The Numbers & the People — A Streamtime Community Evening
Description
A healthy studio isn't just profitable — it's one where the business and the people in it can thrive together. The problem? Most creative studios treat financial anxiety and team burnout as separate fires to put out.
We think they're more connected than most people realise.
If you know your utilisation rate, you know if your team is overloaded. If your project margins are eroding, that's as much about your people as it is your finances. This evening brings together two perspectives — the financial and the human — to show how they connect, and what you can actually do about it.
Join us for drinks, canapés, two short sharp presentations, and honest conversation with people who get it.
