"Creativity has and will always be at the heart of the Ogilvy brand and culture. Piyush is the perfect leader to shepherd the legacy as we continue to focus on making brands matter as the leading creative network in the world," Ogilvy worldwide chief executive John Seifert was quoted as saying in the statement.
