Menon retires from O&M
Chennai:
Mohan Menon, Ogilvy's Director (South), has retired
from advertising after a career spanning 32 years at the
agency. O&M was Menon's first and only job in his
career.
Menon, says a release from Ogilvy, was hired as a cub
copywriter at Ogilvy in Mumbai by Ranjan Kapur and went
on to become the Creative Director of the Chennai and
Bangalore offices. Menon was also closely involved with
Ogilvy's Sri Lankan operations during the pre- and post-acquisition
phase. He is a graduate of senior management programmes
in Toronto and New York and was one-time visiting faculty
at IIM, Ahmedabad.
Menon, the release said, drew a lot of inspiration from
the legendary David Ogilvy with whom he had spent time
over the years. Mohan and his wife Minnie, had occasion
to be invited to Touffou in France as David Ogilvy's houseguests.
