Creativity is a team sport. It’s for everyone in our industry – not just creatives, and that’s coming from one. 

saintnicks creative director Marcus Culloty, previously McCann and Jameson in-house creative director, kicks around an analogy about what he’s learned from playing creative for 18 years, and how you can score big with clients when you play as one team.

In this session, Marcus will share top tips on:

  • Working better together as one big creative team
  • Seeing your clients as collaborators
  • Injecting more creativity into your briefs
  • Developing a ‘culture of creativity’
  • Opening your door to creative opportunities

Register here!

This session will revolve around real-life work examples and anecdotes from Marcus’ time in Scotland at The Leith Agency, to running a creative department before he turned 30 in London, to transforming Irish distiller Jameson’s in-house adapts studio into an award-winning creative studio, to his time at McCann working on Admiral TV, Proper Job OOH, and Dunlop to currently heading up the creative department at saintnicks on the likes of LIV Golf, d&b Audiotechnik and Pistonheads.

This event will help attendees better understand everyone’s position on the wider creative team. Everyone has a position on the pitch and plays a pivotal role in the team.

Who’s it for?

Anyone in a client-side or agency, whatever their role or remit, who’s in the business of creativity.

More about our ‘Wake Up Call’ webinar series

These sessions take place every other Friday morning from 8.30-9am, for the BCI community to share their pearls of wisdom with one another. The half hour webinars will involve a 15 minute presentation followed by a 10 minute facilitated Q&A, with introductions from the BCI team.

Our community is full of such amazing talent so we’re giving members the stage to talk about things that excite them so they can inspire their peers. The sessions will be a mix of expert tips and tricks and case studies – the perfect opportunity to learn something new before the week is out.

Our usual online format is an interactive ‘meeting’ but for this series we’re running webinars so that it’s easy to listen in while prepping for the day ahead or while having your breakfast! Cameras and mics will be off but you can ask your questions through the chat box or submit them beforehand.

Please get in touch with Dan if you’re interested in speaking at a future session.
