Campaign Chemistry Campaign Chemistry: VMLY&R global CEO Jon Cook
Cook chats about Cannes, how the agency is navigating pending economic headwinds and dives into VMLY&R’s strategy for retaining diverse talent.
Fresh off of Cannes with a haul of Grand Prix wins, VMLY&R is making waves in the healthcare space. Campaigns including “I will always be me,” which helps people with motor neuron disease preserve their voices before they lose the ability to speak, and for “The Killer Pack,” a nontoxic mosquito repellent from Mumbai, demonstrate how innovation is transforming the sector and creating room for agencies like VMLY&R to grow.
CEO Jon Cook sees health as a green shoot in a rocky economy, along with commerce and digital experiences — areas that the agency has leaned into and have enabled it to grow throughout the pandemic.
In this episode, Cook also chats about how clients are reacting to a rough economic outlook, how the agency is focusing on retention and DE&I in a tough talent market and shares insight into the OpenX operating model for Coca-Cola, a major new account for parent WPP.
