Who is running it?
Jon Leach
Your tutor is Jon Leach who despite starting as a planner in 1984 still works as a jobbing planner to this day. He was initially trained at BMP (the joint home of classic planning, alongside JWT), was re-trained by the radicals at HHCL in the 90’s, survived both the dot-com crash of the early 2000s and the rise of Web 2.0 in the late 2000’s. Since then he has continued to work as a planner with all sorts of digital, public relations, design and sports marketing agencies.
