Hello, my name is Dan, thanks for visiting. I’ve created this page as a place to summarise my work across what is now a few different roles and organisations, and in particular to host information on my independent consultancy & writing, as I’ve started to do more of both.
Over the last decade I have worked with campaigns, coalitions, foundations and political parties in the UK and globally to develop strategies for broadening the appeal of alternative social and economic propositions, including seven years leading digital mobilisation agency Small Axe.
My current main roles are Executive Director at non-profit research body the Future Narratives Lab, and Strategy Director at economic development co-operative Stir to Action (more details on both below).
As you will see, the common themes across my work and interests are strategic communications, cultural psychology, narrative and identity – and how all of these can be applied practically to the challenge of improving politics and society.
Before all this, I grew up in in Mid Wales, and spent 10 years in Sheffield before moving down to London to study at the Institute of Social Psychology at LSE. If you’d like to discuss any of the above or a potential collaboration, you can get in touch through the form at the bottom of this page.
