Brand and reputation
Between the announcements and the milestones sits the bigger question of who you’re and why you matter. We build the brand, the narrative and the thought leadership that shape how the industry, future recruits and the public see you.

The problem
Most organizations communicate in projects and announcements, one milestone at a time. But the audiences that matter form their view in the gaps between. Who is this company. Can I trust it. Would I work there. Would I back it. Those judgments get made whether or not you’re shaping them.
In energy and industry the stakes run higher, because license to operate, the talent pipeline and the public mood are all in play at once, and all of them turn on reputation. A strong one opens doors before you walk through them. A weak or absent one gets written by other people.
Reputation is also slow. It compounds over years of consistent signals and unravels in a single inconsistent one, which is why it can’t be left to the next press release to handle by accident.
How we help
We start with the truth of the organization. What you actually stand for, what you do best, and why it matters now. Then we build the brand and the stories that carry it consistently, everywhere people meet you.
That might be a brand strategy and identity, a corporate film, a thought-leadership platform, an employer-brand campaign or a flagship report. Held together so it adds up to one coherent impression rather than ten disconnected ones.
And it has to be earned to last. We build on what is real, because borrowed claims come apart under questioning.
What it can involve

Reputation campaigns.
Shifting how a specific audience sees you, on purpose.
Selected work
Why Myriad
We build reputation from the truth of an organization, not a wish list, because the first hard question finds the gap. For clients like ExxonMobil we’ve turned what a company is into work people remember. Strategy to find the real story, craft to make it land, both in one place.
Common questions
We’re in a sector people have strong opinions about. Can you handle that?
+
We work in industries under constant scrutiny, and we build reputation on substance because the audience is sceptical.
Can you do brand strategy, or just the films?
+
Both. We work from the strategy out, so the films, reports and campaigns all say the same coherent thing.
Can you help with employer brand and recruitment?
+
In a tight talent market, the case for joining you is one of the biggest reputation jobs there is, and we build it.
How long does brand work take?
+
Strategy and identity typically run a few months; a full reputation shift is measured in years. We will tell you honestly which one you're asking for.
Can you refresh an existing brand rather than start again?
+
Often the truth of the organization is right and the expression has drifted. We sharpen what is there before we recommend replacing it.
