It was an absolute privilege chatting to Faris Yakob for episode 16! Faris is Co-Founder of the nomadic creative consultancy Genius Steals, along with his wife and partner Rosie. Genius/Steals have helped build strategies and consult iconic brands such as Gibson, Coca-Cola, Google, The Guardian and more; so you instantly know it's worth paying attention to this conversation.
Full-time nomad, strategist, speaker & author of 'Paid Attention: Innovative Advertising for a Digital World'. Named one of ten modern day MadMen by Fast Company and one of the most respected planners in the world in The Planning Survey. Basically, Faris is someone I was very much looking forward to learning from.
As you can probably imagine we had a lot to talk about and the conversation is an absolute goldmine of information. We chat about the realities of a nomadic lifestyle, the benefits to employers, how to stand out in a over saturated marketplace and lot's more.
