The first one of the year!

This first agency session of the year we visited our friends at HERC!

About HERC

HERC is a creative agency that is inspired by the origin of Hip Hop and the way it is still influencing the masses.HERC is breaking boundaries by continuously going against the current, and incorporating pop-culture in their advertising campaigns.

Breaking boundaries

So breaking boundaries is at the heart of HERC. Not only in the way they create campaigns, but also in the way they work together as a team. Have you ever felt uncomfortable asking questions to a senior? Afraid to speak up in meetings as a junior? Ask about salary or make a comment about gender (in)equality? During this session, we've showed how they deal with these topics at HERC and.. we even eliminated more agency hierarchy on the spot!

Session

After a introduction about HERC - because who doesn’t like a sneak peek of the agency that creates campaigns like YoungCapital | Whatever Works - HERC discussed one of the cases they worked on. After that we opened up the conversation about breaking boundaries on the workfloor.

Hosted by Junior Strategist & talented podcast queen Jhelisa Tramaine Panfred, we’ve put both Managing Director Margriet de Kroon and Founding Partner & ECD Emilio de Haan on the spot to ask questions you were always afraid to ask. These questions ranged from salary negotiations and biased expectations to cultural differences and biggest failures.
