Published: July 12, 2018, midnight

b'\\u201cYou just thought about this over night? This is just remarkable!\\u201d\\n\\nGordon Bowen is one of my absolute top idols in the global advertising industry. He is the inventor of the world-famous American Express campaign, "Member since" and has been creatively responsible for the account for many years at Ogilvy and Mather. This campaign was awarded, among other things with the title "Campaign of the Decade".\\nAfter leaving the company, he was the creative mastermind behind the application and later creative director of the Olympic games in his hometown of Salt Lake City. Together with Mitt Romney, the head of the organizing committee, he only had to find a way to tune the country for the Olympic Games shortly after 9/11.\\nAt the age of fifty, in 2002, together with his founding partner John McGarry, he founded the advertising agency McGarryBowen. The agency has developed rapidly since its foundation and has been awarded the "Agency of the Year" award several times. The agency is represented globally today, works for clients like P&G, Disney, Marriott, Intel, Mondelez, Chevron and belongs to the japanese Dentsu group. \\nBut it is not this obvious success that makes Gordon. Gordon is a very special person. He is curious, he is empathic, he is a great storyteller, he loves traveling, he is passionate about art, music, architecture and pop culture. He is involved in numerous social and cultural projects. He gains new energy from all these topics for his work. He is experimenting with new working methods, including the new \\u2018American Express Team\\u2019 at McGarryBowen. He is a great host and I am pleased to call him my friend.\\nHave fun with Episode 69 of the #OntheWayToNewWork Podcast \\nSPOTIFY spotify.onthewaytonewwork.com\\nSOUNDCLOUD soundcloud.com/onthewaytonewwork\\nAnd ITUNES itunes.onthewaytonewwork.com\\nAnd all book tips here books.onthewaytonewwork.com\\nWith Christoph Magnussen and Michael Trautmann\\n\\n\\nwww.onthewaytonewwork.com'
