This week we sat down with graduating seniors Cate Ralph, Nick Keenan, and Saunders Smithwick to reminisce on their time with Into the Wild, learn about their most formative moments, and discuss what lies ahead for the future! We are so lucky to have had such amazing seniors guide us through a unique and challenging year, and we wish them the best in their next adventures. Stay wild.
Nick Keenan is the Chief Executive Officer of Starcom Australia, a Publicis Groupe Company. Globally, Starcom is known as the Human Experience Company and combined with the concept of People Powered Growth is designed to improve their positioning and point of differentiation. But what does it mean and how will it work for advertisers, media owners, their other agency partners and their staff. Nick and I discussed this to determine if this is a tangible advantage for Starcom Australia or not. https://www.trinityp3.com/2021/02/people-powered-growth/
It was a week of Google news, and fresh off the back of the Senate's hearing into the News Media Bargaining Code the ACCC released its interim report for the Digital Advertising Services Inquiry. Here, the team gives the rundown of its initial findings and chats about what the industry has to say now that agencies seem to be out of the woods.Three agency leaders also left in seven days. David Fox is off to Ogilvy Middle East and North Africa, while Justin Drape announced he was leaving The Monkeys and Colenso BBDO's Scott Coldham is simultaneously becoming the CMO of two different brands. Were any of these moves a surprise? And what is happening inside these agencies?Plus, Nick Keenan gives the team an insight into his experience taking over the leadership of Starcom while getting to know his staff working remotely. With transformation on the cards, Keenan chats about his learnings from the client side and the pivotal role talent development is playing in the future of the agency.
Recorded well before his appointment as Starcom Australia CEO, Nick Keenan opens up on running a quick-service restaurant for private equity owners, how a marketer-turned-CEO viewed marketing and agencies, why brand owners can be as dysfunctional as agency groups are accused of and how martech is presenting the same challenges as social and search did five years ago. Creative agencies, particularly, will be happy. Keenan thinks they’re underrated, particularly in UX and design.
