If you suffer from imposter syndrome, you are not alone.
The reason we do is that we're never given clear expectations of what we need to know. The Planning Dirty Academy addresses this by teaching the fundamentals and laying out the skills you need.
Your biggest hurdle to growth as a strategists is access to feedback from others.
This is the only way to learn and the private Planning Dirty community offers you this.
You probably don't have time to do an online course with all your work.
However the Academy is set up to save you time but giving you templates and downloadable decks to make your day easier.

If you are a strategist who is currently in the advertising industry (creative/in-house/media/pr/digital/social/design/branding) and looking for a roadmap on how to get to strategy leadership then the academy is for you..
I have broken the lessons into three areas beginner (Junior/Senior Strategist), intermediate (Strategy Directors) and advanced (Heads of Strategy)
The bullseye is for strategists who have been in their career for 5+ years and have moved into strategy from a different discipline (account/creative/producing) and are looking to quickly skill up on the fundamentals and take a leadership role.
