The Role of Wellness in the new working world

In our ongoing exploration of human nature, The Identity Series, one area that we’ve been fascinated by is the changing nature and perception of influence and influencers. Covid has changed much in this world, and we wanted to look beyond the Dubai disputes, and by speaking to influencers themselves and some influencer marketers, understand what was shifting for them and their audiences. From navigating brand rules to algorithms to maintaining authenticity, we hope this will provide an in depth perspective on the changing world of influencers.

Influencers: Behind the Lens 2021

As we know our opportunity for face to face research groups has, for the time being, been largely halted. So, are we still getting the best results from our alternative methods?

As any good researchers would do, we created an experiment to find out exactly what we are missing, or indeed gaining, by comparing the alternative methodologies alongside the more traditional face to face approach.

Have a watch of our webinar to find out the results of our experiment and how to use psychology theory to design better research.

We are full of ideas at The Nursery and love to share these. The world is a complex place and thoughts and themes always emerge which warrant further exploration beyond our project work. Being naturally inquisitive we can't help but want to know more. We therefore run several self-funded thought leadership research projects each year to explore aspects of human identity and behaviour. We encourage our clients to input into these and we of course share the findings widely. See below for our News, Views and larger Thought Leadership pieces.
