Mark Simmonds’s Expertise I want to help individuals reach their potential in two ways. Firstly, by giving them the confidence to believe they REALLY are creative - it's just a question of HOW. And secondly, by helping people balance their ambition with their anxiety in the workplace. The latter doesn't need to get in the way of the former! CREATIVITY first. I'm an experienced marketing capability consultant/trainer who has worked in the areas of insight, innovation and creativity for the last 27 years. Clients have included Unilever, HSBC, GlaxoSmithKline, Pernod Ricard, Tesco, O2, Philips and the Red Cross. In 2020, in partnership with my wife, Mel, we launched GENIUS YOU, a company that helps individuals and teams unleash their creative potential. We operate in an Ocean's Eleven kind of way, connecting up with top class people from across the globe. They're all experts in their own fields, all interested in creativity and innovation, all keen to collaborate on fun projects, working with great clients! My early career was spent in brand management with Unilever. I co-founded Brand Learning, a marketing capability agency, in 2000 with Mhairi McEwan and Andy Bird. And in 2008, I co-founded Creative Creatures with Hanne Kristiansen, an exciting and powerful capability tool that maximised the creative potential of both people and processes. Now for MENTAL HEALTH, my side hustle!! In 2018, I published my first book called "Breakdown and Repair". This tells the story of two mental health episodes in my life. Firstly, as a sufferer, when I experienced a mental breakdown in 2001, brought on by stress at work. And secondly, as a carer for my daughter, Emily, who suffered from anorexia nervosa from 2012 to 2018. My long term vision is to help de-stigmatise mental health in the workplace. In March 2022, I had my second book published called 'Beat Stress At Work'. I love my day job and my 'side hustle'! In both cases, they give me the chance to bring out the best in people.
