Nicely written but most of these trends (especially the openly flawed briefs, shrinking timelines) have been happening for years

Yep, makes some fairly ok points but the overly-sensationalist ‘everything will change forever’ angle is a little trite.

Don’t think there is a clear through line matching new strategist behaviors to COVID. I also wholeheartedly disagree that faster, less perfect, and more data are trends happening “because” of covid. Consulting is eating ad agencies lunch and conventional strategist skills are frankly outdated. Let’s stop worshipping outside the gate of “inspiring creatives” and evangelize others to solve real business problems CREATIVELY.

Apparently CSO’s will still write unsourced think pieces after Covid.

My main takeaway is if you’re a Sr. Strategist or Strategy Director at Publicis, your boss is thinking about cutting you.

I don't like my job, the responsibilities and tasks aren't right for me or my lifestyle.

Key positives for my current employer are pay and security. But my new role within the company isn't working for me, and ultimately I don't think it is for the company either.

A much much smaller (20 people) company offered me a role.

With the global economic situation as is, is it worth the risk to change to a job I know i'd like more with less pay, and potentially less job security?

T.I.A.
