BRINGING LEADERSHIP IS UPSIDE DOWN TO LIFE IN 2014
The 2014 Leadership Is Upside Down Book Launch was conceived as an immersive exhibition and community activation, bringing together more than 100 corporate clients, industry professionals and university contacts. I led the creative direction and production, shaping the experience from initial concept through to event delivery.
Rather than creating a traditional book launch, we brought the ideas behind the book into the physical environment through art, design, play and participation, creating an experience that encouraged curiosity, conversation and connection.
My role spanned the full event lifecycle:
Creative Direction & Experience Design:
Led the creative vision from concept through to delivery, translating the themes of the book into an immersive exhibition and community experience.

Recommendation
Relmi was one of the driving forces behind a significant Sydney based conference and event that I was involved in. From day one it was very clear to see that Relmi is highly creative and versatile. She has the ability to visualise an opportunity and put the right creative around it to make it commercial. I would strongly recommend Relmi for any project requiring high level creative skills and a driven and organised visionary thinker.
