Working with axle impact studio was a game-changer for us. Their community-focused research helped us find and connect with our actual stakeholders and gave us practical strategies we could actually use.

Axle understands that people power change - leveraging their knowledge of strategic partnerships not only helped us activate in record time during Super Bowl LVII, but in a meaningful way to draw connections between sports, mental health and community impact.

I liked the re-framing of clients as partners, where we bring forth our expetise while drawing out their own insights and strengths to then co-create sustainable solutions. I think this helps strike the balance I've sought in these relationships. I want to design with resilience in mind. I now feel empowered to do so.
