Grey adds a question to every creative brief: How can this work reflect diversity?
Posted in: Uncategorized
From here on out, all Grey staffers who work on creative for a client must answer this question: How can we make the idea reflect and respect the world’s diversity?
The question is part of the WPP’s new program called “The Progress Brief,” which focuses on making sure all client work at the agency meets standards of respect for all people. Grey partnered with The 3% Movement to help figure out the language for its creative brief.
“I worked with the team at Grey, but they took the lead on the language and made sure it was brief and open-ended,” says Kat Gordon, founder of The 3% Movement, which advocates for diversity in the marketing industry. “If it was just a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ question, then people would rush over it, but Grey settled on the ‘how’ question because then people have to defend it and put thought around it.”
