“Eyes widen, eyebrows arch, and the face puckers then smiles to express the Jaffe-juiced “Wow” — the natural occurrence when Joseph Jaffe offers his insights to a brand strategy problem. With The Zlotnick Group, Joseph has without fail come through with the big connecting dots that have led our Group to a breakthrough positioning…and inspired the creative team.
“As terribly busy as he is (it’s always a coup to snag him for an assignment), his obvious joyous participation in life, with family, friends, events “outside” of “work” infuse his ability to empathize and feel the cultural and human cues on the deeper levels we must explore to do our best work. Joseph is a great guy, a great wit, a brilliant strategist…just an amazing, lovely person, who brings out the best in everyone such that you find yourself arriving at breakthrough solutions naturally, surprisingly quickly, seemingly effortlessly.
“Yet, I know how much preparation that takes, and I nobody is as thoughtfully prepared as Joseph. His example is wonderfully contagious, making any group with him in it, a most formidable, unfair advantage for a client to have against any competitor.”
Rick Liebling, General Manager at VSC, an award-winning tech PR agency.
“Joseph uncovered for Pioneer the view on the future of Branding, Marketing and Digital communication. Joseph’s passionate performance & advice has helped me a lot in defining the European Digital Marketing / CRM Strategy & Roadmap for Pioneer.”
