Cuando pensamos en la industria de Agencias de publicidad, con frecuenta pensamos en una pequeña pero muy aguerrida comunidad de profesionales donde la competencia incluso entre amigos, es simplemente feroz. Pero si algo he aprendido en todos estos años siendo parte de esta, es que no importa cuan dura sea la competencia y cuan críticos seamos del trabajo que se hace entre agencias y marcas, al final, en la vasta mayoría de los casos, quienes formamos parte de esta, hemos creado una comunidad donde la colaboración resulta muy importante. Y ejemplo de esta generosidad entre colegas y competidores, con frecuencia está en grandes líderes como mi invitado el día de hoy.
