Don’t Ghost The Client - A One Par Podcast S01E04

We're getting into something that's been on my mind for a minute: communication. Specifically, how creatives in Jamaica (and elsewhere) tend to go quiet exactly when they need to speak up the most.

Talking about ghosting clients, missing deadlines without a word, and the anxiety that comes with having a difficult professional conversation. I've been in this industry for over 20 years, and I've hired creatives for the better part of ten, so I think I have a little idea of what I'm talking about

We also hit a few quick takes on Protoje's new album "The Art of Acceptance," Jamaica Carnival, and the dancehall vs soca conversation that never seems to go away.

If you're a creative trying to figure out how to move more professionally, grab a seat, we dive in deep here
