Eidra's Co-CEO: How pragmatism drives growth – Måns Hosk

He explains how strategy, creativity, technology, data and AI have been brought together to solve broader business problems, while maintaining the specialist expertise clients still value.</p><p>The conversation explores what integration looks like in practice, why overwhelming clients with capability is rarely effective, and how Eidra’s ‘bring a friend’ approach has helped build deeper, more valuable relationships.</p><p>Måns also reflects on AI, organisational change, and why Scandinavian values such as collaboration, pragmatism and humility have become important advantages.</p><p><strong>HIGHLIGHTS:</strong></p><p>[02:38] What is Eidra?</p><p>[08:06] All about solidarity</p><p>[11:05] The challenges of integration</p><p>[12:54] Applying pragmatism</p><p>[16:06] Starting with transformation</p><p>[21:11] Bring a friend approach</p><p>[30:36] New superstars vs obsolescence</p><p>[31:46] The Scandinavian advantage</p><p>[35:07] Eidra’s next chapter</p><p></p><p><strong>MORE ABOUT MÅNS HOSK:</strong></p><p>LinkedIn: <u><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/m%C3%A5ns-jacobsson-hosk-9123044/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">linkedin.com/in/m%C3%A5ns-jacobsson-hosk-9123044/</a></u></p><p>Website: <u><a href="https://eidra.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">eidra.com</a></u></p><p></p><p><strong>HOST SOCIALS:</strong></p><p>LinkedIn: <u><a href="https://linkedin.com/in/robinbonn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">linkedin.com/in/robinbonn</a></u></p><p>Twitter: <u><a href="https://twitter.com/robonn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">twitter.com/robonn</a></u></p><p></p><p><strong>MORE ABOUT CO:DEFINERY:</strong></p><p>Website: <u><a href="https://codefinery.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">codefinery.com</a></u></p><p>Book: <u><a href="https://marketofone.agency" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Market of One</a></u></p><p>Mentioned in this episode:</p><p><strong>Get Co:definery's diagnostic questionnaire</strong></p><p>Is your agency  really as differentiated as you think?
