The fifth edition of New York Festivals Advertising Awards new podcast series, Rough Cuts with Thiago Cruz, chief creative officer of Grey New York, is a voyage into the creative brilliance of Rob Reilly, WPP global CCO.
Expect to find valuable understanding in his award-winning work, why bold ideas will always win, what makes him a champion of AI, and why creative leadership requires risk and conviction.
Before he was appointed global chief creative officer of WPP four years ago, Reilly had spent seven years as global creative chairman at McCann Worldgroup and ten as partner and worldwide chief creative officer at Crispin Porter + Bogusky.
In previous editions of the bi-weekly podcasts, Thiago Cruz talks with Vivian Odior, head of marketing at WhatsApp; Desiree Derose, brand building director at Angel Soft; Tristan Pineiro, SVP of brand marketing and communications at Grindr; and Lydia Winters, former Chief Storyteller of Minecraft.
