TheMarketingblog special interview with Catherine Becker
Pattison said: “It is a really good time to pause, and have a think and work out how we do things better together. We only innovate when we get different minds and creativity, intellect, capablity, technology, media thinking and brains all working together. That human side of our industry is really important.”
