Dr Mumbo

Meet the agency boss who talked to the CEO of Dick Smith about taking risks

Dr Mumbo presumes that the column from Atomic 212 boss Jason Dooris for The Daily Telegraph’s Work Life Daily page today was filed well before Christmas.

Otherwise, he suspects that Mr Dooris might not be quite so proud of having persuaded client Dick Smith’s boss Nick Abboud to take risks.

As readers will no doubt be aware, Mr Abboud ignominiously resigned last week after leading the company into receivership and making a personal paper loss of $34m.

And, Dr Mumbo hopes that despite Dooris’ fourth piece of advice, Dick Smith’s agency account was up to date, as the chances of getting paid as a creditor seem less than financially rewarding.
