Description

In this episode I’m speaking with the brilliant Damon Stapleton. He is the Chief Creative Officer and Co-Founder of The Monkeys Aotearoa, New Zealand. I have been a huge fan of Damon and his work since I discovered his blog on Creativity called Damon’s Brain. 


Damon is a highly awarded and successful Advertising Creative. He’s recognised as one of the top 10 Executive Creative Directors globally and he’s won over 500 international awards including Cannes Lions, D&AD Pencils and Clios.


Damon has worked on some truely incredible and famous campaigns like the ‘The Zimbabwean Newspaper’ campaign where the Zimbabwean trillion dollar note became the advertising medium and the Samsung iTest - where they were able get iPhone users to turn their phones into a Samsung! Sounds crazy right? We’ll unpack those ideas in the episode. 


Damon is not only a brilliant creative but an inspiring leader of creativity. We discuss what needs to be present for creativity to thrive in an organisation. 


This conversation with Damon is full of gems. I loved this chat and I hope you do too.
