Mohamed MagdyCreative Director

One decision, made everywhere.

Mohamed MagdyCreative Director, Dubai

I turn brand strategy into a visual idea, then into the system that carries it across markets, formats and languages. Today I lead digital creative at GMG for Nike, adidas, Puma and Sun & Sand Sports. Before that, Tamara, Amazon and Al-Futtaim.

Approach

A clear point of view, built with the team and held to the highest standard.

Start with the human truth.

Before a word is written or a frame is shot, I want to know what people feel and why they care. Work that starts from a real truth earns attention instead of buying it.

Build ideas that travel.

A strong idea is a platform, not a post. I shape it so it can live across film, retail, digital and every market, and still sound like one brand.

Lead the team, protect the vision.

I set a clear direction, give people ownership and make room for their best work. My job is to keep the bar high and everyone moving the same way.

Craft is the difference.

People feel quality before they can explain it. Every frame, word and detail is held to the same standard, because that is where trust in a brand is won.

Profile

Twelve years across brand, retail and product.

I have led creative in-house at retailers, a fintech and one of the world's largest marketplaces, and I now lead digital creative for global sports brands across the Gulf.

That mix taught me to think like the business and design like the brand: start from the commercial problem, find the insight, and build a system a team can run without me in the room.
