In this episode, Gordon welcomes Scott Redick, Managing Director of Retail Acquisition Strategy and Integration at Charles Schwab.

Lots of change has marked the last two years at Dentsu. A reevaluation of operations in 2022 kicked off a restructuring at the Japanese parent company that saw it eliminate the role of the international chief executive, then held by Wendy Clark, the departure of several other executives, including former U.S. CEO Paulo Fogaca and former global chief creative officer Fred Lavron, and the dissolution of creative agencies DentsuMB, 360i and Isobar. Since then, the network has brought together its two subsidiaries, Dentsu International and Dentsu Japan, as one operation. Chief executive and president of Dentsu Group, Hiroshi Igarashi, has taken direct control of all four of Dentsu's regions globally. And the creative shops that previously operated individually have come together under one flag: Dentsu Creative. Instrumental to the shift is Dentsu Creative U.S. CEO Abbey Klaassen, who stepped into her current role in November 2023, transitioning from president of New York. Before her appointment, she helped to build Dentsu Creative, which launched in 2022. Now, she is tasked with leading creative talent and direction in the U.S. as part of Dentsu Creative's global and Americas executive leadership teams.In this episode, Klaassen chats about her transition to U.S. CEO, her vision for Dentsu Creative in 2024 and what areas she is particularly focused on building. Listen to this episode or subscribe to Campaign Chemistry wherever you get your podcasts.  campaignlive.com What we know about advertising, you should know about advertising.

Born in central Tokyo in 1920, Rin Ishigaki was one of the most daring and gifted poets of Japan's postwar cultural renaissance. She knew Japan before the war, during it, and afterwards, saw it move from hubris to disastrous defeat – which included the destruction of her family home during one of the worst fire bombings of Tokyo in 1945 – to restoration into the community of nations. Her poetry is witness to this history as seen from her own specific viewpoint, that of a single woman working in a bank as the only support for her six-member family, at first engaged in labor union activities, but later moving to a politically more independent position. Her down-to-earth understanding of the politics of family and the workplace, helped to create her reputation as a writer of ‘life poetry' and as a poet of resistance, but this combines with a matter-of-fact, unsentimental, and often humorous intimacy with the ordinary creatures and things of the world, whether animal, vegetable or mineral, to shed an almost other-worldly light over some of the poems, even though they speak in tones and about subjects refreshingly earthy and earthly. Janine Beichman's skilled and deeply sympathetic translations of Ishigaki's poems in This Overflowing Light (Isobar Press, 2022) capture Ishigaki's breadth and depths in English, from the early postwar political poems and cries for freedom from family ties all the way to the late poems in which she contemplates her own death. ‘How else,' she asked, ‘could you write poetry except from your own life?' Takeshi Morisato is philosopher and sometimes academic. He is the editor of the European Journal of Japanese Philosophy. He specializes in comparative and Japanese philosophy but he is also interested in making Japan and philosophy accessible to a wider audience. Learn more about your ad choices.

Unmade: media and marketing analysis
How Kirsty Muddle is making the single-brand holdco a local reality, even if that means taking creativity off its pedestal

Unmade: media and marketing analysis

Welcome to an audio-led edition of Unmade.Today's edition features an interview with Kirsty Muddle, boss of Dentsu Creative, the biggest holding company yet to move to a single brand model.Tim Burrowes writes:The biggest implication of Dentsu's creative rebrand deserved more attention than it got when it occurred last June.The company was the first holding company of any significant size to move to a single global creative brand. Globally, that meant folding in DentsuMcGarryBowen, Isobar, 360i and its Dentsu-branded creative agencies. In Australia, this also included BWMdentsu, Isobar and PR agencies Haystac, and Cox Inall.From the point of view of legacy, the disappearance of BWM, the people who brought us Rabbits (or Father & Son as it was officially known) was perhaps the most significant.The bigger question: Is this the future of agencies? Not just a single creative brand, but with PR folded in too.During our interview, Muddle argues that the key justification is for their benefit of clients - simplicity. No more “splinter cells”.There is more to it than client-friendly simplicity. The major holding companies own more agency brands than they need, or are even viable in a world where marketers spend less with agency partners every year quarter.If Dentsu's logic is extended to its rivals, then the end point would see the already merged brands of WhiteGrey, VMLY&R and Wunderman Thomson eventually folded into WPP Creative; DDB, TBWA and BBDO merged into Omnicom Creative; Saatchi & Saatchi, Leo Burnett and co become Publicis Creative, and so on.That's easier to achieve for Dentsu, particularly in Australia, when it starts with fewer brands in the first place.Is it a strategy that agency groups would ever recommend their own clients follow? A lot of valuable heritage agency brands have vanished. Imagine if instead of Dove, OMO and Hellman's we just had Unilever soap, Unilever washing powder and Unilever mayo. During the interview, Muddle argues that sometimes the answer is yes.This may well be the end point for agencies, which are in their final years as we know them now. The multi agency group was an accident of their evolution - independents were acquired more for their client lists than they were for their output, so it made sense not to change the name above the door if it would risk that. And it was an answer to the perception that client conflict was insoluble within a one-brand agency group.During the interview, Muddle makes the point that when auditors or lawyers do it, they call it specialising.The value for brands of driving one idea through the earned media of PR and the paid media of advertising is also underrated. The few groups that have done it well needed both the right structure and creatives in place to achieve it. We'll see whether Dentsu Creative can do it.For Dentsu, if the proof is in the work, we're still waiting. Muddle joined a year ago; joint chief creative officers Avish Gordhan and Mandie van der Merwe came on board six months ago. Muddle argues in the interview that it takes 18 months for defining work to make its way down the pipeline.One answer from Muddle - who comes from more of a media than creative background - captures her pragmatic approach. “Do I understand and worship creativity in the same way? The truth is, I don't worship it in the same way. I really value creativity, I absolutely do, but the way it comes to life now is different to the way it once did.”Culturally, that's a good thing. Many of the internal problems the advertising industry suffered came from putting creative teams on some sort of pedestal. A dose of respect rather than worship is what the industry needs.Audio production was courtesy of Abe's Audio, the people to talk to about voiceovers, sound design and podcast production.Message us: letters@unmade.media This is a public episode.

Under hösten har den dock kommit att kritiseras och ifrågasättas från några av världens tyngsta teoretiker. Men hur har regeln använts och setts på hos företagen i den ack så komplexa verkligheten? Veckans podd gästas av Nils Andersson Wimby, avgående nordisk marknadschef på If och tidigare byråchef på Isobar, som länge intresserat sig för Les Binets arbete och delar med sig av sina erfarenheter om hur man tolkat reglerna. – Har man föreställningen att Binet och Fields arbete ska vara ett detaljerat facit för hur man bör agera är underlaget skakigt. Samtidigt har de själva aldrig gjort anspråk på att regeln handlar om mer än mediebudgeten, där ligger det på den som tar till sig materialet att göra en bredare analys av hur materialet ska tolkas.

In this episode, I interview Simon Smallchua, the Co-Founder at Harvey, a strategic marketing team and certified B Corp that helps conscious businesses grow, that is, businesses who are positively impacting one or more of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They create marketing strategies, implement and manage them, develop content, crush data, build websites and tailor messaging to get businesses where they want to be.  Simon got his first taste for business at age 9 and by age 19, he had started his own digital agency, helping small businesses set up their brand and digital marketing. He grew it to a team of 10 with 130 clients and sold it in his 20s. He then joined Melbourne-based agency Isobar as a marketing strategist and over eight years helped build the agency’s capabilities in analytics, social and experience design, and helped grow the team from 60 people to 350. Making the jump from agency to client-side, he headed up a global marketing team for a high-growth software and data company where he spent his days growing their US customer base. His wife started Harvey in 2019 and Simon joined her soon after. In their first year, they made $300,000+ in revenue and doubled it in 2020 despite the pandemic. They always make sure they spend 10% of their time managing the business and 90% working with their clients and make a point of donating 5% of their revenues to charity. Simon says the hardest thing in growing a small business is balance and that the one thing he would tell himself on day one of starting out in business is, “Take your time and grow slowly” Get ready for some world-changing inspiration that may make you wanna be more impact-driven with your business. Enjoy! This Cast Covers: Operating as the dedicated marketing team for impact-oriented and conscious businesses. The great opportunities that come with focusing a business on one area of expertise. Being the jack of all trades of marketing for businesses and how they eventually move out so the businesses can manage their own marketing. The career and entrepreneurial journey that led him towards starting Harvey. How things changed when they decided to focus on impact. Initial focus on keeping their team at only the two founders so they could stay close to their clients. Building relationships, mastering wealth building, and why happiness is not about money. Aiming at moving his time to be three to four days a week of work so he can work on more impactful projects. Being clear on your difference and niche, and tailoring everything to your target market. The beauty of a consulting business: Funding their business from savings but sustaining it purely from project revenue. Lessons he learned about cash flow from hiring the wrong people. Juggling long workdays and dealing with the times when he drops the ball on a project. Having clarity on where they deliver value so they can charge correctly for a product or service and not overdoing it. Why small business owners should master prioritization versus urgency. What B-Corp’s are really all about. The importance of building a culture founded on trust and authenticity.
