Intelligent creativity
As an internal communications and employee engagement agency, we’ve been making waves, earning accolades, and bashfully accepting awards independently for over two decades. All in our pursuit of a singular objective: to influence the awareness, attitude and behaviour of employees.
Our expertise extends to executing impactful diversity campaigns, ensuring your voice is heard in the pursuit of a more inclusive and diverse workplace.
At blue goose, we harness #intelligentcreativity to drive shifts in the awareness, attitude and behaviour of employees. It’s where the science meets the spark – behavioural insights matched with the right words, images, sights and sounds to inspire change in your people.
THINK
We listen, and then we apply. We become an extension of your team, immersing ourselves in your business, (gently) challenging you to reap rewards. We know an important reason for communicating anything to your people is to help achieve your business objectives. That’s a big responsibility but one that we’re passionate about and we always keep it in mind.
CREATE
We always start with strategy, then apply unexpected creativity that transforms your stories in distinctive and memorable ways. We work hard to make sure your messages land, cut through and truly engage your audience. That means ensuring the subjects we talk about, the language, scenarios and channels we choose are completely relevant to your audience.
IMPACT
Before we start any communications project, we like to measure current levels of awareness and understanding of the topic in your organisation. This creates a benchmark, to help provide the demonstrable evidence that change has taken place, once the project ends. We’ll make sure you can prove your investment with us by measuring engagement before, after and during the work we do with you, wherever possible.
