About Us

Creative Intelligence

What do we mean by creative intelligence (CQ)?

Our goal is to add Creative Intelligence to everything we do by always asking ourselves:

Are we thinking without boundaries? [ A + B + C]
Are we challenging ourselves and you, our clients?
Is the solution purposeful?
Are we simplifying the complicated?
Can we say, 'I never thought about it that way?'

This is the difference we add.

Get your employee game face on
The average 21-year-old has spent 2,000 to 3,000 hours reading books and more than three times that playing video games. That makes the average Millennial very close to being a gaming expert! So, why should this matter? […]
Engage your stakeholders with annual reports
‘Failing to plan is planning to fail’. The key to good annual reports is in the planning. With icandi CQ as your partner, you are guaranteed a well-planned annual report that is successfully implemented every time. […]
Making headlines with employee publications
Are employee magazines, newsletters and publications still relevant? In our experience, yes! They provide a great channel for communicators. […]

Their work is always creative and of excellent quality. They are a dedicated team and timeline driven.
