Virtual Creative Session with Paul Kemp-Robertson: Ask Heretical Questions

Ask Heretical Questions

Human beings are hardwired to hate uncertainty and avoid risk. It’s why our ancestors ran away from hot lava and angry mammoths. It’s also why so many modern-day marketers reject brave, disruptive ideas. Creativity, by definition, is novel and divergent. And this is what can scare clients – even though they may not know it. Because businesses love certainty and treat logic like a comfort blanket. Businesses focus on answers, not questions. But we believe that in uncertain times, brands should flip that mindset and question everything, even the staunchest beliefs and practices. Heretical questions are hard, and don’t lead to fun conversations. But in this session, Paul explains why these are the interrogations that could protect your business by creating ideas your rivals wouldn’t dare to even think about.
