One thing to note about that picture is the associates are very young. And the ratio of men to women is almost the opposite of most creative departments I have seen. They might have more women because of the Dove account (or they might be Haley fans from account service). In any case, if this is representative of the turnout I would guess many guys passed on the opportunity to meet Haley.
Thanks for the insights, Miguel. It is nice to see young, hip employees of these agencies making comments like "Undeniably fantastic." Perhaps someone up the chain will take note.
