My Brand Academy for Businesses
Every organisation has a story. So does every founder, leader and employee who shapes its future.
At My Brand Academy, we combine Identity Intelligence, world-class storytelling expertise and AI-enabled tools to help businesses define what makes them distinctive, develop their leaders' personal brands and empower their people to communicate with clarity, confidence and purpose.
Your people. Your identity. Your story. Your advantage.
HOW WE HELP BUSINESSES
From defining a company's identity to developing its leaders and empowering its people, we bring world-class storytelling expertise and Identity Intelligence into organisations of every size.
Every strong business needs a clear sense of identity and direction. Our Corporate Identity Compass helps founders, businesses and leadership teams clarify what makes them distinctive, articulate their story and align their positioning with where they want to go.
Great leadership is about more than what you know. It's how you communicate it. We help leaders develop their personal brand, articulate their ideas and turn their experiences into compelling stories that inspire trust, alignment and action.
Your people can be your most credible brand ambassadors. LAUNCHPAD, with Marc Maley and Grace Andrews helps organisations build authentic employee advocacy by giving their teams the confidence, skills and tools to share their expertise and stories.
Bring a fresh perspective to your organisation. From executive sessions to company-wide talks, we explore Identity Intelligence, personal branding and the power of storytelling to help people think differently about who they are and what they can become.
Different challenges. Different ambitions. One connected approach to identity, people and growth.
THE MY BRAND ACADEMY DIFFERENCE
For more than 20 years, our founder has helped shape storytelling and brand strategies connected to some of the world's most recognisable entertainment franchises and global organisations.
Today, My Brand Academy brings that experience together with Identity Intelligence and AI-enabled technology to help businesses develop their identity, strengthen their leaders' personal brands and empower their people.
Drawing on experience across entertainment, global brands and leadership, we help organisations communicate stories that create meaning, connection and action.
Our Identity Intelligence methodology starts with understanding what makes a business and its people distinctive, before deciding how to communicate it.
We work with your founders, leaders and existing teams, equipping them with the thinking, tools and confidence to build their own stories and personal brands.
We don't just help businesses tell better stories. We help the people behind them become better storytellers.
From the box office to the boardroom.

The story behind the system
For more than two decades, I have worked across entertainment, brands and leadership, helping shape stories for globally recognised franchises, organisations and people.
Again and again, I saw the same pattern.
The people with the greatest potential were not always the people who were most clearly understood.
They had experience, ability and ambition. What they often lacked was a way to interpret their story and express it with clarity.
That insight became the foundation of My Brand Academy and Identity Intelligence.
Your Story Is Your Strategy.
Identity Intelligence brings together storytelling, personal branding, professional experience and research to help people understand who they are, so they can intentionally build who they become.
