Victor Stroe is Associate Director and Head of Strategy at Leo Burnett Bucharest & President of Romanian Effie Awards Committee 2019.

Effie is fundamentally a way of thinking which brings together the basic elements of a communication campaign (context, challenge, objectives, strategy, creative ideas and results). #Effiethinking supports therefore promoting communication models, which form the basis to efficient campaigns above the annual competition, as a part of a correct marketing model.
