Getting “Spontaneously Candid” with Jeff Beer, Staff Editor, Fast Company

In this episode of “Spontaneously Candid,” Harjot turns the tables on accomplished advertising and marketing reporter, Jeff Beer – instead of him telling us a story we want to hear his. What are the key themes of his personal narrative? What drives him? What scares him? What is he proud of and what does he wish he could take back? If we were writing a full feature on Jeff Beer – what would the headline be? 

Jeff Beer, Staff Editor at Fast Company, covers advertising, marketing and brand creativity. He is one of the most well-regarded reporters covering our space, having written at the famed publication for years and for a suite of the industry’s top outlets prior, including Canadian Business Magazine, Marketing Magazine, AdAge, and Creativity Magazine.
