Marketing, Creativity




Matt Story | 3/27/2022


Dr. Marcus Collins, Head of Strategy at Wieden+Kennedy New York & Clinical Associate Marketing Professor at the Ross School of Business, University of Michigan, was born and raised in Detroit. Before sharing anything else, he is proud to share that everything he is today is a product of being from the D. Even though he didn't reach his early dream of becoming the fifth member of Boyz II Men, many brands, marketers and students have benefited from the stellar career journey he has blazed. His story is a must listen from being described as a unicorn by Matthew Knowles (yeah Beyonce's dad!) to receiving the American Advertisement Federation Hall of Achievement. You will learn:

  • How he has made it his personal mission to help people be dope

  • How he combines a radical amount of faith with a radical amount of discipline to elevate himself

  • How he built a portfolio career that is as diverse as his interests
