Kerrie Leary, Director of Operations at PMX in Melbourne, is a proud member and former Chairperson of enABLE, Publicis Groupe's employee action group dedicated to people with visible and non-visible disabilities. She shares her personal story of starting the group after her son was diagnosed with multiple disabilities.   Upon hearing the news, she worried about his future and became focused on making the workplace more inclusive so that everyone can thrive. With one in five people in Australia and one in four in New Zealand living with a disability, it's something we need to prioritise so that the future is set up for them to succeed.   Hear Kerrie's story and why enABLE is important to Publicis Groupe.   #ProudToBePublicis #DEI

'We'll Give You Something to Talk About' is the NZ Paralympic team's campaign from Saatchi & Saatchi NZ, a theme born from the experience of many disabled athletes. We're so proud to be a part of this important work, showcasing the incredible stories of so many disabled athletes who face so much adversity when it comes to competing in sports. “We want to showcase the individual journeys of our Paralympians, touching on the battle with their own internal voices, the external cacophony of comments and expectations all athletes experience and have to overcome, and the idea that we should talk about disability. We want to celebrate and shout about our Para athletes’ incredible accomplishments, and we want New Zealanders to talk about them as the amazing elite athletes they are," -Rachel Barr, Marketing Manager, Paralympics New Zealand Find out more about the work: https://lnkd.in/gAFsn5E5 #Paralympics2024

"Privacy is a new engine of growth. As consumer demand for privacy intensifies, businesses aiming for sustainable growth cannot afford to ignore it. Even if legislative hurdles delay privacy reforms, companies that proactively embrace privacy today can gain a significant competitive edge — addressing an unmet consumer need while building trust, fostering loyalty, and driving business growth. It’s a win-win for everyone: government, businesses, and consumers all benefit."   Chief Data Officer Maurice Riley writes for The Australian this week about how the changes to privacy reform legislation allow businesses to lead the way in investing in data protection, prioritise transparency with consumers and ultimately drive business growth.   Read more in The Growth Agenda: https://lnkd.in/gYeN6sq5

After the excitement of the recent Olympic Games, we're so pleased that this week, we can once again cheer on our athletes as they compete in the Paris Paralympic Games. It's an event that brings us together to show our support and imagine what they can do with the full weight of the nation behind them.   The 'Imagine What We Can Do' campaign from Publicis Worldwide Australia beautifully captures the personal stories of our incredible Paralympians and encourages us to remove the barriers that people with disabilities face when participating in sports. #ImagineWhatWeCanDo #ParalympicsAustralia

 "The heart of the Publicis Groupe strategy is about the integration of strategy [and] insight, and then applying that through either the creative practice or the media practice... What we're seeing is when you bring the business analytics from the media business, and you couple that with the strategic development process for brands and communications strategies, which usually happen in a creative agency, that can magnify the level of intellect and strategy development for both sides." - Michael Rebelo CEO of Publicis Groupe ANZ   Last week at Advertising Council Australia's This Way Up festival, Publicis Groupe ANZ CEO Michael Rebelo chatted to Nine's Liana Dubois for the Talking Creativity podcast. They discussed his experience at Cannes this year judging the Creative Effectiveness category, what work stood out above the rest, and how the creative use of data drives advertising engagement and creative effectiveness.   Take a listen: https://lnkd.in/gkEznsnV

Now in its 38th year, Daffodil Day is such an important day to fundraise and give hope to those living with cancer. With the hard-hitting fact that almost 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85, it's something that affects all of us.   We proudly partnered with Cancer Council earlier this year as part of our Working with Cancer pledge, and we wish their support teams, volunteers and staff all the best on one of their busiest days of the year.   If you are able to spare any amount, donate here https://lnkd.in/gE2ryZJ   If you would like to know more about the Working with Cancer pledge and how you can get involved, visit here: https://lnkd.in/gPBTiQ_k Working with Cancer Initiative #DaffodilDay #WorkingWithCancer
