Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Ralf Specht is one of the founding partners of Spark44. Between 2011 and 2020, he was instrumental in building a tailor-made worldwide demand creation marketing communications organization for Jaguar Land Rover. Specht believes in the fundamental power of brands and is determined to move all barriers out of the way to allow global brands to succeed. His 20-plus years in various roles within McCann Erickson enabled him to completely understand the organizational levers to establish a truly effective agency model in today´s multi-channel world. Radical transparency is one of the key enablers, hence the creation of the first client/agency joint-venture model.
Being the architect of Spark44´s growth Ralf ensured that more than 800+ associates were focused on one key objective: supporting the success of both the Jaguar and the Land Rover brands across all markets and all channels. In 2018, he started phase two of Spark44´s being by opening the agency towards new clients outside the Jaguar Land Rover business.
During his time at McCann, he led both global brands such as General Motors as well as local offices at both the mothership McCann Erickson, as well as the experiential and digital communications firm Momentum. Ralf studied business administration in Zurich, Switzerland and started his professional career with Bertelsmann Publishing Group.
