061 Anthony Purkiss: Understanding the different behaviours of the team to increase connection, improve communication and results
Show Notes

In this week’s episode I speak to Anthony Purkiss, Co-Founder and Director of Make, a digital and creative agency, based in Farringdon.

Join us whilst we talk about using EDISC to understand the team and the power of being an early adopter and how that enables success.

Anthony also shares his thoughts about whether naivety is a form of bravery and courage and the frustration of wanting to speak up, but not doing so.

Key takeaways include:

  • Having a fixed mindset versus a growth mindset
  • Leveraging the different personality traits of your team
  • The value of freedom in the business world

In the nine years that Make has been in operation, Anthony and his team have attracted major clients such as IBM, Accor, Asana, Mollie's by Soho House, ClearPay, and De Beers.

Anthony believes in a flat company structure and fosters a culture where all creative ideas are valued.
