Best Alone. Better Together. For our clients, it means getting some of the smartest people and best resources in all the disciplines of communications around a table figuring out what’s best for their brand.
For the partner companies of Y&R Group, it is a strategy that has been proven over nearly half a century, when Y&R made its first acquisition outside of advertising.
Peter Law-Gisiko, chief operating officer
We constantly reinforce our ability to collaborate. In 2014, Y&R Group initiated cross-company business development training with the Group’s New Business Development Council. We continued our proprietary Rubicam University client partnership and cross-disciplinary training program.
We restructured the Global Intelligence Group to give broader and deeper support to the entire network.
And, finally, we launched INSPIRE, a sustainability practice across all the Y&R Group companies that helps clients craft communications that create commercial value for the brand.
On these next pages, the Y&R Group companies share their perspectives, their achievements, and their plans for the future.
