About our humans

Annalise Brown

Founder/Director

After 25 years in the communications industry, Annalise wanted to explore further some of the organisational challenges she had experienced in the agencies she worked in and with her clients alike. She commenced her Masters of Creative Intelligence and Strategic Innovation at UTS and realised there was an opportunity to merge her experience and her learning.

Throughout her career, Annalise has gained insight into how organisational structures, systems and processes can be significantly negative. One of the main reasons for change failure is the lack of understanding of communication, internal and external.

Annalise is passionate about putting humans at the centre of organisational change. She is focused on showing organisations that you don’t have to forgo profit for human centricity. If you care about humans, the payoff will come.
