Chant resigns as Publicis Singapore ECD

Publicis Singapore's Rodd Chant has confirmed his resignation from the agency, one year after joining as its first executive creative director. Chant cited the earlier departure of worldwide creative director David Droga as a key factor behind his decision, and noted that he is currently in talks with a number of agencies in the US and Asia-Pacific. "I joined so as I could work at a company that had somebody of Droga's calibre at the helm, and after he left I started re-evaluating what I wanted to do and where I wanted to do it," said Chant.
