HSBC UAE and J. Walter Thompson Dubai launched ‘I Recommend Mum’ campaign that leverages human insight and UAE country objectives to encourage mothers to return to work after taking a break to handle the most important job of all – being a mom. The campaign video successfully addresses issues faced by mothers opting to re-enter the business world and uses children as spokespeople for mothers who were ‘on a break’ from their careers. HSBC turns the concept of the recommendation letter on its head with children vouching for their moms, casting a spotlight on all they have achieved during their time away.
