Creative Operations Australia 2026

Mike Kevan is a creative leader, systems thinker and recovering believer that good work should simply speak for itself. As Design Team Lead at Coles Creative Services, he helps in-house creative teams build trust, influence and strategic value inside large organisations.

A previous speaker at Creative Operations Sydney, Mike is interested in how creative teams move upstream: from high-functioning output machines to trusted partners in judgment, decision-making and meaning — ideally before good ideas are gently murdered in sensible meetings.
