Which projects have been the most meaningful to you and why?
My favorite projects (and I’m grateful that there have been so many of them!) are those where I’m playing an integral role in helping an iconic, important company reposition itself for the future. Whether it’s developing a new brand for Walmart or eBay or developing a whole new business design for a financial services or health care client, I get a lot of satisfaction from helping companies understand where customers are headed and redefine themselves accordingly.
Being a Lippincott’er means:
Having high standards of excellence and high expectations for impact.
