Overview

Company Summary

We’re Campbell Ewald (CE among friends), a full-service creative agency with a Radically Human approach to solving brand problems. Every day, we collaborate to blend innovation and instinct; turning mountains of data into people-first insights, AI inspiration into expertly crafted creative, and brands into places to belong. Founded in 1911, we’re part of the global Interpublic Group (IPG) agency network. We proudly hail from downtown Detroit, but also have offices in Los Angeles, New York City and a remote workforce in Denver, Atlanta and Richmond, Miami, and Montana allowing us to serve clients coast-to-coast. We’re known for taking radical approaches to get to human truths. Like buying a literal GM dealership to better understand the customer experience; wearing our client’s hearing aids for a week to put ourselves in their customers’ shoes; harnessing human insights to transform a 110-year-old brand into a modern day go-to; and hacking old media to bring crypto currency to IRL communities. In short, we solve brand problems by helping brands solve people problems. It’s a radical approach, and it can make a radical difference for your bottom line.

It is a mantra Colin and his teams live every day for every client.

Jamil Buie
Group Director, Growth & Innovation
Jamil brings over 20 years of experience, joining the industry as an “account guy” while cross-training as a writer, strategist and cultural curator. He’s participated in the stewardship of brands like DeBeers, Ford, McDonald’s, Nationwide Insurance, UPMC and Chrysler Jeep Dodge. He’s also worked across a range of speciality markets and platforms, including multicultural, digital advertising, event and entertainment marketing, TV and film product placement, and business development. He’s worked on several B2B accounts in heavily regulated industries, so balancing the need to build a solid brand foundation within regulatory guidelines is not foreign to Jamil.

Barb Rozman-Stokes
Cheif Talent Officer
Officially, Barb is leading the talent management team and overseeing employee communications. Unofficially, she calls herself a steward of culture and an anti-racist advocate-in-training. She makes it her mission to build a constantly growing culture of belonging and equity. In the past six years, she has helped the agency evolve its DE&I goals and established a real commitment for change. Under Barb’s stewardship, the agency has been recognized and awarded for their DEIB programming. Representation at all levels for people of color and women has increased year-over-year at CE with over 25% of the agency now comprised of people of color. In fact, in 2021, Campbell Ewald was named one of Advertising Age's top 15 Best Places to Work. She is also proud of her work with the American Association of Advertising Agencies (the 4A’s) as the chairperson of the Chief Talent Officers Council and her leadership of the Talent Equity Alliance (TEA). The Talent Equity Alliance is a collective of agency leaders working to create new talent policies and practices that will increase equity & belonging for all people in our industry. As a leader, Barb uses her power for good and pushes for what’s right — not what’s expected or easy. She believes the secret to success is to lead with empathy, learn from your mistakes and help others thrive.
