BRANDING THE NEW WORLD

New World Strategy

Brand strategy is the north star that guides the direction of a whole business. New World Strategy injects radical new world thinking into the way you build your brand.

Rather than future-proofing, with the business on the back-foot adopting a defensive strategy from seemingly unrelenting and terrifying change, this is about future-creation from a regenerative lens.

I guide you to excavate the parts of your story that live in the shadow and explore how to live in the “both, and…” of collective transition. We dream up New Worlds together and your team becomes a vessel for what lives and what gets left behind.

Ultimately, you learn how to tell a deeply rooted brand story rooted in truth, nuance and deep listening.

This work is for entrepreneurs, businesses and teams remoulding their relationship with the work they are here to do or building something entirely unheard of and needing to not only communicate it but shift collective action.

From regenerative start-ups, to global companies in transition, I guide you to move from the old world into the new. I work as a guide and our process together will take on a New World free-form shape. Previous iterations have looked like:

  • Brand storytelling and manifesto projects for teams leading regenerative solutions that nobody really gets yet or wants to adopt

  • True Voice workshops for leaders, teams and brands unlearning corporate performance in their communication

  • Strategic workshops to get to the heart of a brand challenge, release old world rules and excavate the new world truth

  • Flexible, Accessible WhatsApp consulting for Global Majority and Global South founders building in real-time

This work is not for everyone. And it is certainly not for teams looking to repackage extractive work in New World clothing. However if you are looking to dive in deeply, honestly and with plenty of laughter, there may be much we can arrive at together.

I built the brand voice for Swarovski and Standard Chartered, led the strategy for Soneva’s global rebrand and headed up the content marketing team at Zero Gravity. Since leaving corporate, I consult with global founders especially in the UK, US and my ancestral homelands of Zimbabwe and Southern Africa, as we learn how to build regenerative brands for circular economies. I now offer rooted brand birthing, workshops and strategy for those building the New World, guided by ancient wisdom and my radical, futurist spirit.
