GOOD WORK WITH is Gin and Justin - we believe that working together is better.It's not a revolutionary idea - perhaps someone has already thought of it.But across our careers we’ve often seen great work compromised, opportunities missed and ambitions not realised – by politics, personalities, power, money and history, or all of the above.We are interested in connection and collaboration. We want to explore what is working and what could work in the future to help us all cut through the trade-offs and the settling for less.We want to understand, share and influence what will genuinely help great people, groups, organisations and communities to do more, better, together.
