Businesses need brands. Brands need creativity. Creativity needs leadership.

The Exchange is a great way to meet talented creatives in small and huge organisations who share their hard earned experiences with a smile. I’ve always learned something new from them.

I think you can feel quite on your own and you shouldn’t underestimate the power of feeling like you’re part of a community. Inside Out® can really facilitate that idea of radical collaboration and they’ve got so many great experts you can tap into and talk to – so get involved!

Imogen Almond

Head of Creative, Innocent Drinks

I would say definitely give the Inside Out® Community a shot. Because you don’t realise the support until you get it. When you become part of it, when you see the information that you get, that’s when you realize that it was a good decision.

Sudarshan Waghmare

Global Head of Brand & Creative, Bitpanda

So good to have a forum that recognises and celebrates in-house creative teams. The Exchange sessions are a particular highlight and I love hearing what this group of talented creative leaders have been up to recently and the discussions around common themes in what has become quite a community.

James Turner


Partner Creative Lead, Waitrose and Partners

The whole team were thrilled to have won three awards, as is the rest of the organisation. Particularly the judges award, the comments we had from the judges was amazing.

Sara Chew


Creative Lead, British Red Cross

In a lot of companies, creative leadership is usually just one or two people, so you get that peer network by being part of the Inside Out® Community. It’s a very strong community feel, you get practical advice and encouragement when you’re trying to figure something out.”

Harshil Varsani

Brand & Creative Director, Credability

It’s really built my confidence and ambition as well. I was enjoying the inspiration and admiring other people’s work, and it built up my confidence to enter the awards.
We won – which was amazing for our team and we should shout about that!

Emily Hawkerr

Creative Lead, Save the Children UK

Since joining Inside Out, I’ve been warmly welcomed into a community where passion and talent in design unite us. Here, whether it’s seeking advice on design tools, critiquing projects, or problem-solving, the community is always ready to lend a helping hand. The abundance of support, from networking opportunities to workshops with industry leaders, has provided me with invaluable inspiration and growth in my creative journey.

Savvas Pavlou

The Inside Out® community is a creative leader’s secret sauce! It has been truly invaluable for me and I am able to collaborate, share ideas and receive key advice which has helped me in my leadership journey!

Marilyn Yost


Head of Design, Savills

A bunch of super smart and interesting in-house leaders providing each other with peer to peer support, the conversation and advice is second to none. I have seen the immediate added value the sessions bring to me, and subsequently my team. I am so happy to have discovered this wonderful community.

Emma Baines

Global Head of Creative

Inside Out® is special. It’s that most valuable of things: a knowledge store and support group rolled into one. I love being connected to other in-house creative leaders and being able to tap into their collective experience any time I need it. I only wish it had been around when I first became a head!

Michael Storey

Creative Consultant and Inside Out Community Advisor

The willingness of members to share their information and how they’ve approached similar challenges that I’m going through has been super useful. To be able to talk to people that are going through it has been brilliant.

Sam Otterspoor

Senior Brand Designer & Experience Manager, Captify

Being part of the Inside Out® Community has really broadened my network and my understanding of the nature of the challenges that I have because they’re shared. It’s a great confidence booster to know that you’re not the only one with these challenges.
