Hey, here's what's making 83 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: news in science, technology, engineering, and math. Smartphones are so 84 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: last year. Samsung isn't the only smartphone maker that's becoming 85 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: painfully aware. Sales are flatlining, and it's planned to remain 86 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: competitive is to morph into more of a software driven company, 87 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: so says Samsung executive VP re And Jong, adding in 88 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: an interview that the South Korean consumer electronics maker is 89 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: actively looking to acquire developers of artificial intelligence. His vision, 90 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: artificial intelligence will make the things we do on smartphones 91 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: much more convenient, and your well trained phone will build 92 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: customer loyalty. That's because of the amount of time it 93 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: takes to train the software to understand your preferences. Google 94 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: will create business tools and products based on its own 95 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: artificial intelligence technology, seeking to entice more companies to rent 96 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: its cloud computing services. It plans to offer services such 97 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,679 Speaker 1: as audio transcription and image identification built around its machine 98 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: learning software. Google has used this technology for its own 99 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: products and is now making the capabilities available for other 100 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: companies to rent. At Access over the Internet had activist 101 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: investors pushing technology companies to close the gender pay gap. 102 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: Just heard from Amazon dot Com. The online retailer says 103 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: it hired an independent labor economist to conduct a study 104 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: that found for every dollar men earned women working the 105 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: same jobs Amazon in the US last year, or ninety 106 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: nine point nine cents. And that's this morning's Bloomberg and 107 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: j I t stand report. John, Thank you very much, 108 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: Bom boom.

Tom Keene 110 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: here in the studio. Francine la Quix, I'm happy to say, 111 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: joining us from London this morning. Hi Franni, Hi John, 112 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: how are you doing. I'm delighted to join the conversation 113 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: this morning on Bloomberg Radio, and no one better to 114 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: join us than the chairman of such Insagi, Kevin Roberts, 115 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit more about advertising, the world 116 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: we live in, marketing, but also disrupting your own business. Kevin, 117 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: great to have you on the program today. You talk 118 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: a lot about disruption, You talk a lot about value 119 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: creation and brands. We were talking about Facebook, Microsoft, Google, 120 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: Who is the one company that may be disrupted that 121 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: we're not expecting to be disrupted right now? We're all 122 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: vulnerable to disruption. You know, descriptions driven by consumers, It's 123 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: driven by creativity, driven by ideas, driven by constant, constant 124 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: desire to make things easier and fastest. So if you're 125 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: not busy disrupting yourself, you are going to be disrupted. 126 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: It's like Vince Lombardi said way back. He said, if 127 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: you're not if you play for the Green Bay Packers 128 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: and you're not fired with enthusiasm, you will be fired 129 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: with enthusiasm. So you better get on with your disruption. 130 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: Right But okay, so the big company, how do I 131 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: disrupt myself? And this is very counterintuitive? So I know 132 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: where customer lead, I know it's a digital era. I 133 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: know we spend more time talking to our our mobile 134 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: phones than we do to our partners. But but it's 135 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: the concept of brand really changing. The first question is 136 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: how do you descrupt yourselves? That you asked me, and 137 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: I think that's the killer question because frankly, a business 138 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: model disruption, I'm not going to say it's easy, but 139 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: a business model disruption just needs a fabulous idea with 140 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: some great execution. Think about Airbnb, think about Amazon, think 141 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: about Uber whatever, whatever, whatever. But if you transform yourself, 142 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: you have to disrupt your culture. And if you're fifty 143 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: years old, sixty years old, twenty years old, and you've 144 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: been successful, there is nothing more difficult than disrupting yourself 145 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: culturally because people are you know, in build resistant and 146 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: feel insecure, nervous about change, let alone about transformation disruption. 147 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: So it's that's the first challenge. How can you disrupt 148 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: your culture right? And kind of the problems that you 149 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: have to to be sure you're disrupting something better? Right, 150 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: You could be disrupting something that does not need disrupting. 151 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: So what data are you looking at to make sure 152 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: that you're not missing it up by disrupting something that works? Yeah, 153 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: not a tremendous amount of data. I think you know 154 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: you can follow. I think culture, beat strategy, and beat 155 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: data every day of the week. And if you if 156 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: you are truly creativity lead and innovation lead, and somehow 157 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: you can bring creativity, innovation and technology to be your servant, 158 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: then disruption becomes less frightening and more a way of life. 159 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: You have to generate a culture where the product isn't 160 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: whatever you're making, but the product is constant innovation, constant improvement. Kevin, you're, 161 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: of course a grow when it comes to advertising. We 162 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: have to pivot to politics if you look at political 163 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: candidates on all fronts. So let's look at the US, 164 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: but also let's look at here the UK and leaders 165 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: that are struggling, such as the South African president. Whose 166 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 1: campaign would you like to do right now? Well? I 167 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: think it it's a great, great question, isn't it, Because 168 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: leadership seems to be at a premium right now in 169 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: the world of politics. If you look around what's happening 170 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: in Europe, if you look around what's happening in the US. 171 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: There is a growing unrest amongst the middle classes who 172 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: are saying, listen, whether you're right or left, you political people. 173 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: You're ignoring me, you're not caring for me, you're not 174 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: listening to me, you're not responsive to me. And I'm angry, 175 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure how I can manifest my anger 176 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: except I'm probably not going to vote for you establishment leaders. 177 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: So I may be attracted to the extreme right, I 178 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: may be extracted to the extreme left, I may be 179 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: attracted to the outsider. But at the moment, I think 180 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: we are in a a vacuum where the next leader 181 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: that can come for the middle classes is the one 182 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: we would support. All right, Kevin, thanks so much, Kevin Roberts. 183 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: There of Sachie and Satchie the chairman, it's not in 184 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: the vacuum.

Francine and Tom Karen, thank 218 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: you so much. We continue to know the conversation with 219 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: the such and Sacchi chairman. He is Kevin Roberts. Kevin, 220 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: we were talking a little bit before about disrupting your brand, 221 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: and we briefly briefly touched on politics. Talk to me 222 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: about really the desperate choices facing US Republicans. If you 223 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: were doing some kind of advertising campaign for them, who 224 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: would you have to convince? Is it millennials? Do you 225 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: have to be on social going forward? UM? Trump has 226 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: to connect, modify with the younger people, but also with 227 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: he's got to um become more presidential and more serious 228 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: and build some gravity pass into all the extremism thing. 229 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: I think you might see him start tracking back. I 230 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: hope a little bit towards the middle, and I think 231 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: you might see Mrs Clinton moving a little bit further 232 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: towards the middle classes, towards some ideas, towards some innovation. 233 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: So if it were to get down to the handtan 234 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: combat they were expecting, I think you're gonna see some 235 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: some movement towards the middle from both. That's what we 236 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 1: would recommend anyway. Kevin, you're advisor supreme right, your your 237 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 1: head coach also publicly sees how difficult when you look 238 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: at politics is it to read polls? We saw it 239 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: here in the UK with the UK elections. The polls 240 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: made no sense. I mean they didn't you know, on 241 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 1: D Day the votes were completely different to what we 242 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: had in the polls. Is it the same situation in 243 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: the US. And again, how it is difficult Is it 244 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: to manage your campaign if you don't believe the polls? Yeah, 245 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: I think you should start with the answer and work 246 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: back and the answers never in the polls. The answer 247 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: is in your purpose, in your beliefs, what you stand for, 248 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: and how you can communicate that emotionally with the people 249 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: of your nation. So, you know, looking at polls is 250 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: sort of interesting, but it's not the point. Right. Information 251 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: is interesting, but it's really how can you emotionally connect? 252 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: How can you build a relationship now with all this 253 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: amazing opportunity of all the social media that's available out there. 254 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: Looking at polls, he's sort of looking at the rear 255 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: view mirror. You've got to get into the windshield and 256 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: stand for something and communicate that emotionally. You know. I 257 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: look at the system here in the change politics and 258 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: a I think, Kevin, we all have a framework in 259 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: the history that's individual. But what we can say for 260 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: certain is the two thousand sixteen is not even two 261 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: thousand eight or two thousand two or you know, back 262 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: however far you want to take it. With that said, 263 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: what's the new calculus to not make people vote for you, 264 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: but to get them to change their vote. I think 265 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: you've got to promise them something besides besides free beer. 266 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: Free beer would work okay for many people, but I 267 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: think you have to promise you know, you have to 268 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: be purpose driven, particularly with this new world where we're 269 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: all drowning and information so we've all got access to 270 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: that stuff. We've got to paint a real clear picture 271 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: of why the future looks like for me. If I'm 272 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: a middle class, average American, I'm not happy. So whichever 273 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: one of you two guys is going to give me 274 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: some joy and some reason to believe I'm going to 275 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: vote for I look, fran scene at the difference between 276 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: the UK election and maybe Brexit has some of the 277 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: features of a selection which is basically going on forever. Kevin, 278 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: what's your advice to the candidates in that strange gap 279 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: from the primaries to the convention strange moment it is. Yeah, 280 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: I think it's a wonderful opportunity, frankly, to start modifying, coordinating. 281 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: What the millennials want today is not conflict. They're looking 282 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: for collaboration. They're looking for connectivity. They're not looking for 283 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: all these attack dogs and stuff that we've seen in 284 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: the past. They're looking for someone to unite and to 285 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: move forward together. And I would use that time to 286 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: start developing those kind of relationships, those kind of accords, 287 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: instead of simply attacking each other, which I think is 288 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: really counterproductive for all parties. Okay, Kevin, you mentioned millennials, Tom, 289 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: We spend a fair amount of our time trying to 290 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: figure out what this group wants to buy, how they vote, 291 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: how they make life choices, Kevin, who gets it right 292 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 1: in reaching millennials, And it can be companies, it can 293 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: be political groups. How do you get a millennial to 294 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: follow you, to embrace what your message is? Well, you 295 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: don't want to get them to follow you. These guys 296 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,479 Speaker 1: are not followers. You want them to join you, right, 297 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: You want them to evangelize for you, and you want 298 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: them to become part of what you stand for. And 299 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: I think if you look at the companies that do 300 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: that well, they would be Apple in a normal bunch 301 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: of suspects, Amazon would do it very well. Uber Or 302 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: are living on that right now. Airbnb of revolutionalized and 303 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: disrupted the entire hotel industry. They don't need rooms, they 304 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: just need people. Because they haven't convinced or told millennials. 305 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: They've said, come join us, share your experiences, talk to 306 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: each other. That's how Apple works as well, Tom, were 307 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 1: millennials right in our heads were millennials. But I see it. 308 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: I see the debate within the digital overload in editorial overload, Kevin, 309 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: that we all have today. We're exhausted by the amount 310 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: of material. How does Secretary Clinton or Mr Trump deal? 311 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: I mean Mr Trump clearly has a new and original 312 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: method to deal with the overload we all face. Yeah, 313 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: I mean I don't feel overloaded and overwhelmed. And I 314 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: know all the you know, the average age of people 315 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: at Sache and Sachi's twenty seven, and they've never had 316 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: it so good. They don't feel overloaded at all. They're 317 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: loving it, relishing it. They make their mind up in 318 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: less than three seconds on whether they in or out 319 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: on the information, so they're boom, They're moving on. They're 320 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: looking for things that they're not looking for information and 321 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 1: use as much as they're looking for a point of view, 322 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: some entertainment, some optimism in the whole messaging. They're looking 323 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: for it visually rather than just spoken the way that 324 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: we saw it, and they're looking for it fast. They 325 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 1: have no sense of information fatigue, non They're on top 326 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: of this. They know how to manipulate this and absorb it, 327 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: as do people like Facebook, Instagram and so on, Snapchat, Twitter. 328 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: These guys get it too. If you try Apple Music 329 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: versus Spotify, Apple Music instinctively gets um what these consumers 330 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: how they want to absorb their music.
