AKQA genopslog dette
Today, after 30 years as founder and CEO of AKQA, I announced to colleagues my decision to resign. Though my time at AKQA has ended, the work goes on, the ambition still burns, the desire to do better never leaves us, and the dream shall never die. Serving AKQA’s team, clients, and values for the past 30 years has been the greatest honour of my life. Founding AKQA at a young age was the start of an incredible journey, and if destiny allows, I look forward to another 30 years of meaningful work and making a difference. Our path has always been guided by a bright light of goodness, illuminating the way ahead. Our brilliant teams now carry the torch forward, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. In its infancy, AKQA took its first steps, stumbled, and rose again. The triumphs were exhilarating, the defeats humbling, and both were integral to our journey. As I step aside, I have immense gratitude for all the lives that enhanced mine and the lessons we’ve taught each other along the way. I’m also eternally proud of the fact that our work has influenced countless people, improved many organisations, and contributed positively to the world. AKQA is internationally respected for its pioneering outlook, which proves that courage, curiosity, and perseverance can overcome the toughest odds. One of the reasons I believe in serendipity is that the story of AKQA is one where the odds were always stacked against us, but we made it from the basement to the boardrooms of the world’s most inspirational brands. The dotcom crash, the global financial crisis, the pandemic, and the recent downturn have all tested our fortitude. But instead of retreating, we turned obstacles into opportunities. The challenging moments didn’t break us — they made us stronger, more determined, and more united. It was in times of greatest uncertainty that our team found its greatest strength. My hope for AKQA is that our team’s drive and determination will fuel the spirit of everything we have worked for. Though I will not be at the company day-to-day, my love for AKQA will remain constant. Heartache, caused by the separation from something you love and helped to bring into the world, can rob us of the ability to marvel at the wonders around us and steal the joy of seeing the beauty in this life. But I am not burdened by grief. This moment feels more like a rebirth, a door opening to something new. Over my three decades with AKQA, I’ve only become more certain that some simple, timeless truths are even more important. It feels more appropriate than ever to say that the most powerful force in the universe isn’t technology or imagination. It’s love.
