EMPATHY CLARITY

12 factors

1. Consensus drives effect. Effect is determined by goal fulfillment, and in order to set useful/relevant goals, the parties in a collaboration must equally understand the job to be done.

Dashboard

CoRATE is a Software as a Service platform. The parties own the license to the tool and all the collected data. Our contribution is to continuously update the software and its features with valuable visualizations, gaining collective insights to enhance your creative collaboration.

Radar chart. The further the radar extends from the center, the higher the average rating for that specific subcategory. By comparing the shape and length of the radars for each party in the collaboration, insights can be gained into how to prioritize improvements.

Four-field Venn. Each quadrant represents a combination of high or low scores by participants in the collaboration. By analyzing the position and size of each quadrant, insights can be gained into which area will generate the most positive impact, post-improvements, to achieve better conditions for creative quality.

Scatter diagram. Average clarity is determined by the levels of perceived Consensus and Flow in the collaboration. Empathy examines how much Trust and Courage the collaboration enjoys. Having a joint appreciation of this can lead to coherent actions towards better creative quality.

Max.diff. By examining the relative importance all 12 aspects of collaboration for both clients and agencies, you can pinpoint areas where the parties differ or align in their perception. This enables you to prioritize efforts in addressing any disparities and leveraging areas of agreement to enhance collaboration.

ChatGPT is integrated in CoRATE, enabling users to search within the response data for root causes or to find ideas for solutions. Negotiations with publishers to add a Knowledge Base  will begin in 2024.

Coach my brain, Daniel Collin, Jessica Collin

Efter decennier av erfarenhet i den lika inspirerande som föränderliga och högintensiva kommunikationsbranschen uppenbarade sig för oss en ännu större fascination - om den mänskliga hjärnan och för människors förmågor till utveckling. Det ledde till att vi startade vårt företag som fokuserar på att sprida insikter samt ge verktyg och stöd för hållbar förändring. Vår vision är att demokratisera mental styrka; för att mentalt starka människor bygger starka organisationer och ett starkt, välmående samhälle. Och den visionen gifter sig perfekt med CoRATE vars hela syfte är att identifiera den mellanmänskliga potentialen och förbättringsområden inom företag samt i samarbeten företag emellan. Vi har förkovrat oss om hjärnan, mental hälsa samt olika träningsmetoder och här finns vår passion - att hjälpa individer och företag att utvecklas, må bra och prestera bättre. Med erfarenhet inom ledarskap, kommunikation, marknadsföring, försäljning och om hjärnans utveckling erbjuder vi metoder och verktyg för att rita kartan och hitta vägen mot dina mål och drömmar. Vår drivkraft är tron på människors potential. Vi är intresserade av vem du är och vem du vill bli, för att kunna hjälpa dig att hitta vägen dit. Genom att utgå från hur hjärnan fungerar, delar vi insikter om fascinerande sätt att öka den mentala förmågan och kapaciteten. Med licenser som Mental tränare, ICC Coach, Life Kinetik-tränare och mer, har vi sedan 2018 tränat hundratals personer, föreläst för över 1000 och coachat allt från entreprenörer till professionella idrottare. Och vi älskar det!

Christina Knight, Executive Creative director & Founder, Mad Women Academy

I have worked in the ad industry since the mid-80’s and ever since been concerned about the industry’s lack of diversity. I founded ’Mad Women Academy’ to offer online training in DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging); business critical know-how for anyone who wants to understand and represent different target groups for real and build sustainable, profitable brands, as well as well-functioning collaborations and work places. CoRATE shines the light precisely on what is needed to reach these goals and is therefore a perfect partner of Mad Women Academy.

Josefine Billström Raasakka, marketing & digital transformation advisor, founder The Curious Advisor,

I have been working as a marketing professional for over 16 years. My career started in advertising where I spent 10 years as a strategist. In 2017 I made the leap into tech and spent 6 years at Meta (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Threads) as a creative strategist. One thing that became very evident over the last couple of years is that so many brands, agencies and companies want and need to transform with the help of technology but find it both daunting and overwhelming. My biggest learning and belief is that transformation happens when you start small – by testing that one new technology, work with that one new talent or do just one project different. But the biggest key to transformation lies in having a safe environment where you are allowed to experiment and most importantly fail. I believe that CoRATE clearly identifies potential gaps and opportunities to create an environment of transformation and therefore see it as the perfect tool to kick off any transformation project with.
