166: These women routinely save the day.

No Single Individual is a unique business model. It is a company of woment strategists who work for legacy shops like Deutsch NY, FCB NY and TBWA\Chiat Day LA.

Founded by Christine Olivas in 2021, No Single Individual is an "all-freelance firm [that] provides ancillary strategy and account teams to agencies across the globe, from the industry’s biggest names to hyper-local creative shops," according to its LinkedIn profile. In other words, when agencies struggle with impossible assignments, Christine and her colleagues swoop in as last-minute heroes.

Henry Gomez and I also met Cynthia Abad-Mancheno, one of Christine's colleagues. And we had an in-depth conversation about how they started, the nature of their work, and their thoughts on strategy and the industry.
