The Coca-Cola Company
With over twenty years of marketing experience at agencies and client-side, Daniele Henry has a proven track record of driving growth for iconic brands. She spent the last fourteen years at The Coca-Cola Company, proving that consumer-centric creativity can unlock growth for the company’s largest brands in global and North America. Henry currently leads the integrated content and creative agendas for Diet Coke, Fanta and Sprite in North America, and a large part of her role also includes influencing the business plans, brand strategies and innovations. Some of the work Henry is most proud of includes helping to author “Content 2020,” the vision for The Coca-Cola Company’s marketing ambition; Coke Zero’s “Make It Possible” campaign, recently the subject of a Harvard Business School case study; founding “Hilltop,” an internal program designed to build a pipeline of diverse talent and an environment where everyone can thrive; and leading Sprite’s Social Justice Platform.

Truth be told…I was ‘voluntold’, but what keeps me active is: I love getting out and talking to ‘the kids’ there is so much energy and positivity; they are my most challenging audience and I consider it my responsibility to nurture young talent.
I’m passionate about the future because I believe that creativity should always be part of the business model…not a nice to have.
Be more vulnerable.
Professor Mumford. She was challenging, fair and fun.
Helping the team do their very best work.
