Hi, I’m Allan. I'm a Communications Consultant with a passion for behavioural science.
I love getting to know what motivates people and how we can use those insights to help create positive experiences for the people we communicate with.
What I’d like to be known for
I’m a people person and I’d like to be known for bringing a spark of positivity and curiosity to the work I do. Asking those searching questions – building a deeper understanding of the what and the why of everything we’re doing. So that means questions, lots of listening and empathy, and understanding everyone’s needs before looking to create solutions that meet the brief and improve the user experience.
My favourite projects to work on
My motivation is always to help people and push things forward. So any kind of change project excites me – ones that we can really get stuck in to, shape strategy, and know we’re going to help make a difference to the people we’re communicating with.
The thing I can’t live without
The great outdoors! (And music!)
Why I joined like minds
like minds is unique and it’s caring. It encourages creativity and it’s an agency that puts people first. Whether that’s us as employees, the clients we’re working with, or the audiences we’re communicating with – prioritising people is key to success in everything like minds does. And it’s why I wanted to work here!
If I wasn’t doing this, I’d be...
Indulging my sense of wanderlust!
I’m currently...
Wondering if things are going to get better for my beloved Stirling Albion (yes, this is evergreen content).
Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.
