WHAT’S IN OUR BURNETT?!
The one with Razak…
At Leo Burnett Lagos, we love to celebrate our Leos and show the world who they are at work and outside work. Now, we’re introducing “What’s In Our Burnett?!” to celebrate anything and everything we do and what inspires our beautiful process.
This week, we are spotlighting one of our Leos, Abdulrazak Olympio. We want to celebrate him and tell everyone more about him and the work he does here. #excited! 💃🏻🕺🏽
What Do You Do At Leo Burnett Lagos?
I’m a senior art director. I work in a creative studio and we create magic everyday!
What Is Your Average Day Like At Leo Burnett?
I get here very early in the morning because that’s when I put on my thinking hat. Most of my ideas come in the morning so I try to make the most of it and be productive within that time. My typical day also involves a lot of meetings, iterations on work done, brainstorming and discussing new design ideas and solutions on briefs from our clients. I also like to listen to music while I work — out loud by the way. I’m the office DJ and everyone loves that — everyone I think.
Nice, so what’s your current playlist like ?
hmm, I’d say coming by Naira Marley, sere by dj spinall, falling by Ladipoe and Buju, bling by blaqbones and kilometer by Burna. *Razak’s playlist is featured on our Leo Burnett Lagos Playlist
What Do You Love Most About Design?
I love that I can change people’s perception about a lot of things through design. I really love the thinking process and make sure that I think deep — not outside the box. A lot of people are already thinking outside the box but not thinking deeply. Deep is where you find your diamond ideas. I also love how design helps people and brands solve problems.
What’s Your Most Valued Work Principle
A lot of play while you work. However you want to do it, make sure you play while you work because it helps you come up with great ideas.
Who Are You After 5:30?
I like to be on my bed, watching tv, playing games and going on dates with beautiful women.😉
