The One Club appoints Lisa Fedyszyn to judge global competition

NEW YORK, Today: Special Auckland ECD Lisa Fedyszyn is among the 70 creatives from 27 countries named by The One Club for Creativity to serve on the jury for Next Creative Leaders 2023, a free global competition recognising women and non-binary creatives on the rise.

Now in its ninth year, Next Creative Leaders is a free portfolio competition that identifies, celebrates, and provides a global platform to talented women and non-binary creatives who are making their mark on the world with both their work and unique point of view on creative leadership that’s changing the industry for the better.

The portfolio competition is held in partnership with The 3% Movement, recognising women and non-binary creatives.

“There is no fee to enter.”

Eligible participants for NCL are those stepping into leadership roles, including copywriters, art directors, designers, ACDs, newly promoted creative and design directors with less than one year in the role, and creative teams who are doing game-changing work.

“There is no fee to enter.”

Entries highlighting a candidate’s creativity, leadership, and unique point of view must be submitted by the December 1, 2023 deadline. To make Next Creative Leaders as open and accessible as possible, there is no fee to enter, with a strong push for candidates to self-nominate.

Winners will be announced in February 2024.

Winners have their work showcased on The One Club website, promotion on both The 3% Movement and The One Club social channels, and potential opportunities to speak on the annual Next Creative Leaders panel. The global winners also get a dedicated profile article on The One Club website.

Branding for Next Creative Leaders 2023 was designed by Selina Kehuan Wu, an MFA candidate at Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, and a Type Directors Club TDC69 competition winner.
