MTV Creative Director, Sven Muller, Shares Some Unusual Career Tips  February 8, 2012

Sven Muller is the creative director of MTV Australia, a job that requires him to create a visual unity across the entire MTV brand, as well as keeping the channel’s image young and 'cool'. In plainer terms: he makes everything with the MTV logo on it look good.

At Start Up Sven gave some unusual tips for career success: “Fail. Failing is nothing you should avoid or be afraid of, the more you learn from it, the further you’ll get. I would like to encourage you to fail today and win big tomorrow.”

If you’re interested in more advice from Sven, or you’d like to know more about what he does, and how he came to do it, check out the below video. But if you’re looking for a muscle-bound practitioner of sensual Swedish massage you'll have to try RedTube.
