I start typing with an overwhelming feeling of defeat. Not because the trip at the end of August to which I am going to refer went badly, but because I think it is almost impossible to translate into text what I experienced. No adjective is sufficient to describe what it really means to experience “Burning […]
Often the enemy is in ourselves. And indeed, agencies that have decided to pull out or quit are sending a message: deterioration, lack of leadership, lack of direction, fear of losing, that they have nothing to compete with, lack of creative, internal [...]

With the water cycle, presented in this beautiful animation, I connected with my years in advertising and that of almost all of us advertisers. It’s a long journey and like all, with obstacles and challenges at every step. One day we win [...]
