Innovative Practices and Data Storytelling in Marketing

On our debut episode, Olivia and Brian interview Paul Woolmington, CEO of Canvas Worldwide to talk about his experiences as a leader in the agency industry. We discuss a significant amount of history given his foundational role establishing media agencies as stand-alone businesses (at Y&R and The Media Kitchen) and co-founding Naked, which pioneered communications planning. We also review agency industry news from the first week of December, including IPG's sale of Huge and layoffs at Edelman, with a conversation focusing on the bigger picture impacting both of those businesses.
