A subgroup of educated urban working women in Scandinavia is leading us towards a new future of consumption, leadership and innovation.
They are the Renaissance people of our time. They make choices with a special passion, they challenge established norms and rules, they are constantly looking for new knowledge, improvement, change, renewal. They have both formal and symbolic power. They are overrepresented on some important measurable parameters: senior positions, high salaries, high purchasing power and great influence. But more interestingly, they share some special features. Gain knowledge about what characterizes them and how their involvement in your own company gives you increased competitiveness and a more sustainable future.
In a time when conversations about women as a key consumer group are growing louder, it’s clear there is a need for a closer, deeper, more nuanced approach. Based on more than 500 interviews, this book identifies a group of empowered women whose common trait is an engagement and a creativity in consumption that goes far beyond normal consumer practice.
As bona fide consumers who are also genuinely antagonistic about the idea of consumerism, these women stand out as remarkable drivers of change. They are leading us towards a new future of consumption, and creating new types of commercial desires, new types of consumer strategies and new types of markets. Read it to increase your understanding of contemporary consumer culture.
The presentations are all insight driven and designed to inform and inspire a human oriented approach to future strategies and innovations.
We tailor events for specific purposes, including round tables, strategy workshops, challenging conversations and micro conferences.

Passionistas can be silent influencers, due to their position in cultural and social life, but equally noteworthy is they can be silent innovators.
This talk tells the story of how these women are extensive innovators in their everyday life, constantly creating products, services and life hacks to meet their unmet needs - yet their innovation potential is often ignored, even by themselves. For businesses, this ignorance equals missed opportunities.
The increased purchasing power of women has stirred the world of brands and communication, but connecting to female communities is not easy. This talk focuses on how one of the most empowered female consumer groups, the Passionistas, talk, feel, choose and sometimes agonize about their behaviour.
We show how businesses and organisations can truly empathise with Passionistas and connect with them in a genuine and compelling way.
