Campaign Chemistry Campaign Chemistry: BBDO Worldwide’s Nancy Reyes and Chris Beresford-Hill
In an era where consumer attention is more fractured than ever, the traditional "ad" is no longer the cure-all for a brand's woes.
This week, BBDO Worldwide's Nancy Reyes, global president and CEO, and Chris Beresford-Hill, global chief creative officer, join Campaign Chemistry to pull back the curtain on the agency's next chapter.
Following a whirlwind of acquisitions and industry shifts, the leadership duo discuss the much-needed evolution from "creative department" to "business partners." They dive deep into the necessity of upskilling talent for the AI age, the reality of dwindling brand loyalty and why the most successful creatives of the future will be the ones who understand the ins and outs of the client’s business.
