I've been interviewing chief strategy officers from some of the world's most effective advertising agencies according to the Effie Index. Many of them contributed to our recent report What Strategists Want From Work. I'll share the interviews via the Sweathead podcast in June.

3. Everything and everyone is in service of doing something that’s never been done before, and
4. Obviously, they track and count everything they do.
