In this episode of Spikes Excitement Talks, Gordon sits down with Suzanne Powers, Founder and CEO of Powers Creativity and former Global Chief Strategy Officer and President at McCann Worldgroup. With a career that has shaped some of the most iconic agencies—including TBWA, Crispin Porter + Bogusky, and McCann—Suzanne shares her journey through the world of brand strategy, creative transformation, and what it truly takes to power creativity.

They explore the impact of disruption as a strategic tool, the importance of embedding creativity at every level of an organization, and how brands can create culturally resonant work. Suzanne also reflects on the evolving creative landscape, why the best strategies are never built in isolation, and how bold thinking can drive meaningful change.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation on the future of creativity, leadership, and why starting a “selfish company” might just be the best career move.
