Challenge is opportunity

How do you differentiate yourself? Bruce K. Rosenblum Executive Vice President, Media Research and Insights Warner Bros. I came to know Barbara Leflein and her team through word of mouth. When we are looking to do research on a program and we want to incorporate a new innovative cutting edge type of methodology it’s not uncommon for us to call some of our colleagues in the industry at the cable networks, broadcast networks and local stations just to see what they are doing and if they have any thoughts on what’s new. Consistently the ideation session or the creative brainstorm session that Barbara and her team have done came up over and over. It can be applied anywhere. I think any company that has a business challenge or wants to get a deeper insight into what they are all about can use this.
