Budget stewardship is creative integrity

observation — attributed to Nicole Peck

Peck holds full P&L responsibility for ITC Vegas and MAU Vegas, manages seven- and eight-figure revenue lines, and treats the budget like her own money. The point is not austerity. Commercial discipline and imaginative risk-taking are not opposites; they are partners. The story only works if the numbers follow. Imagination without P&L is theater. P&L without imagination is a trade show nobody returns to.

For creative leads who treat budget discipline as the enemy of imagination.
