Initiative adds Jason Maggs to senior strategy and corporate responsibility role
Initiative Australia has named international strategist and former Cannes Young Lions winner Jason Maggs as senior director of strategy.
Maggs joins from Initiative New York, where he was vice president and director of strategy and social good. He’ll carry lessons from that role across the Pacific, charged with furthering the Sydney team’s work in the corporate social responsibility space.

Congrats Initiative and Jason. Looking forward to what comes out of this awesome partnership.
This is the first I’ve heard of a “brilliantly talented strategic mind” tramping the muddy field of corporate whitewashing.
Kudos for shunning the high road taken by the likes of Gary Kasparov, and focusing instead on “creating solutions to real world problems” experienced by long-suffering corporations like Shell, BP and Goldman Sachs.
The world is a better place now you’ve chosen to use Adland’s unrivalled “skills, resources and influence” for PR purposes.
The alleviation of global poverty and quest to cure cancer will just have to make do with lesser talents in the fields of medicine, science, physics and mathematics.
@Bob you sad, sad person.
I’ll let the kids at AIME know that some anonymous keyboard warrior in the comment stream of Mumbrella doesn’t think Jase’s work with them is worth the effort.
@Bob wow, you’re a bitter piece of work aren’t you. Perhaps you could make the world a better place by choosing not to contribute your bile to comment threads across the world. Have a think about it. We’d love to see you do your part.
