Agency competency test

I’ve been a fan of Bart Cleveland’s contributions to the Ad Age Small Agency Diary for several years now, and his most recent article is no exception:

Give Your Agency This Simple Competency Test

Bart serves up four questions to help you evaluate where you are. As he mentions toward the end of the article, “Whether you own an agency or just work for one, you should be asking yourself these questions and planning your course accordingly.”

It’s a short article, but lots of good ideas to chew on.

Finding Inspiration in Letters

Russ Stoddard, Founder and President of Oliver Russell, is at it again.

Last year, it was all about the letter V. This time around, Russ shares his thoughts as they relate to the letter P.

I came across a guest article yesterday morning, written by Russ, for Talent Zoo, wherein he shares his thoughts on people, power and purpose (just to name a few), in the agency world, and marketplace in general.

The article is currently at the top of the Featured Articles section on Talent Zoo’s website, and a link to the full article can be found here.

Well done Russ. Well done.

Brick Group
