For the latest Marketing Society podcast Society Editor Mike Piggott spoke to Dr Nicki Morley, head of behavioural science and innovation expertise, insight division at Kantar and Lou Ellerton, senior director at Kantar’s consulting division.

They discussed 'that difficult second album' when it comes to meaningful innovation, how you innovate from both the top down and bottom up within businesses, what defines brave innovation (referencing Brewdog, Oatly, Halo Top and others), and whether brands can self-reflect and reinvent themselves in the way that David Bowie did in the '70s.
