Are the Laws of Growth in fashion?
I am typing this in a Marimekko sweater that seemed like an essential purchase during my last trip to Finland, a pair of black pants from a brand called Residus whose tagline is ‘luxury that won’t f**k up the planet’ and my shoes are James Perse that I bought at a sample sale. To quote the Kinks, I am indeed, a ‘dedicated follower of fashion.’ Fashion can be a wonderful form of self-expression, and many brands have their own style that we co-opt for ourselves, or see in others.
The power of neuroscience-led storytelling
Standing out requires more than creativity — it demands a deep understanding of how the human brain processes information. This is crucial for creating and executing marketing strategies, campaigns, stories, and internal communications. Neuroscience-led storytelling is one powerful way of doing this. By leveraging insights into how the brain handles information, emotions, and experiences, brands can create stories that captivate, engage, and influence audiences more effectively.

Morbin’ time! When brands misread internet culture
Speaking the language of internet culture is crucial for any brand — something we’re all, hopefully, well aware of in today’s late-stage social media era. But something you might not know is that in 2020, the global meme industry was valued at an inconceivable $2.3 billion dollars, and this figure is projected to almost triple by 2025. Or, that businesses who use memes in their marketing are 60% more likely to land sales than those who opt for traditional graphics.
Waitrose unveils ‘Farming for Nature’ scheme

Barbies to Archies: the '60s for Gen Z in India
Earlier this year, Barbie’s hot pink marketing blitz proved the power of effective brand collaborations and cemented the movie as a cultural touchstone. Now, Netflix India’s The Archies are borrowing a page from the Barbie playbook. They’ve gone all out with a whole slew of brand partnerships, re-imagining the swinging ’60s for Gen Z audiences across India.
Disruption doesn’t always mean moving fast and breaking things
With rapid technological change, businesses are constantly having to keep up A willingness to disrupt what has gone before is a key requisite for any leader today. But when it comes to effecting change within a business or a brand, it’s not always about moving fast and breaking things. More often than not the most effective strategies for large-scale change are a roadmap of well-planned, incremental changes that are consistently reviewed and tweaked.
What can fashion teach us about building desire?
When Moncler staged its Art of Genius spectacle at London’s Olympia in March, it took brand experience to a whole new level. 10,000 brand fans joined glitterati from FKA Twigs to Justin and Hailey Bieber for the ultimate collab activation. Jay-Z’s Roc Nation introduced community sourced music project The Art of All; Pharrell Williams’ The Art of Terrain was a surreal outdoor wonderland; while Palm Angels + Boiler Room put on a foam rave.

What’s more, using the intuitive Lexus Link app on my phone, I can schedule the air conditioning to turn on ahead of my journey so that the car is chilled to my chosen temperature before I even leave the house.

“Why Women with ADHD Benefit the Most from Meditation.”
Women with ADHD are an historically overlooked demographic — and for that they pay a high price. A late diagnosis, a misdiagnosis (or several), and a lack of true ADHD awareness translate to years of struggling unnecessarily, suffering low self-esteem, being misunderstood, and believing something is inherently “wrong” with them.
Balancing Utility Performance, Cost, And Risk In The Face Of A Pandemic

Be Prepared: Planning for Risk Assessment and Emergency Response Requirements Under America’s Water Infrastructure Act
By Will Williams & Ahmet Ozman Even those of us who were not Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts can recite the Scouting motto: “Be Prepared,” originally meant to be watchful and ready for anything, which made Scouts invaluable for patrol and other service during World War I and World War II. On Oct. 23, 2018, America’s Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) of 2018 was signed into law, essentially requiring water utilities to be better prepared for a wide range of threats.
Four Things We Can Learn from Meditation Anxiety
It may seem ironic that meditation — a technique that helps manage stress — can itself inspire anxiety. However, qualms about taking up meditation are common, and they illustrate perfectly that our automatic stress response can fire in situations which are wholly inappropriate. Misgivings inspired by meditation also show how easily stress can develop, in even the least ostensibly stressful of contexts. Far from being useless, these kinds of worries can be transformative teachers.
How Meditation Can Make You Happier
Despite many of us in the modern world enjoying a level of comfort and luxury that would be been unimaginable for most of human history, we still find it very hard to be happy. In fact, it seems that modern society is contributing to our fatigue and discontentment — with high-pressure working lives, decreased sense of community and a perceived lack of meaning all causing strain. As much as we may struggle, however, the pursuit of happiness is still the primary goal for most people.

what are the benefits for productivity?
When it comes to work, people in the UK are among the most dissatisfied in Europe. It isn’t too hard to see why. We work longer and longer hours and yet innovation and productivity remain low. And hard work—that strangely British virtue—isn’t the problem: in October, a report found Britons are working harder than ever. One professor put it best when he said that people in the UK are working harder and harder ‘just to stand still’.
Productivity low, innovation scarce… employees dissatisfied
Article by: Will Williams | Published: 11 December 2018 Will Williams 10 December 2018 Speaking to the Harvard Business Review, the former CEO of Honeywell, Lawrence Bossidy, said that in his mind, there was ‘nothing more important than hiring and developing people’. ‘At the end of the day,’ he said, ‘you bet on people, not strategies’. Contributor Will Williams, Founder – Will Williams Meditation. Of course, he’s right. It’s something any human resources professional knows.
Knowing When You Need to Change, And When to Let Go
We are so often prone to blaming ourselves when our lives aren’t working out as we hoped. The cultural touchstones which help to define much of our society have been internalized by all of us, and deeply affect our self-perception. The Protestant work ethic, the American Dream, even divine punishment; these concepts inform our thoughts and opinions, and can make us feel that if only we can change ourselves, then everything will fall into place.

How Will Williams Went From Party Boy To Meditation Teacher
Will Williams was facing burn out after years working in the music industry when he discovered the practice that would change the course of his future The party lifestyle that came with my job managing music artists, meant I consumed whatever was on offer, from Class A drugs to snorting absinthe. I was one of those people who didn’t have an off button, but after years of touring the world and running club nights, I found I’d lost my mojo and was drifting through life.
How to integrate meditation into daily life
How to meditate There are many methods which means we can each explore our own unique way. From breathing, mindfulness and visualisation to generic or personalised mantras (as I teach) they all deliver something. One useful distinction I learned from years of travelling the world, trying different techniques, is that there are monastic-derived methods and ‘householder’ techniques.
What is meditation and how could it change your life?
What is meditation? Broadly speaking, it is any eyes-closed practise that enables you to calm your nervous system down to a level where you can experience deeper levels of benefit from sleep, diet, exercise, learning or creative expression. (Some would argue that there are eyes-open forms of meditation, though I would class those as sadhana, or spiritual practises).
I, Student Of Kung Fu Master Zhou Zhen Dong
By Will Wain Williams | 26 May 2018 The first time I met my Shifu, he greeted me with kind eyes and a warm smile. I was given a senior student to learn the horse stance and straight punch. Then, I was left to my own devices and practically ignored for almost a week. There were two training sessions a day, one in the morning and one at night, each one about two hours. I didn’t really know why I was ignored like this, but I decided just to keep drilling these two moves in the corner.

Is Presenteeism Costing Your Small Business?
When discussing poor productivity and lost profits, we hear very often about absenteeism. Instantly noticeable and with a cost that is easy to measure, when an employee doesn’t turn up to work the impact is clear, both to individual business owners and the wider economy. You can see the lost productivity, feel the impact on team morale, and quantify the exact costs of sick pay and employing extra cover.
Seeing Through the Cloud of High-Functioning Anxiety
Between good mental health and a diagnosable mental health disorder, there is a vast no-man’s land of different mental states. The nature of life means that we will inevitably experience dizzying happiness, desperate sadness and everything in between, including a certain amount of fear, worry and anxiety. In fact, it wouldn’t be normal to never experience negative emotions, but generally speaking we should feel pretty OK most of the time. This isn’t, however, the case for everyone.
Vedic Meditation: The Effortless Mind
In a world where even meditation has become super accessible via apps, Instagram, YouTube – somehow there remains a search for the authentic and personalised. Perhaps it’s something about our virtual world which is inspiring many to seek out Vedic meditation, an ancient, simple yet profound mantra based technique which is taught one to one, face to face.

Breaking the Link Between Low Self-Esteem and Self-Sabotage
Low self-esteem can turn our lives into a series of self-fulfilling prophecies. Lack of belief in ourselves — the feeling that we are unworthy, or destined to fail — often goes hand in hand with self-sabotage, and this link can be hard to break.
Overcoming Failure Mentality: Why Small Steps Are the Key to Lifestyle Change
The desire to improve ourselves and become happier in our lives is something the majority of us experience. We’re always promising ourselves that tomorrow is the day that we’re going to start eating better, exercising more, getting organized and working harder. It’s a perpetual to-do list which states that as soon as we get our act together and transform our habits, our lives will be changed. Unfortunately, it’s also this very attitude that ensures we never actually do it.
Strategic planning: Fact and fiction
What is strategic planning? A written strategic plan, when done well, is both the road and the map itself. Fact: Simply put, it is a tool an organization uses to clarify its vision of the future (The Map) and then lay down the clear, concrete actions needed to get there (The Road). Fiction: It is a theoretical, pie in the sky, feel-good company retreat that discusses vision without addressing the action necessary to get where you want to go.
