MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Strategy professionals, creative thinkers, and advertising innovators are invited to elevate their craft at the Manila Strategy Masterclass with Mark Pollard on Tuesday, January 20, 2026. Hosted by Sweathead, the global strategy community led by celebrated strategist and author Mark Pollard, this in-person masterclass brings a rare opportunity for Filipino and regional talent to learn directly from one of the industry’s most dynamic minds.
Mark Pollard — founder of Sweathead and author of the acclaimed Strategy Is Your Words — returns to Manila following the overwhelming success of his sold-out events at Aura SMX in 2024. This immersive half-day session takes place from 1:30–5:30 PM, with light refreshments included and a venue to be announced by the middle of January 2026.
Designed for strategists, planners, creatives, and brand leaders seeking practical skills that redefine strategic thinking, the masterclass will:
- Break down Mark’s signature Four Points framework—the backbone of impactful strategy.
- Explore both linear and lateral idea generation methods that push beyond convention.
- Teach participants how to craft robust insights and strategic narratives that resonate with real audiences.
- Provide hands-on exercises where attendees create their own strategy work live.
Pollard’s interactive approach doesn’t just explain strategy — it invites attendees to experience it. Participants will also receive a personalized certificate of completion, a powerful credential for career development and agency recognition.
This masterclass is ideal for professionals ready to sharpen their strategic minds, strengthen their creative impact, and join a growing global network of forward-thinking strategists.
The venue for the event will be announced soon. For tickets and more information, visit the official event page.
