Episode 3 in the Female Workforce series by Sue Higgs
Hello there, so please you've found our channel, welcome to this mini-series which exploresWomen in the Creative Workplace. In today’s third episode, Sue Higgs explains the differences between ‘Soft’ and ‘Hard’ Industries and, more importantly, which one suits your work style.
Ever found yourself wondering whether you fit better in a fluid, creative environment or a structured, rule-based one? From the flexible, free-flowing vibe of advertising, design studios, and film production (what we call Soft industries) to the rigid, rule-driven world of banking and corporate offices (Hard industries), today, we’re breaking it all down.
Sue’s here to share her experience and insights on the pros and cons of both environments—where creativity and innovation thrive versus where structure and predictability provide clarity. We’ll talk about everything from hybrid working options to understanding what your work culture truly needs, helping you find the best fit for your personality and work preferences.
So, grab a coffee, get comfy, and let’s figure out where you truly belong in the professional world. Whether you’re all about that flexibility or you crave clear boundaries, this episode is for you!
Let’s get into it!
