Future Behaviours
that should be adopted by every agency to positively change advertising as a whole: Work with brands, but on behalf of people:
Brands are clients, but agencies must prioritise people’s interests, educating brands on consumer importance and acting on behalf of the people. Seek out less heard voices, act upon what they tell you:
Diverse opinions and perspectives improve work and the world. Agencies must actively listen to and act on a broad range of voices. Be fair to everyone, then you’ll have nothing to hide:
Agencies should ensure objective and transparent reward structures to promote equality. Treat your clients like friends and employees like best friends:
Clients provide opportunities, but employees turn them into work. Agencies must prioritise employees' wellbeing. Solve problems with a curious mind:
Creativity involves original ideas. Agencies should explore unproven solutions and take risks for better outcomes, even if things aren’t broken. Empower employees with a framework for freedom:
Provide supportive structures without restrictions, allowing employees to make decisions and control their career progression within clear business parameters. Equal Opportunities We encourage employees to be open and confident and appreciate that every member of the team makes a vital difference. Billion Dollar Boy embraces equality, diversity and inclusion and will seek to promote these benefits in all of our business activities.
