This week we attended the CharityComms Communications on a Shoestring conference, giving some practical advice on how charities can best tackle their communications challenges on a tight budget.
Our workshop centred on the branding process – guiding people from the development of a strong brand proposition to the creation of a ‘big idea’ that brings it all to life. And we also explored brand personality, taking a look at some key brand role models to uncover the importance of a distinct identity that engages with the world in an interesting way.
The CharityComms event resonated really well with our core values at Neo – to help some of the world’s smallest, but best voices become some of its most powerful ones. As Nick, our Managing Director explains, “Neo is all about amplifying the voices of those organisations who are doing something good and interesting in the world. That’s why we believe workshops like these are so important – helping charities who might not have the budget to clearly articulate their offer, and breathe some life into their brand.”
We really enjoyed the running the workshop, and would like to thank all those who joined us.
Successful habits of visionary companies jim collins, jerry i. porrasBagas Adi
This summary provides the key insights from the book "Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies" by Jerry Porras and Jim Collins. The authors studied 18 visionary companies to understand what separates truly exceptional companies from others. They found that visionary companies preserve their core ideology while allowing other aspects to change over time. These companies also set ambitious long-term goals, have cult-like cultures where everyone buys into the core values, try many new ideas and keep what works, promote from within, and continually strive for improvement rather than being satisfied with the status quo. The book aims to understand the timeless principles rather than trends that make some companies able to thrive for decades.

4. A converged strategy should get customers to the know, like, trust, buy stages through both online and offline interactions. Technology can facilitate these connections but personal touches are also important.

MEDEAnet is a project with 8 partners in 7 European countries that is promoting media-based learning through local training, online resources, and knowledge sharing. It involves gathering information about media literacy policies, initiatives, and practices in the partner countries and publishing reports online to share knowledge more broadly.

The project aims to enhance understanding of best practices in media education through its research and knowledge sharing activities.
The document summarizes the activities of the MEDEAnet project from 2012-2014, which promoted media-based learning in organizations and among practitioners through local training events, online resources, and knowledge sharing.

The project also organized webinars and workshops in Greece on topics like developing documentaries in schools and integrating gaming in the classroom.

Maintaining a vision requires 1% new vision and 99% ongoing alignment through recasting the vision over time.

Challenges to the modern publishers
The last century has seen three important changes for the
media industry. It has moved…
• from a world of information scarcity to information

overload,
• from a world where commercial and government bodies
needed the media to disseminate information, to one where
they can disseminate information themselves.
• from a world where people needed the media for
information, to one where they can access – and produce –

a role simply processing content from
source to consumer.
He needs to move above the content.
