Our Team

Bringing It All Together

Our team is specialised and varies according to the sectors we are working in and the clients we are working with at any one time. We are a mixture of full – time and freelance project staff including specialists from diverse backgrounds, yet all with relevant experience, which we bring to bear on the individual projects we work. We believe strongly in the provision of a core full – time team for each project that is decided with our client.

Our aim is to give every initiative consistent, dedicated and experienced management but allowing also the freedom to leverage the best talent and resources available for the immediate task in hand. According to the specific requirements of every client and the needs of a particular initiative we build a team of collaborating professionals to suit. We draw upon the knowledge and capabilities of designers, ‘graphistas’, communicators, linguists, semioticians, market data professionals, psychologists, visualisers, copywriters, training & coaching specialists, academics & scientists. In our experience this is the only way of working that delivers an optimised solution for all initiative and client specific requirements.

WHY WE’RE CALLED ORIGIN?

The Meaning Behind The Name

We chose the name Origin for our endeavour because we figured it best describes how we think and the work that we produce. In our experience; purpose, vision and positioning thinking, should be the fundamental building block of an organisations’ corporate strategy. The start – point or source of an organisations’ corporate strategy must be the clear and consistent articulation and connection of purpose and vision to all stakeholders.

Purpose creates focus & gives meaning. Vision creates momentum & provokes direction. Intelligent Positioning™ Strategy helps an organisation connect with and manage the expectations of stakeholders.

It’s why it should be the place where all corporate strategy begins & ends.

OUR STORY

We first started doing what we do two decades ago on the premise that organisations and their corporate level operating brands were badly understood and often mis – represented. Back then all we really saw was the typical customer or consumer led focus of consulting and brand strategy agencies. We understood that this created a great opportunity for changing things for the better.

Our group is borne from the seat of great historical learning and original philosophical thinking; Athens, Greece. The Origin concept grew to encompass projects for clients across the Balkans and subsequently the Southern Europe region. Founded by an original three person team with a combined 50 years of consultancy and brand experience we are proud of our short yet eventful heritage.

Since our inception the Origin Corporate Consulting Team has forged a path towards a niche position as one of the very few management consultancies in the world; that focus attention purely towards developing the thinking and strategy behind an organisations’ Corporate Positioning. Realising that world – class Corporate Positioning Strategy needed to relate to both cultural and commercial aspects of operation we pioneered the thinking behind extended brand thinking to all types of organisations.

In 2012 Origin Corporate Consulting extended its footprint into South East Asia. Forging an alliance with an Indonesian based consultancy we began collaborations with some of the largest conglomerates operating in the region. In 2014 Origin Corporate Consulting founded a small London based group collaborating with recognised academic & professional bodies.
