Design Leadership with Richard Banfield of Fresh Tilled Soil
Richard did video interviews with smart design leaders across the profession. This desire to know what other design leaders think led to a book called Design Leadership.
Richard gets transparent in this interview as he talks about how he had to change as a leader - focus and patience were his initial downfalls that he had to change. True creative leaders will stop doing many things, and will instead focus on the one thing only they can do well.

- timeless
- disconnected from technology, and
- have immense focus built into them
