Russel Howcroft

‘Work-life balance is bullshit.’ So says Russel Howcroft: ad man, media personality and TV executive.
Russel is a man of many passions, equally well-known for his appearances on ABC1’s The Gruen Transfer, as a board member of Melbourne Football Club and as a senior executive at the TEN Network. His new book, When It’s Right to be Wrong, offers a unique opportunity to see the world from Russel’s point of view; the spin king muses that ‘changing your mind is a good thing’ and ‘privacy is overrated, so give everyone your phone number’.
Speaking in Melbourne with host Jess McGuire, Russel Howcroft will challenge the way you look at the world as he reveals his thoughts on creativity and the power of the idea.
