Two of our most popular guests return for a conversation on what’s gone wrong in modern marketing and how to fix it. Rory Sutherland and Tom Goodwin tackle everything from digital overload and bad choice architecture to the disappearance of taglines, long-term thinking, and genuine creativity.
Expect behavioural science, contrarian thinking, and plenty of ideas that will make you rethink how marketing really works.
