The Happier, Healthier Creative Business Workshop

Happy, healthy creative businesses are an ecosystem.

They’re founded on sustainable principles,
headed by creative leaders and
supported by valued, cohesive teams.

And they’re holistic.
It’s not enough to excel in any one part of the system — happy, healthy creative businesses are a sum of the whole.

This workshop introduces a tool to help creatives build a happier, healthier creative business.

Introducing the Happier, Healthier Creative Business canvas

The Happier, Healthier Creative Business canvas is a holistic tool designed to identify, analyse and benchmark 25 different principles of a creative business.

Personal principles like risk profile, clarity of vision and capacity to manage.
Business principles like costing and pricing, new business strategies and viability.
And people principles like resourcing, upskilling and understanding triggers that impact well-being.

The developers

The canvas was developed by Carol Mackay and Greg Branson of the Design Business Council, and Andy Wright, CEO of Streamtime.

This is a unique package. A combination of DBC’s business experience, ongoing research and knowledge from working with and mentoring Australian creative businesses; Streamtime’s data and metrics; and Andy’s understanding and passion for improving the mental health of creatives

The Happier, Healthier Creative Business canvas combines the research of academia with the practicalities of the Australian design industry.
