5N30 Ep 8: From Languishing to Flourishing with Kerry Hill and Mandi Holdorf

This week’s 5N30 panel goes a little over the usual 30-minute limit, but all should be forgiven for the impactful and inspiring discussions that arise from the two panelists that join Great Guns USA and LBB to chat anything but advertising. 

As the series reaches its eighth installment, Great Guns USA’s MD Oliver Fuselier and LBB’s North American editor Addison Capper continue to celebrate the creative spirit of the industry and the personalities that keep it moving forward. This week, they are joined by Kerry Hill, EVP, director of production at FCB North America, and Mandi Holdorf, director of integrated production at 215 McCann.

This week, the panel discusses the impact of technology on our daily lives, the things they’re really bad at but enjoy, the influence of empathy and vulnerability on their roles as leaders, and how their past mentors have impacted their outlook and approach to their work. 

When speaking about the most inspiring and annoying words of the past year, Mandi and Kerry connect over one specific New York Times article - which perfectly encapsulates the state of the nation this past year. Listen below to discover how the panelists responded to the concept of ‘languishing’, and how they continue to flourish in the face of it all.
