Fanny RK makes jokes.

She also does stand-up comedy. That’s not to say her strategy at companies like Shopify and Johns St has ever made anybody laugh. But what if it did? What if a strategist used techniques that make people laugh to make strategy?

We discuss:

  • A need for attention and immediacy
  • Strategy as The Thing Before The Thing
  • The role of uncontrollable laughter in ideas
  • Writing and writing jokes
  • Techniques strategists can use
