Howard Belk pulls double duty as Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chief Creative Officer of leading global brand experience consultancy Siegel+Gale, which he claims is one (or two) of the six best jobs on the planet. He is an entrepreneur who helped a 50-year-old branding firm reestablish industry leadership by embracing its disruptor legacy. Since his arrival at the firm in 2004, he and his colleagues have established Siegel+Gale as The Simplicity Company, truly the go-to firm to help untangle the mind-bending brand mash ups that result from the entrepreneurial adventures of the CEOs they love. Howard decided to embark upon a creative career at the ripe age of 12 after a raucous lunch with his agency veteran dad and one of his creative director friends. Observer status only! Not too many years later he’d embarked on a career that has encompassed founding an agency; winning dozens of design and art direction awards; leading teams that won hundreds more; and scaling same agency to nine offices, multiple countries, over 500 employees, and a purchase by global marketing services leader, Omnicom Group. Over his career he has partnered with Fortune 500 clients to embrace the power of simplicity, purpose, experience and design to transform and grow their companies. Today he is one of those rare birds who understands both business and design, and more importantly how to embrace one to succeed at the other.
