Podcasts about Wolff Olins

In this bonus Spark episode, Emma Barratt returns for a funny, honest, and brilliantly unfiltered chat with Katy Cowan. She takes on some of our favourite quick-fire questions — from the best advice she's ever received to the song she'd like played at her funeral. Emma shares her most controversial creative opinion (spoiler: not everything is "transformative"), the word that gives her the ick, and why she relates most to an octopus. She also opens up about OCD rituals, arguments she has to win, and the rejection that taught her the most — including the first time she applied to Wolff Olins. Packed with warmth, dry wit and big heart, this is the perfect follow-up to Emma's main episode on class, creativity, and carving your own path. This season is proudly sponsored by the School of Communication Arts.

In this raw and energising conversation, Katy Cowan is joined by Emma Barratt, global executive creative director at Wolff Olins, to talk about class in the creative industry, imposter syndrome, and the kind of diversity we don't discuss enough. With honesty, grit, and a huge amount of heart, Emma opens up about her working-class roots in Salford, the long road into the design world, and the resilience it took to get to the top. They explore why the industry still has a long way to go when it comes to genuine inclusivity—especially in terms of class and social mobility. Emma talks about how expensive cities like London continue to block access for many talented creatives and how the legacy of connections and privilege often dictates who gets a foot in the door. It's not just about ticking boxes on a diversity form—it's about meaningful, systemic change, and it needs to start at the top. Emma also shares her experience of imposter syndrome and learning to embrace her own voice, even when it didn't fit the mould. From overcoming dyslexia to navigating a male-dominated creative scene, she reflects on what it took to unlearn shame and reclaim pride in her background. We hear how she's now determined to be the mentor she never had—helping others who feel like outsiders realise their worth, whether they're neurodiverse, working class, or just don't see themselves represented. This episode touches on everything from unpaid internships and university barriers to the superpower of growing up without a safety net. Emma doesn't shy away from the difficult truths—but there's also humour, hope, and a rallying cry for change. If you've ever felt like you don't belong, this one's for you.

A CMO Confidential Interview with Paul Worthington, Founder and President of Invencion and former Head of Strategy at Wolff Olins. Paul discusses the “Weaponization of the Wanamaker Paradox” and how the digital revolution reduced marketing to a “little numbers game” in which the “I just don't know which 50% of my spending is wasted” resulted in an efficiency doom loop which stunts growth. Key topics include the fact that digital channels are now mature, how companies focus on the symptoms versus the cause, why “what gets measured gets manipulated and what is hard to measure gets ignored”, and why many B2B businesses are vulnerable due to chronic marketing underfunding.

As CEO and founder of The Sill, Eliza Blank is the ultimate plant person. Inspired by her mother's love of gardening and her own struggle to find plants for her tiny NYC apartment, she started The Sill as a direct-to-consumer houseplant company, bringing the benefits of plants to indoor environments. Though Blank had the initial idea for The Sill back in college, she didn't yet have the tools to execute it. So when she graduated, she actually began her career as a brand strategist at global brand agency Wolff Olins before moving to haircare brand Living Proof as a brand manager. But the whole time, she kept the houseplant business in the back of her mind, and in 2012, she made the leap. She left her job, created a Kickstarter that raised $12K, and The Sill was born.

The Olympic Games have come to represent the best of the best — incomparable athletics, state-of-the-art facilities, host cities that pull out all the stops, and of course, outstanding branding. In 2012 London hosted the Summer Games and wanted to capture the world's attention with an identity that would turn the notion of the modern games on its head. Sairah Ashman, global CEO at creative consultancy Wolff Olins shares the firm's design thinking for the brand that would go on to be one of the most talked-about, unforgettably modern Olympic Games emblems.

We speak to many people about how they got into graphic design. But we never expect anyone to admit that a dislike of their handwriting would set them off on this creative path. This was certainly the case for Alison Haigh. Realising computers were the answer to crafting neater typography, she fell in love with design. And today is Design Director at Accept & Proceed, a respected studio based in London that's behind identities for Dickies and campaigns for Nike. Alison has had quite the journey to get here. After graduating from the University of Brighton in 2009 – at the height of the global economic crisis – she had internships at NB Studio, Small and various other agencies. It was typical of that era – jobs were scarce, and Alison did all she could to get onto the ladder. Her determination paid off as she landed her first role at Nelson Associates. She later joined Proud and spent three years building skills and experience there before securing a dream role at Wolff Olins as a senior designer. In 2018, she became part of the team at Design Studio, but two years later, she found her way back to a smaller agency via Accept and Proceed. After spending 11 years in the creative industry, Alison realised there wasn't much support for the difficult "middle" – that part of our careers between graduation and the top of the ladder. So in 2019, she launched The Middle School to provide honest advice and practical skills to designers in the middle of their careers. By helping more people stay in the industry, realise their potential, and become better leaders, Alison hopes it'll be a small step towards tackling wider industry problems around diversity and mental health. In this episode, we talk about this and much more, including how she feels the industry is becoming more honest and vulnerable and why that's such a good thing.

Our guest this week is Marina Willer, an award-winning graphic designer and filmmaker and one of Pentagram's many respected partners. Before joining the global agency, she was head creative director for Wolff Olins in London. With an MA in Graphic Design from the Royal College of Art, Marina has enjoyed an incredible career so far. She's led the design of major identities, including Rolls Royce, Oxfam, Nesta and Amnesty International. She recently rebranded Battersea and Sight and Sound Magazine. And as a multi-faceted designer, she has even designed major exhibitions for the Design Museum, including Ferrari: Under the Skin and Stanley Kubrick: The Exhibition. Both were the most-visited shows in the museum's history. Elsewhere, Marina's first feature film, Red Trees, premiered at the 2017 Canne Film Festival and was released worldwide by Netflix in 2018 to much critical acclaim. She talks about it fondly in this episode and shares many other fascinating insights into her amazing creative journey. We talk about her process and inspirations. We learn more about Pentagram and how she feels about the world right now. We discuss the idea of "home" and how it feels to be in London post-pandemic. And she shares the joy of realising that work continues to surprise her, even after it's been 20 years since she famously rebranded Tate.

Neil Parker is the co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of co: collectiveOver a decade ago co: collective was born- founded by Neil, Rosemarie Ryan, and  Ty Montague.  Rosemarie and Ty had run the NY office of JWT and Neil had been the global strategy head of design firm Wolff Olins.co: collective's arrival on the scene caused something of a stir because it wasn't the typical start-up from senior ad agency figures- it wasn't an ad agency- it was a brand consulting company with a difference.As I learn in the conversation with Neil he brought something very different to the table from a strategic perspective. He wasn't your classic ad strategist, his background was in management consulting- so he brought more of a business perspective to the world of brands and branding.We talk about what this means, how co works, how it works with others, and discuss various developments that we see in the world of brands and branding in 2021.

Highlights from the conversation:Then you become a trusted advisor or partner who has got their back rather than a gun for hireWhen we, as an industry, get it right we add unbelievable value to the bottom line of a businessI definitely think there's gotta be a smarter way to be compensated for the work that we doBut the minute something's asked for free, then they have all the power and we're subservient to them. It's not healthyI don't think anyone feels that pitching is valid or valuable or adds anythingGreat work, in my opinion, comes from trust. And that trust comes from relationships More about Stuart WatsonStuart Watson is a graphic designer based in London. He started his career as the first junior designer ever hired by Wolff Olins.

Highlights from the conversation:You collect ideas by looking around the world and doing things, and all of those things form a vocabulary of ideas that you then come to useI always try and encourage young designers to not just look at design – to look wide and experience wideThings lead to other things. The more you collect ideas, the more you will have opportunities to make them happenIt's important that we create systems that are open and easy to flex to accommodate audiences as they participate in what you've createdWe shouldn't just do ‘adaptable' for the sake of it, we should understand the role that each organisation playsThe work is also the journey.

En este caso han sido diseñadores de empresas como Apple, Adobe, Pentagram, Wolff Olins o Cooper Hewitt entre otros. Las instrucciones de Pussy Hat, el Tesla Model S, el iPad, la web del gobierno británico gov.uk o el teclado emoji han sido algunas de las creaciones destacadas. Casi todas las piezas han destacado por la ayuda que han proporcionado a los usuarios y la incidencia que han tenido en su contexto social o digital. Mientras unos siguen exigiendo diseños hechos por y para diseñadores, otros destacan la practicidad de enfocar el producto al público objetivo. https://www.fastcompany.com/90442092/the-14-most-important-design-ideas-of-the-decade-according-to-the-experts Tiendeo y Google crean una nueva herramienta para maximizar eficacia de campañas Esta nueva herramienta permite a los retailers crear campañas locales en Google AdWords y Google Search, maximizando la eficacia de sus campañas drive-to-store.

En lo que a los usos se refiere, los reyes son los asistentes de voz en los teléfonos móviles.

Madrid, Málaga, Valencia y Bilbao han sido testigos de unas lonas con una felicitación de CocaCola que, mediante un sutil juego de palabras, ha deseado una Feliz Navidad a su rival Pepsi. La buena gente de Pingüino Torreblanca ha creado esta pieza que subraya el mensaje del gigante de los refrescos en el que invita a disfrutar de las cosas que nos unen y olvidar los rencores y malos rollos. Desde Filispín darles nuestras felicitaciones e invitarles a mantener el nivel de piezas así. https://lacriaturacreativa.com/2019/12/19/coca-cola-felicita-la-navidad-sutilmente-a-pepsi-en-estas-lonas-publicitarias/ Ya está circulando “FakeMe”, el anuncio de Campofrío Como cada Navidad, Campofrío y McCann Worldgroup lanzan uno de los anuncios más esperados del año. La fórmula se repite: Famosos parodiándose a sí mismos en un entorno un tanto surrealista con un mensaje cargado de crítica social. Este año la historia nos la presenta el director Daniel Sánchez Arévalo y la protagoniza el actor Javier Gutiérrez quien ya debutara en el mundo de la publicidad de la mano de Amstel. Entre los famosos destacan Iker Jiménez, Brais Efe, Cristina Pardo o Susi Caramelo entre muchas más personalidades. La crítica este año ha sido para la desinformación y las fake news, haciendo un llamamiento a la vuelta de la información veraz y de calidad. Un mensaje que muchos portales deberían tener en cuenta. Incluídos los de los grandes medios, que a cambio de conseguir visitas han perdido una buena parte de su credibilidad. https://lacriaturacreativa.com/2019/12/17/fake-me-el-anuncio-navideno-de-campofrio-2019/ Esto es todo por esta semana.

From how he got his first clients, the importance of branding, founding Wolff Olins and stories about his time in the army – British graphic design legend Michael Wolff reveals details about his past never heard before in this first episode of 'Michael Wolff Telling Stories'.

We’re at the Design Conference in Brisbane and we had the opportunity to sit down with Amanda Munilla, Managing Director, at Wolff Olins.    Amanda, not a designer by trade has had a non-linear path into managing at one of the biggest creative firms in the World. Deciding not to be a lawyer was only the beginning and she has since gone on to build a strong career in strategy. With that in mind, we get into what strategy means, how it’s changed and how Amanda explains it to clients.     Amanda is also a big supporter of Womentor. So we get into what it is, why she got involved and why it’s needed in the industry — now more than ever. We touch on the fact that Wolff Olin's office heads, around the World, are all female. Amanda has a lot to say on this and is passionate that diversity isn’t a token action. Huge thanks to Prue Jones and Andy Wright who co-hosted, our mates at Streamtime and The Design Conference.

Mel McShane has spent well over a decade at renowned design agency Wolff Olins and consults with executives around the world on their brand strategies.

We discuss: - Where brand strategy happens - How Mel approaches brand strategy - Interviewing people vs running people through questionnaires You can find Mel here: http://linkedin.com/in/melanie-mcshane For more strategy talk: 1.

For what seems like forever, we've been told we live in a “consumer society” – we are defined by how we spend, it is our most important expression of ourselves, our aspirations and our politics. And, while still a powerful concept, some have argued that we are sliding into a new era: a citizen society. Instead of simply a choice to purchase or not, we are feeling a greater power to influence through participation. We expect the brands we engage with to reflect our values – not just sell to us. Meet our speakers: Robert Jones, Head of New Thinking at Wolff Olins and Jon Alexander, founder of the New Citizen Project

Forest Young is head of design and a global principal at the branding consultancy Wolff Olins.

Forest Young is the global principal and head of design at Wolff Olins, and let me tell you...he's a busy, busy guy. Whether he's serving as a design critic at Yale University (his alma mater) or or overseeing award-winning design projects, Forest brings a high level of observation and specificity to his work. We start off talking about one of Wolff Olins' recent award-winning campaigns Dotdot, and that spurred a discussion about the ethics of bleeding edge future design, and even access to meaningful design criticism through education. One thing Forest says is that dream projects are never in the wrappers you expect them to be, and I totally agree with that.

"As a designer, we think as a brand...so I always try to make myself a brand." Olivia Brestal is a multi-talented midwestern creative that grew up in the soccer capitol of the U.S., so it's only fitting she has spent the entirety of her post-grad career creating for professional soccer clubs. As a sr. designer & photographer for Sporting KC, Olivia joins the podcast to discuss how she developed her work's aesthetic, her inspirations in illustration and sports photography, and her move to Texas where she worked for FC Dallas.

The word brand is very complex, yet it is thrown around a lot these days; most of the time carelessly or in complete ignorance as it regards to what a brand is. In this episode of Halftime, I discuss the origins of branding, its definition according to the American Marketing Association, as well as dive deep into the semantics of the word and what it means in the modern era. I also give specific examples of brands in the sports context such as Kentucky Basketball, Oregon Football and the New Zealand All Blacks, as well as discuss the complexity of a college athletic department's brand in relation to an individual program's team brand. How much do brands have to do with a team being picked in the College Football Playoff? I touch on a recent article by ESPN's Heather Dinich and elaborate on the importance of trust and equity when it comes to brands. Lastly, I discuss color, it's signifance in branding and share why there are more important things than a logo when it comes to branding.

We had a talk with graphic designer Rejane Dal Bello at the What Design Can Do-conference in Amsterdam. This strong visual designer never stops working, drawing and visualizing ideas. We asked her why she left her home country Brasil to study in New York and The Netherlands. She tells us that all of her decisions regarding life and design are based upon the ability to develop herself and to add something to the world. This is the reason she doesn’t mind working pro-bono for projects that matter, like developing a visual identity for a Peruvian Children’s hospital. We also talk about her heroes, teaching and if she calls herself a Dutch designer after working at Studio Dumbar for 8 years. She tells us life happens and that she can never really plan ahead, recently that brought her to work in London at Wolff Olins. Recorded at the What Design Can Do 2012, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
