Dana Maiman (President, IPG Health) vs. Matt McNally (CEO, OHG). This should be good. Bring your bag of popcorn.

Definitely have my money on Dana too.

McNally feels like Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget, he exists but I’ve never seen him. Versus Dana who is so hands on, hoping for Dana. Can’t speak to normy advertising but when it comes to health and pharma IPG > Omnicom in terms of leadership

Dana won. Before the fight started.

So, now we can argue about which OHG agencies will be folded into FCB Health, and which will be folded into Area 23.

DAS is, I believe, Omnicom’s largest division. It’s where they put all their agencies that don’t fit into their other networks (although, now that BBDO, TBWA, and DDB are all under the same reporting structure, that new division might be larger). DAS has never really had any brand identity because it’s such a hodgepodge of companies.

Dana wins.

A friend told me the global head of HR at Omnicom Health left suddenly a few months ago and wasn’t replaced. I’m betting on IPG Health taking the health function over with decisions happening like that.

Deep cut. Well done, Joshua.

There's no doubt that Dana is by far the better executive. But my money's on Matt - it helps to be on the winning team even if you aren't the star player.

Not the first time I've been wrong. This feels like a good development though, assuming it's Dana who is going to be stepping in.

These fights are always over before they even begin. Dana had a great career, but her side of the table has been made redundant and OHG is taking over. That's just what it is.

This aged well….
