The Pop Up Agency’s 9 Golden Rules

Lessons we’ve learned along the way that has manifested into our guidelines which we today apply in all areas of our work.

1. Goal
   Define a clear goal and make sure that all actions reflect the goal.
2. Same page
   Make sure that everyone is on the same page, both internally and externally.
3. Expectation
   Make sure to set the expectation, both internally and externally.
4. Agenda
   Set out a clear timeline of goals and when they should be achieved.
5. Don’t force stuff
   It happens to us all. The difference is how we handle it. It’s about acknowledging it and rerouting.
6. Less creative thinking and more creative doing
   Be more active and test your way to a solution.
7. Keep it simple
   There are tremendous benefit and value of keeping it simple.
8. Be present
   Ensure that everyone is fully invested and present in the room.
9. Don’t focus on the details, see the bigger picture
   No caption needed.

Remember that creativity is a mindset, not a skill and that we all possess it.
