Love This Podcast

Rob Campbell is the incoming Chief Strategy Officer at Colenso BBDO. Creativity, creativity and creativity are the key themes of this episode.

Julian Cole virtually joined us from Melbourne to talk about all things comms planning.

The formidable Strategy Consultant has worked at agencies including Naked, BBH and, most recently, BBDO New York. In his current role, he advises brands such as Uber, Apple, Disney, Facebook and Girlboss.

Together, we explored the art and science of strategy, how a T-shaped strategist might look and benefit your business, how and why to prioritise strategy on every brief, and his process to collaborate with creative, account service and client teams to deliver the best work possible.

It's one we've listened to multiple times and, if you aren't already subscribed to his Planning Dirty Academy, we'd highly recommend it: https://www.planningdirty.com/

Steve Lesnard is the CMO and Head of The North Face product creation engines across apparel, footwear, equipment & merchandising.

Following two decades at Nike, we wanted to dive deeper into his experience of running global brands and teams, the changing responsibilities of a CMO, his viewpoint on long & short-term marketing, his relationship with in-house and agency teams, and where he sees our industry heading in the next few years.

One of the smartest marketers on the planet, Steve shares 51-minutes of practical advice that you won't find in a textbook.

And by jove, we enjoyed every minute of it!

In June 2020, we had a chat with Jessica Martin - Former President, We're Magnetic - about all things experiential, technology and live marketing.
