Joanne King
This week on Place Shapers, producer-turned-guest-host Ryan Strohl sits down with friend and former colleague, Joanne King—a legend behind the scenes whose agency career spanned decades, disciplines, and more than a few unforgettable moments.
From fax machines and paste-up boards to brand launches and operational wizardry, Joanne shares the evolution of agency life through her sharp wit and sharper instincts. She opens up about the long-term client who followed her across five jobs, the high-rise that changed Quincy MA, and the email that accidentally offered spankings to the entire office. Yes, really.
It’s a heartfelt, hilarious ride through a storied career—with lessons in leadership, loyalty, and the power of being just nosy enough.
