A key skill for any profession is listening, but in marketing, it’s necessary to cut through the noise and find compelling stories. Sometimes, we get in our own way, feeling a need to fill an empty space with our thoughts when we should make room for others instead.
Thomas Kemeny, Author of Junior: Writing Your Way Ahead in Advertising, joins us to discuss listening and its impact on creative work, client relationships, work-life balance, and creative inspiration.
As Thomas suggested, there is power in our silence. Rather than break it, we can use it to listen and identify the moments that matter.
Join us as we discuss:

- Collaboration and problem-solving through listening (15:50)
- Listening to your gut and confronting your inner critic (27:04)
