If the first four parts of this MadMen, Dreamers and Deal-Makers series were about the machine, how it was built from accidents, battered by economics, bruised by burnout, and handed to a new generation, this part is about something stranger. What happens when the machine learns to think? Not “think” like a creative director pacing in Kololo at 2 am, or a media buyer staring at a GRP spreadsheet. Think in code. In predictions. In prompts. When the tools you once used to execute your ideas start quietly suggesting ideas of their own. For nearly four decades, Uganda’s advertising engine…

If the first part of this series was about how the madmen stumbled into the machine, and the second about how the money broke it, this part is about what the machine does to the people inside it. Not the awards. Not the case studies. The bodies. The marriages. The minds. On a pitch night in Kampala, somewhere between midnight and 3 am, the city goes quiet, but the minds behind the advertising agencies get louder. A designer is on revision 17 of a key visual. A copywriter is arguing with themselves over whether “unlock” or “unleash” feels more premium….

If part one of MadMen, Dreamers and Deal-Makers was about how Uganda’s advertising giants stumbled into the industry, this part, which is precisely part two, reminds you of what happened after they got in, and what it feels like to keep the machine running now that the fuel is running out. There was a time when this business felt almost decadent. Retainers were thick. Media commissions flowed. A small set of agencies handled a small set of giant brands, and the money felt endless. Today, many of those same people sit behind the same desks, staring at three-page scopes and…

If Uganda had built a proper advertising pipeline, this story would be very boring. There would be brochures in Senior Six career offices defining “account management.” Parents would nod proudly when their children said, “I want to be a copywriter.” Makerere would have a Faculty of Integrated Communications and Creative Strategy. There’d be a predictable path: degree, internship, junior role, promotion. Instead, the people who built this industry came in through side doors. One thought “copywriting” was about copyright law. Another was meant to be a pharmacist. One was headed for law before veering into fine art. Another walked into…

Candid and compelling, Amani unpacks the philosophy behind #TheZeusWay—a relentless commitment to speed, quality, and consistency—and reflects on what it takes to lead Gen Z creatives, earn client trust, and stay sane in a high-pressure, fast-turnaround industry. He also doesn’t shy away from calling out client-agency dynamics, Uganda’s work ethic culture, and the myths surrounding Gen Z entitlement and success. Part of our MadMen of Uganda feature series, this interview is a powerful reminder that today’s new-age agency leaders are not just designers or strategists—they’re builders, mentors, and bold challengers of convention. Curiously, on many of your platforms—from LinkedIn to…
