Getting it done

ALL OF US AT APPLIED ARE STRATEGISTS, DESIGNERS AND PRODUCERS. WHILE WE EACH HAVE AN AREA OF EXPERTISE THAT WE EXCEL IN, IT IS WHEN WE BLUR THE BOUNDARIES THAT IT ALL COMES TOGETHER.
STRATEGISTS
Are responsible for uncovering relevant information, market dynamics and stakeholder opinions and turning them into actionable strategies.
DESIGNERS
Are the visual thinkers. They see the world a little differently. They are responsible for turning the strategic direction into an inspiring and engaging experience.
PRODUCERS
Are the people who know how to make things happen. They have a strong desire to build the world we have collectively envisioned.
OBSERVE
Gathering data is always a good way to start. By observing the problem and the many users and stakeholders involved, we are able to capture insights and formulate hypotheses that shape the solutions to come.
DEFINE
Once we have developed our hypotheses, we articulate our strategy and positioning in a way that enables the design and communication to be fully realized.
CREATE
This phase is where we transform all of the knowledge and understanding we have gained into tangible, actionable solutions.
