Bringing together the best of journalism, strategy, product, and design to help organizations tell their own stories, build trust, and authentically connect with their communities and constituents
Godfrey Dadich Partners, Ghost Note, and Upstatement are pioneering The New Editorial, recognizing that we’re at an inflection point: The old models of communication and connection no longer work. In increasingly complex times, organizations must build their own platforms and communities directly, sharing their perspectives and values with honesty, integrity, and inclusivity.
This new approach requires courage and new ways of thinking—but it is an imperative. The vast majority of people now expect brands to articulate their belief systems clearly and participate meaningfully in the global exchange of ideas. Brands have the ability to speak—publish, broadcast, engage—with the quality, creativity, and intellectual vibrancy that were once the exclusive domain of the Fourth Estate.
This is The New Editorial. Own your truth. Tell your story.
Stories establish authority. The most authentic and effective way a brand can express itself to the world—its purpose, its people, its aspirations—is through storytelling.
