Founded by best-selling authors, activists and social entrepreneurs Afdhel Aziz and Bobby Jones, we envision a world where all businesses thrive because they serve humanity and the planet.

To turn that vision into reality, we continue to pioneer new ways of turning Purpose Transformation into a driving force for business growth through Societal Impact. Through tried and tested proprietary Purpose frameworks, we help our clients unlock the full value of Purpose across their people, brands and entire organization.

Today, Conspiracy of Love is led by four partners at the heart of a global team of Co-Conspirators: strategists, designers, researchers, storytellers and activists, all committed to creating better businesses and a better world.

 

We are pioneers of Purpose Transformation, helping our clients drive business growth through Societal Impact.

Conspiracy of Love’s 3-Step Approach:

Discovering Purpose

Purpose is a journey, not a destination—and it begins with discovering who you are.

To build the foundation for growth and impact, we help organizations, divisions, brands, and individuals identify a clear Purpose. We do this by carefully analyzing the strategic ambitions and unique capabilities (“superpowers”) of the organization or brand on one side, and key external drivers across consumers, culture and society on the other side. The result is a powerful and inspiring Purpose statement that motivates and aligns all stakeholders and becomes a North Star for the organization or brand.

See how we discovered Akamai’s Purpose.

Designing Impact

Purpose is about picking your Swords and Shields.

Next, we bring a brand or company’s Purpose to life by creating tangible and highly innovative strategies, ideas and commitments that combine measurable Societal Impact and business impact. We combine what we call Moral Imagination with a deep understanding of societal issues, and depending on our client’s strategic priorities, we identify opportunities for Purpose activation and business impact through product innovation and consumer and employee engagement.

In doing so, we help a company distinguish between its Shields—table stakes issues that need to meet expectations—and its Sword, the social or environmental problem in the world it can fix profitably and rally its stakeholders around. And since Purpose needs to start from the inside out, our approach is designed to engage leaders and employees across the organization to build ownership, alignment and internal momentum from the beginning.

Driving Transformation

Purpose is about creating a movement, not a moment.

To unlock the full, long-term value of Purpose across all areas of the business, we help our clients leverage Purpose as a driver for organizational transformation. We do this by helping companies build a sustainable Purpose governance model and by Purpose-aligning three key areas of each organization for the long term:

• People and culture

• Business strategy and innovation

• All internal and external communication and storytelling
