What makes the Loeries committee tick?
With less than a month to go until the 2008 Loerie Award festival weekend, we decided that it's time to have a little fun with Loerie committee members. Bizcommunity.com recently asked them a few questions - some of them professional, some of them personal - to help you understand what makes them tick. First up was Festus Masekwameng, creative director, McCann-Erickson SA and Loerie Awards committee chairman. 4 Jul 2008 09:16
