A pioneer in the field of experiential branding and culture-building, Janine James founded The Moderns in 1992 to provide clients with a better framework for solving their challenges through foreword-thinking innovation. It started with a simple yet profound question: What would happen if the Bauhaus began today? Much like her counterparts of the early twentieth century, James knew that it was time to start thinking about purposeful, integrated, holistic solutions. Under her leadership, The Moderns has emerged as the premiere firm for multidisciplinary strategy and forward-thinking branding. Over the past decade, James' work has brought success to some of the world's most influential brands: American Express, Planned Parenthood, BASF, Sundance. James' work has also helped to transform the fate of smaller companies whose brand cultures have subsequently found a strategic vision and voice.

Strategies: How do we lead the environmental wave?
As corporations compete for unique environmental messages, a clear trend of leadership emerges. What separates the pioneers from the pack? In order to compete globally, companies must con- sider sustainability as part of an overall business strategy. Successful environmen- tal brands understand that a culture of innovation must inform environmental messaging. Janine James shares her industry experience and discusses the holistic methodology that has allowed her clients to defi ne the green marketplace.
