Virgin Media COO Jeff Dodds and Beano Studios CEO Emma Scott on communications and kids in lockdown.
Wax/On’s Mark Runacus and Paul Jacobs meet for another working from home special. A few days before rumours of a Virgin Media and O2 merger surfaced, Virgin Media's Jeff Dodds explained how our communication habits have changed in lockdown, how his team created a brand-new TV ad sensitive to our COVID-dominated world, talked about his passion for getting differently-abled people into the workforce, and shared the leadership advice he was given by Usain Bolt. Beano Studios’ Emma Scott tells us how she pivoted an 80-year-old comic to a multi-platform content studio and global kids’ insight database, and explains how COVID is highlighting inequalities amongst children with 1 million UK and 8 million US children denied access to outside space at the moment.
