GET TO KNOW: Kristen Doyle

This management company thrives on surrounding ourselves with brilliant consultants. These creatives bring a huge part of the success to our team and clients. Everyone who consultants are amazing people at the top of their game. But, for me personally, I couldn’t possibly start this exciting new highlight of Work Wednesday without the ultimate debut of my incredible friend and someone who I admire daily for their creative passion, brilliance, uniqueness, kindness and supreme talent; the one & only Kristen Doyle aka Noodle (her company is @killanoodle).

LIFE OF PI: A June/July Update

Ok twentytwenty, you’re trying to break us but we are still breaking new ground over here in Team Private Idaho. June and July: we are getting through you with flying-and-busy-colours! Guy’s insanely beautiful new single “Standing With You” was released on June 26th, and along with it, one of Guy’s most stunning music videos to date… yes, the rains came down on that shoot (I promise it was purely coincidence that it rained inside that studio at the exact perfect time) and along with it the freezing cold temps but the result was certainly spectacular. Seriously, we can’t contain the outpouring of messages that have come in from this beautiful song – thank you and keep sending us your notes and stories. They are our reason.

GET TO KNOW: Lauren Stamper

I think probably kindness is my number one attribute in a human being. I’ll put it before any of the things like courage, or bravery, or generosity, or anything else …. Kindness – that simple word. To be kind – it covers everything, to my mind. If you’re kind that’s it (Roald Dahl)

MUSIC NEEDS YOU: A Letter from Jen

I originally wrote this essay 22 days into LA lockdown on the day one of music’s greats, Bill Withers, passed away. I was delayed in writing this piece due to a family member having to re-enter treatment back in Sydney and listening to Bill’s music re-wired me, and gave me inspiration to write again. This is the power of music. And so to complete this a final time, I took the time to listen once more…

GET TO KNOW: Mandy Perry (Whitehead)

The way to achieve your success is to be willing to help somebody else get it first (Iylana Vanzant)

This Iylana quote personifies Mandy & yet probably doesn’t give her enough credit. She is truly one of the kindest, well intended, and consistent team players. Mandy has the best intentions for all the projects she works on and keeps a positive mindset and good humor at the ready to diffuse high intensity days. For me, if Mandy is quarterbacking work, you know it will be done thoroughly and as fast as possible. She is the Queen of setting up tours and is meticulous in her planning and creative approach to a unique tour run which is key in a competitive market. There are not enough adjectives or kind words to say other than, she makes every day better and I long for the time for a great catch up with Mandy each week and then a random general knowledge fact that can come at any time during the conversation!
