Advertising M+A darling Miles Nadal, founder and CEO of MDC Partners, provides a bird’s eye view from the ivory tower on how to build a winning agency model for today and a sustainable model for the future. In short, it all starts with the agency vibe + culture and we can expect more of the Silicon Valley “run and gun” startup ethic infiltrating the buttoned-up (and buttoned-down) ranks of Madison Avenue. Look at it as the evolution from Mad Men to Rad Men. Like cool man.
