Oh my husband showed me the watch! Isn’t that the one that looks like Cartier’s Santos?
I didn’t know the CEO designed it…
EGO!
But you know why more of things happen? Because executives have a frustration towards creatives. In general, fashion, music, art is a given talent. Yes people can educate themselves in terms of knowledge and craft but creativity is not something that can taught.
Unfortunately, you have people who have an impressive academic bagage who are working for, sometimes paid under people who have a « god given » talent and who in the success of the company, gets all the laurels.
Once those suits acquired money, that becomes their legitimacy card to access creative circles. And in the end, they believes that they are part of that circle.
And the funny thing is that they are always wrong because their approach is always wrong. They are used to solve problems and they always look at things from that POV. And unlike a creative who is lead by his instinct and change in the society, executives looks at data indeed. So their creative solutions are always a respond to an emergency = short term.
