Terry O’Reilly says ’embrace the obstacle!’

Award winning advertising and marketing expert, Terry O’Reilly, author of “The Age of Persuasion: How Marketing Ate Our Culture,” and host of “Under the Influence” on national CBC radio joined Career Buzz host Mark Franklin (pictured together at left) for a feature conversation. In this exciting hour of radio, these career questions are discussed:

What can you do better to communicate your own story and harness “The Power Of Storytelling”?
What can the career field learn to shape up its image and market itself better?
Why do clients and customers have to feel, not just understand?

And as always on Career Buzz, you get the story behind the story and hear the key turning points in Terry’s own career.

Terry O’Reilly co-founded Pirate Radio & Television, a creative audio production company, in 1990. Pirate has a staff of 50, with 8 recording studios in Toronto and New York City. Terry has won a few hundred national and international awards for writing and directing. He hosts sold-out creative radio seminars, and was named Canadian judge for the inaugural year of Radio at the Cannes Advertising Festival in France.
