The event was this week’s American Association of Advertising Agencies’ ‘Transformation 2011: Making It Happen’ advertising conference. And this is the first time these holding company leaders have appeared on a panel together. Here we see Michael Roth, CEO, Interpublic; Sir Martin Sorrell, CEO, WPP; and John Wren, CEO, Omnicom Group Inc., all together being interviewed by Brian Perkins, corporate vice-president, Johnson & Johnson.
Conference topics included: agency collaboration, growth opportunities, privacy and self-regulation, talent retention and diversity.
