What others are saying:

“On Strategy offers the unique perspective marketers crave: the story behind the work and the thinking that shaped it.”

– Jennifer Healan, VP, U.S. Marketing and Brand Content, McDonald’s

“On Strategy has done a terrific job bringing a range of voices out into the open. It's a wonderful way to understand that there is no one way to 'do strategy' because every strategist and every problem is different.”

– Gareth Kay, Founder, Chapter, San Francisco, CA

“If you're eager to take a break from strategists talking about themselves, you've come to the right place! What makes On Strategy so special is that it's focused squarely on their work.”

– Britton Taylor, Group Strategy Director, W+K, Portland

“It’s rare to hear the best strategists talk about the best work. It’s even rarer to get more than the classic polished case study. On Strategy gives you both. And for that it’s a damn good listen.”

– Simon Wassef, Chief Strategy Officer, TBWA Chiat Day, Los Angeles, CA
