Added David Lubars, ranked the most awarded Chief Creative Officer in the World, “We think of ourselves as a global boutique. In other words, quick, nimble, innovative and collaborative, rather than a big stupid agency. He added, Operating this way, combined with our size and discipline, makes us unique, makes us a company that reaches a high creative and business plane year after year. Which is why I am especially proud that BBDO has topped The Drum Big Won Network rankings for the second year in a row.”
