You have to see it on a broader level. But you also have to activate it properly.
Martin Sorrell
You must not only focus on the consumer, but also on what it does to you internally - getting people aligned to the strategic mission of the company - what it does to the suppliers, governments, all your stakeholders.
Martin Sorrell
It is always easy to criticize, as Bernie Ecclestone is somebody with extreme opinions.
Martin Sorrell
Donald Trumps' senior advisor said on CNN that the US Presidential election was the ultimate reality TV show! Appeal to those you want to reach!
Martin Sorrell
The challenges some European economies have are such that it makes it very difficult for them. You have to go where the growth is.

I recently interviewed Bernie Ecclestone in London. He had a go at women, said [Vladimir] Putin should be running Europe and so on. He enjoys it - he's been doing it for such a long time. He has an entrenched position. The truth be known, he is unique, right?

There is much romanticism about Formula One of the past. Today it has to be more of a family sport, not less. It is a fixture in the Sunday afternoon TV programmes, and probably flamboyance - those white silk suits and devil-may-care attitudes - would be outworn attributes today.
Martin Sorrell
I believe that Virtual Reality will hit it big time. I know that some of my colleagues disagree, but I believe in it.
Martin Sorrell
[Formula One] is entertainment and it competes with other entertainments - and not with other racing formats. It competes with people's time on a weekend. So you have to deliver.
Martin Sorrell
The web attacks traditional ways of doing things and elites, and this is very uncomfortable for traditional businesses to deal with.
Martin Sorrell
We do things much the same way as we did 50, 60 or even 70 years ago. The answers may not be wrong, but we haven't experimented to see whether they are or not.
Martin Sorrell
The last person in the UK who described his product as being crap in public was one Gerald Ratner - and he was gone immediately.
Martin Sorrell
When I think back to 2005, the fast growth markets - what we call the fast growth markets - were probably ten percent of our business. They are now 31 percent.
Martin Sorrell
Technology will have moved on to an unimaginable level in ten years.
Martin Sorrell
If you are a driver of a team and have a certain set of sponsors, who is the target market for those sponsors? But, of course, it is also a question of nationality.
Martin Sorrell
Formula One gives a platform to companies like Rolex - and that's just in media space, watching television or reading newspapers, digital or physical. You see the brand in the context of the competition and bring it to the attention of everybody on a regular basis.
Martin Sorrell
In an era of transparency, you can have innovation without branding, but you cannot have branding without innovation.
Martin Sorrell
When you have two people challenge for the same job and you keep them both and call them co-CEOs, or the whole fiasco of a 'merger of equals'... there is no such a thing. So if there should be dreams of dual leadership, the chances of success are limited. But Bernie [Ecclestone] is still at the top of his game I have noticed.
Martin Sorrell
What still amuses me a bit is that in F1 people see the race basically on TV screens. But I am sure new tracks will be built.
Martin Sorrell
If you run a country and want to put it on the global map you don't have so many choices. You can get the Olympics, the World Cup or a Formula One race. And the first two are only every four years - and you have them only once.
