Client Management: The importance of ”stripping away industry language” to avoid misunderstandings and deliver on business objectives.

Leadership & Growth: Ida’s personal journey into leadership and why personal development is crucial for leading creative teams.

Diversity in AV: Navigating a male-dominated industry and the tangible benefits of diverse teams in production.
