ANGELA MORRIS Head of Planning, Melbourne

WHAT DOES SHE BELIEVE?
Over-rationalising and under imagining are the enemy of effectiveness. Emotion is the highest form of interaction.

WHO HAS SHE WORKED WITH?
A wide range of clients across FMCG, Automotive, Telecoms and other sectors including: Masterfoods, Cadbury, Nestle, Kelloggs, Kraft, Shell, Mazda, Ford, Diageo, Kimberly-Clark, DTI, Coty, Rimmel, and ntl.

WHERE HAS SHE WORKED?
Before joining JWT Melbourne, I was a Board Planning Director of JWT London for seven years, including one year working solely on digital projects for digital@JWT. Prior to this I spent 5 years as Head of Strategy at two London based brand & innovation consultancies - Innovate Consultancy and Beresfords Appetite. My career in advertising started as a graduate trainee at Omnicom agency BMP Countrywide where I quickly moved through the ranks and into planning.

WHO INSPIRES HER?
Einstein, the champion of thinking beyond the expected or known and who believed 'if an idea is not at first absurd there is no hope for it'.

Jane Thompkinson (the British mother who became an extreme athlete after diagnosis with terminal cancer) who so doggedly demonstrated that you can do anything you set your mind to.
