Leo Burnett Toronto Promotes Kohl Forsberg to Executive Creative Director

Leo Burnett Toronto is promoting Kohl Forsberg to ECD after both a slew of new client wins – most recently Starbucks and Pizza Hut Canada – coupled with a haul of awards across EPICA, D&AD, Clios, One Show, ADCC, and the London International Awards.   

Relentless in his pursuit of excellence, Kohl consistently delivers ground-breaking work for the likes of Kellogg’s, Enbridge, GMC, Cadillac, Buick, Smucker’s and more. Kohl’s career spans over a decade, cutting his teeth as a writer and creative director at John St. before joining Leo Burnett Toronto in June 2019.

Said Steve Persico, co-CCO, “Kohl is a natural leader. During his time at Leo, he has helped get the very best out of his co-workers and develop relationships with clients based on trust and ambition. This promotion sets Kohl up to be an even bigger part in the building of the culture and quality of work we strive for. Leo and our clients are better for it."
