Founder at Hammond Thinking
August 2012
Hammond Thinking is about creating an understanding and awakening within the business world - and broader global consumer society - about the cultural phenomenon of branding and its power to unite, define and dramatically dictate people's behaviours within companies and communities. At its heart, Hammond Thinking seeks to challenge society's norms and question old ways in an effort to redefine how we live, work and progress. It's this challenging that has led to the celebrated Be Brands philosophy, the The Be Counsel strategic brand agency in America, the unique business show, Podium Rock, in New York and Los Angeles and the soon to be launched creative centre, The Brand Temple.
