Meeting
Robert Carnes - F2F
Gist
Chris caught up with Robert Carnes, who is winding down at Green Mellen amid a leadership shakeup and looking for his next role. Robert is weighing an account manager offer being pitched to him by Katie Wagner at KWSM against a similar opening at Market Wake, but is unsure he wants to move away from creative/writing work into project management. Chris offered perspective (comparing it to his freelance designer Claude's situation) and connected Robert to Mark at Stratfield Consulting as another option to explore.
