Fallon Worldwide on Jan. 23 fired top creative Paul Silburn less than a year after he joined the agency amid lackluster new-business results.

I needed to make a change and that change called for decisiveness. Mr. Silburn, who joined the agency from TBWA London, told Ad Age: "I agree that change is needed.''
