Today, building an employer brand is about much more than cultural gimmicks. Developing a robust internal communication strategy that demonstrates a deep understanding of your people and their underlying psychology is crucial. 

Crafting business cultures that are both authentic and inspiring, we help elevate your organisation above the rest. Attract top talent to your open roles, and foster a culture your people are proud to be a part of.

What we deliver

Tapping into the power of communications psychology and behavioural economics, our team of experts will uncover what makes your employees tick - using these insights to drive positive company-wide change. Services include:

Employer brand & values

Struggling to retain talent? It’s time for an employer brand switch up. We delve into exactly what makes you unique, ensuring your company messaging stands out in candidate-driven markets.

Company
values

Too often, company values merely pay lip service to platitudes. We build value concepts that inspire shared behaviours - from the factory floor to the boardroom.

Employee engagement

Our Scientific Board has extensive knowledge of 300+ cognitive biases. We hone in on exactly what motivates your employees, crafting internal comms strategies built to align and engage.

Change management

Leveraging behavioural economics, we develop change strategies for complex organisations, workshopping with stakeholders every step of the way.

Internal communication planning

Make every internal communication count. With our deep expertise in psychology, we take a rigorous approach to your IC strategy - ensuring you avoid communication overload and complexity.
