Brandon Curry

FOUNDER | MANAGING ADVISOR

I founded Work Arts after 20 years of diverse global experiences in industry. We hold a high view of work. We’re bold enough to regard what we give the majority of our lives to as our art. To appreciate professional performance as a creative act – with unique value.

With Work Arts, I serve as a creative advisor to management teams. We work in partnership with clients and their teams – outside-in and commercially minded – to build more effective and engaged organizations.

I work directly with each of our clients, taking a collaborative approach and draw on a resource pool of highly qualified, senior designers and practice leaders with deep business experience to deliver the highest value and most capable team for larger transformation projects.
