Instead of the regular “Year In Review” post, MultiCultClassics introduces White Man Of The Year 2025.
The new honor spotlights the White Man who made the greatest negative impact on Adland in the last 12 months—as well as contributed to DEIBA+ devolution.
The inaugural award goes to two White men whose actions have dramatically affected the global industry, albeit in extraordinarily different ways.
Omnicom Chairman, CEO, and Pioneer of Diversity John Wren
Wren orchestrated the Omnicom acquisition of IPG, which technically began and was announced in 2024 (maybe earlier).
The scheme ignited global pruning, radical RIFs, and iconic nameplate erasures. And the corporate demolition/deconstruction/desecration is expected to extend into 2026 and beyond.
Blending an organization led by the Pioneer of Diversity with a gobbledygook-vomiting enterprise recognized for leadership in diversity and inclusion marked the pinnacle of performative PR. Then again, the lack of transparency involving anti-DEIBA+ maneuvers prohibited assessing how much collateral damage of color occurred. It’s a safe bet, however, that the acquisition accelerated the employment challenges faced by US Black women.
In short, thousands of livelihoods—along with countless uncounted Dawn Chambers—were eliminated.
President Donald J. Trump
Tylenol, Tariffs, Bashing Big Pharma, and Anti-Woke + Anti-DEIBA+ are just the tip of the Trump iceberg that sank Adland. ‘Nuff said.
