What a joy to be working with this bunch of agency legends at the Oystercatchers X-Series event this evening. We had a blast through the art and science of client:agency relationships, exploring how to build trust, create love and develop a sixth sense for when trouble is brewing. For those who came along, thanks. As you could tell, I love to get everyone involved. Hopefully you all went home with ideas for what you can change today to make tomorrow better.

The Festival of Marketing was a vibe! Huge thanks to our fantastic speakers, our very own Russell Parsons, and the entire Xeim team for making it such a memorable event. Shout-out to the ultimate dragon, Deborah Meaden, for sharing her inspiring perspective on driving sustainable business growth, with empathy at the heart of it all. And of course, a big nod to the Oystercatchers crew who, in my opinion, really topped it all off... Rebecca McKinlay led a stellar session with McDonald's and Leo Burnett UK, showcasing an incredible 17-year partnership and impressive growth story. Meanwhile, Andy Bargery's masterclass with the esteemed Sarah Jenkins on supercharging agency partnerships had everyone reflecting on the future of meaningful collaboration. Grateful for the connections made and the invaluable insights shared. And a little love to my photobomber, Ludo Graham, just because.
