problems. But also a lot of times they're not enough. Husani has created teams for the 21st century by going outside of our industry to create something that feels absolutely right for our modern world. I learned a lot from talking to him and I think you will too. Check it out. Welcome to Marketing Upheaval.
