The Future of In-House Creative Leadership Podcast New episode out now Emma Sexton meets Matt Richmond, Global Creative Director at Avon, to discuss the future of in-house creative leadership. Among various insightful topics, Matt shares how he is embracing AI in his team and role. Initially sceptical, he now recognises the immense value AI brings in enhancing consumer engagement and crafting authentic experiences. By leveraging AI for insights and contextual content, Matt's team can focus more on creativity and less on repetitive tasks. He explains how AI aids in visualising concepts, understanding brand tones, and quickly creating viable products. Embracing AI has not only improved efficiency but also expanded the creative canvas, enabling his team to explore new creative directions and deliver impactful marketing strategies.

The Future of In-House Creative Leadership Podcast New episode out now Emma Sexton meets Gillian Davis, Founder at OverTime Leader. Gillian specialises in leadership transformation in the modern workplace and has worked with design leadership teams at companies like Spotify, Typeform, and WeTransfer.
