Background

About Andy Stubbings

Consumer strategy leader with deep experience across insight, foresight, brand development and innovation • I thrive at and have a consistent track record in “shaping the future” – providing clear, well-grounded and imaginative strategic direction for a brand, a category, or an organization based on robust insight and foresight • My “spikes” are in galvanizing teams and organizations to be more externally and future-focused to unlock growth; distilling and articulating a way forward from complex, messy or disparate data; generating possibilities, ideation and shaping early stage initiatives • I am very experienced working with diverse teams and operating in different international environments: I have lived or worked across Latin America (Mexico and previously Chile), Africa, Asia (China, Japan), USA and Europe • My leadership style is to give others enough direction and freedom to thrive and feel in control of their work, making time to mentor and coach when needed, and to try and make work fun, pacey and personally meaningful
