Legends. They're officially my new advertising heroes. - Hollie Newton
Lindsay jumped ship pretty quickly at Publicis when the shit hit the fan. What goes around comes around ... - Roger O'Thornhill
Actually, Roger (whoever you are), I didn't. I made 40-odd people redundant, with Mark Cramphorn and Graham Stewart, got the agency back to a 20 per cent margin, won a piece of business and then left, having been let down by worldwide management on, among other things, Asda. - Tim Lindsay
Made 40 people redundant? Well done you. What goes around comes around ... - jezwaspsrule
Don't think he enjoyed making 40 redundant. - Rollie Fingers
Fair points, Tim, but I'd expect you to know how many people you'd made redundant. "40-odd" is a bit imprecise considering you are talking about people's livelihoods. - Roger O'Thornhill
If they were "odd", you can't really blame Tim for wanting to get rid of them, though. - jezwaspsrule
Surely you need "odd" people in advertising? - ronnie blogsville
Perhaps that's why it started to go wrong at Publicis. - jezwaspsrule - Post your views at www.brandrepublic.com/campaign.
