happened.
• Smartphone penetration is now at 78%(UK).
• Mobile and Tablet is the preferred way for new
customers to find out about new
brands/Events/Ideas.
• People can begin a journey with you from
anywhere.

are at the centre.
4. Owned Media, Bought Media, and Earned Media
Think of Smartphones as your BBC 1, BBC 2, ITV
– a device that you can distribute content on.
There is great value in what is shared. Facebook
and Twitter don’t make you pay for it.

5. I wanted to see how
I had changed
because of my use
of smartphones, and
the best way to do
that was to go back
just 7 years.
The golden age of mobile phones
7. Less able to remember information as we crowd
source answers from friends and Google.
We are less able to concentrate if we know we
have a message on our phones.
Often what we think of as multi-tasking is in fact
just task switching.
Distraction is hindering our ability to process
memories and store them long term. (Long term
effect unknown)
(Don’t worry this has happened before)

We tend to live in the
distracted present, where the
forces of the periphery are
magnified and those of in front
of us ignored. Our ability to
create, plan, much less follow
through on, is undermined by
our need to be able to
improvise our way through any
number of infernal impacts
that stand to derail us at any
moment.

16. Narrative Collapse
There is no society doesn’t tell
stories.
Storytelling is how we transmit
value, it has a cultural use.
It creates context. It is
comforting and orienting. It
helps smooth out obstacles
and impediments by recasting
them as bumps along the road
to some better place.
But
How do we tell stories and
convey values without the time
required to tell a linear story?

Fitbit, Garmin, and Nike—say they don't sell personally identifiable
information collected from fitness devices. But privacy advocates warn that
the policies of these firms could allow them to sell data, if they ever choose
to do so.
26. Most data companies see people like this. They are

They only really see computers – they don’t see the people
31. We are all changing.
With our new
knowledge of Social
networking, comes
a desire to
understand the
value of the types of
our new social
relationships.
How much can we
trust these
technologies?
How much do we
trust the people
within our networks
Also how much do
we trust our
governments.
37. Everyone has at least two identities.
We have a work identity and and home one.
When it comes to our own digital brand it is
helpful to try and bring these persona’s
together.
What is your personal brand
38. Write down the roles that you have in your life.
Father, brother, entrepreneur, writer, sometimes
a teacher.
Choose at least 6.
What excites you about each of these roles?
Come up with a 8 word sentence to describe
yourself.
e.g – 101 Dalmatians - Spotted puppies avoid
futures as fur coat components.

39. Look at your roles.
Look at your partners, potential customers,
stakeholders.
Look at what their job is . Define it.
What are their biggest problems.
What are they trying to do?
How can you help them as individuals?
How can you make their pains go away, how
can you help them grow?

47. Fragments are often de-
contextualised. You don’t
know what came before of
after.
You have to build context
– You have to create a
sense of satisfaction in
non narrative means.
How do you rebuild
context and narrative?
You provide the trust &
Authenticity by sharing.

48. You need less contracts.
Important when you can’t monitor your
employees work.
Trust is especially needed in the creative
industries.
Litigation Is less frequent.
Less resources to protecting yourself. Tax,
Insurance, bribes or private security.
Low trust discourages innovation. More time to
dealing with bad employees, partners etc
Trust is the Glue of Stories in
Social Media.

49. (Arrow 1972) – Economic actions that require
some agents to rely on the future action of
others are accomplished at lower costs in
higher trust environments.
“Virtually every commercial transaction has
within itself an element of trust, certainly every
transaction conducted over a period of time.”
Much economic backwardness in the world can

59. Taking control of the fragments
The sip pitch. – It is the pitch you can do
whilst someone is taking a sip of their drink.
A sip pitch is always the answer to the
question about what you do. Or what your
project is.
So what do you do......
Oh me? I ……….
It it a good sip pitch it will be intriguing
enough to illicit another question.

The chance of an Web user clicking on an ad and
going straight to the purchase page is about as
likely as a pedestrian hailing a taxi and asking the
driver to take him or her directly to the place
advertised on the side of the cab – VERY SMALL.
It is more likely the user will make
a note and visit later. Online,
you can measure exactly this:

The Pixar Theory that all of the Pixar movies actually exist within the same universe.
http://www.pixartheory.com/ - demo of connections
Everything is connected
So how do you start taking back the power of your brand in order to tell your brand story?
You start by looking for patterns and realising that everything is connected. Everything you are, everything you do and everything you say.
All the world’s a stage
Session 1: Who am I? 15 minutes
Most of us (and this applies to businesses as well) are trying to manage at least two personalities. Who we are in our professional context and who are we in our social context?
There is only one version of you. The more you fight to keep them separate the more fragmented you become, the more energy you use and the less time you spend being who you are really meant to be.
We tend to wear masks. There are lots of different psychological and sociological theories about why masking but I’m quite interested in the concept of Dramaturgy, the theory that we wear different character and or social masks depending on the audience, situation, and or view of the theatre of life that we are currently performing in.
But is that authentic and what does that do to the story we are trying to tell about ourselves and our personal brands? Do we push out narratives rather than have or be open to have dialogue and real connections?
Now I’m going to ask you to strip that back and hold a mirror up to yourselves for a moment. Look at the person behind those different masks and see what patterns see and can you make any connections?
What character, identity or masks do we wear?
What excites us but those different masks or identities?
I’d like you to take 8 pieces of paper and on the top of each write down what role you currently play (personally or professionally) e.g. Mother, Daughter, Entrepreneur….(2 mins)
When you have written all 8, go back to the first piece of paper and now write underneath, what excites you about that role.
Now I want you to rank those pieces of paper in order of importance to you where you are now in your life/ career. Don’t worry the order can change but this is about you in the NOW.
Now looking at your top 3, find a partner and have a short discussion about each of those roles and there reason they excite you.
Ask for some to share with the group and reflect on any personal revelations/ surprises.
