Creative teams who can use better process design to become more proactive, more strategic and anticipate the changes that are part of every business will be the ones who not only survive, but create the most meaningful work.

DownloadIt’s the dream of every in-house agency—to have a seat at the table. Whether it’s being pulled in earlier by our client partners or having a chance to influence senior leaders in making decisions that affect our future, we all aspire to play a more strategic role within our organizations. In early 2019, the in-house agency at Orvis decided to create an internal board of directors to stay close to company strategy and remain top-of-mind with leadership. Comprised of executives and an external advisor, this newly formed board is working to future-proof the agency at Orvis.

What’s to become of the in-house model in the wake of such fundamental shifts? Hear about the reckoning marketing, agencies and related work forces are facing and the likely impact on the future of in house.

DownloadWhat is the one thing every in-house agency needs to do to achieve operational excellence? It’s a trick question. That’s because every team is unique and at a different point in its maturity, so each one has a different set of levers to pull in order to get there. Don’t fret, however—evolving successful operations doesn’t have to be overwhelming. This session touches on three main pillars Liberty Mutual’s Copper Giants™ concentrated on and how their focus not only helped the team grow from small to full service, but advanced their operational effectiveness as well.
