STRATEGY_

‘Why are we doing this?”

That’s the big bang question. Great ideas are everywhere, all the time. We use science to aim them and sharpen their focus, and they become money.

We start with researchinsights and good thinking.

We show up. Then we put on a show.

PRODUCTION_

We make stuff right.

Creativity is our heartbeat. But we have budgets to stick to and valuable audiences to build. Execution is much more than cool ideas.

Great production pulls creativity into the real world. Live, online, social, activation, radio and TV – we make it.
Magic needs budgets, schedules, floor plans and safety sign-offs.

Ideas, theories and concepts come to life with a team of dedicated humans behind the scenes.

DESIGN_

We visualise data, stimulate neural networks, trigger curiosity and encourage retention.

The golden thread that pulls strategy and production together. We don’t just make nice pictures – we use art and science to arrange information better.

See talks below:

1. Apex – What Makes Us Human. 

Based on John’s MBA thesis research, he unpacks how our identity holds the key to how we trust. This is an invaluable topic as it provides insight into how relationships are formed in the workplace between individuals from various groups. He takes the audience from current South African boardrooms through a mix of science, anthropology, psychology and neurology to paint a crisp picture of how we perceive reality. The basis of trust is agreement on what is real. Moving beyond our version to grasp the shared version is less difficult than it seems.

2. Elastic Leader – Humility. Fluidity. Credibility. 

John sketches out his worldview developed over three decades of continuous reinvention and refusal to be pigeonholed – whether playing a world-famous stage, or collaborating to pioneer consumer-centric awards programmes for the comedy and automotive industries.

He then breaks down his process, to give the audience a view on how he manages to remain fluid while still applying rigour – so as to avoid being indecisive. He shows how action completes the cycle of elasticity.

3. Community.

Building safe, purposive spaces for shared self-expression is possible by synthesizing the social contracts of a therapeutic community and new tech. This talk gives you a clear picture of what that looks like for your consumer. Use your resources to build communities that will help humans. Get insight into how to incorporate new technology such as DAO, NFT and Distributes Ledgers into your community design and growth.

4. The Real Deal.

Whether you’re negotiating a deal, or your way through a coffee break conversation – you can improve your contribution if you understand what makes you who you are. By grasping the building blocks of your own identity, you automatically develop perspectives on how others experience the world. By being able to appreciate “distance travelled” to the table – you intuitively become more able to reach a win-win deal with others.
