Collis meeting with some of the head office team to discuss the Envato vision for 2020. A Day in the Life of the CEO.
Well, Collis probably isn’t your average CEO. When I first joined Envato, his to-do list included such tasks as “Set up new blog install for Inside.Envato” and “Make business cards for teams”. I don’t know many CEOs that get their hands dirty with Nameserver updates and printer diecuts!
I wanted to share with the community what Collis does day to day, so I sent him an email asking if I could follow him around with a camera for a day. His first reaction was hesitation, ranging from “people don’t care what I do during the day” to “you’d have to wake up pretty early, Josh. Maybe not”. In the end, I managed to convince him to let me follow him around for the day, whether he thought it was interesting or not.
