MediaCom is a media agency, founded in 1986 in Europe as a subsidiary of Grey Advertising, and soon expanded throughout the world. In 2006, after acquisition of Grey by WPP, MediaCom became a key part of GroupM, WPP’s global media operations arm. Together with GroupM partners, MediaCom is responsible for $104.5 billion in media buying, equalling to a 33% market share (source: Recma). When I joint the agency in Milan my mission was to develop an HR function in Italy and to make sure the best People First practices from Headquarters have been applied effectively. The agency at that time was going through an intense digitalization process and a big change was about to come. Unexpectedly, soon after my arrival, we lost an important international client and it meant a completely new set of priorities for HR and for business. I spent my 11 months at MediaCom mainly helping managers and employees to go through the crisis characterized by uncertainty, high turnover and limited resources. The agency went through a reorganization and re-built its excellence. This let them today continue to help their clients to unlock their growth potential through efficient media buying.
