Our Services
We present our poems in both an electronic and physical form
An electronic poem can be placed on a company website, whilst a physical representation of the poem can be displayed as a sculpture or plaque, or in another form. One of the real benefits of the physical form is that people can interact with the poem in situ and enjoy its’ beauty.
Company Achievements
The team at Poetry for Pioneers writes poetry for companies that encapsulates the varying aspects of any changes. These may represent the challenging decisions to decrease employees, or more positive developments of expansion.
We believe that a poetic connection in a company can be motivating. A company’s environment can be ever-changing so our aim is to capture a point-in-time, which can be reflected on in the future. This is the time to see the true value of your company through a poem.
ESG
An Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Statement encapsulates how organisations can go beyond today to create a vision for tomorrow. Poetry for Pioneers can partner with you to build a pathway to embed ESG into your company. We do this by understanding your values and presenting them into a bespoke, purposeful ESG Statement which can be a part of not only your future, but for generations to come. Poetry for Pioneers can bring your ESG alive.
Reignite
Poetry for Pioneers also writes poetry for companies who wish to express their continued gratitude and support to their suppliers and partners. Sometimes the original intentions of the arrangement can get buried in the busyness of the present. Poetry for Pioneers creates the opportunity for companies to revisit and reignite their plans and dreams with their suppliers and partners, again.
Mergers
A merger situation, the formal documentation, such as legal, financial and others, are required to establish the merger. Poetry for Pioneers can support this necessary approach by creating a less formal ‘handshake’ which we believe is equally as important. We are here to assist in creating a discourse of strategic friendship that supports the underlying reasons for the merger.
Acquisitions
In an acquisition situation it can be both reserved, and also exciting. Poetry for Pioneers are here to straddle these two worlds; cushion any fall-outs, soften the toughness, create the compassion and highlight the vision. It’s creating a vision for tomorrow.
Restructuring
Restructuring a company can be challenging as a new work environment is created. Ongoing commitment, negotiation and communication is often required. It is also important for management to continually reassure their teams to keep morale high. Poetry for Pioneers are here to work with you to help communicate these changes in a planned, meaningful way. Our approach may require a one-off poem, or several. It is about keeping communication open and morale high.
Workshops
Poetry for Pioneers creates a workshop space where staff can construct their own poem with our support. In a workshop situation the staff tell us what to write. It’s a collective movement and builds a very powerful poem or statement for the future.
Conferences
Poetry for Pioneers creates a bespoke poem for the opening and/or closing of conferences. The poem can be read out live, pre-recorded by Poetry for Pioneer’s staff, a leading artist, or by the client and their nominated spokesperson.
Unique Delivery Mediums
A bespoke poem will be created by the Poetry for Pioneer’s team to reflect the specified brief and can be provided in a range of formats, such as: in soft copy; depicted in an art form; or involve live or filmed delivery of the poem by Poetry for Pioneer’s staff, or the Client or their Nominee, or by a Nominated Celebrity.
Superyachts
Poetry for Pioneers writes poetry for Superyacht owners by creating an opportunity to acquire a personalised poem that can become a feature on their Superyacht.
The poem can depict the journey of acquiring the Superyacht; from the original idea, to engaging highly skilled professionals, and the different stages undertaken to realise their vision. Poetry for Pioneers encapsulates the ongoing commitment and passion required to realise this vision.
Poetry for Pioneers can include future aspirations for the Superyacht, such as the journeys that lay ahead and who may join in the adventure.
Luxury Homes
Poetry for Pioneers creates the opportunity for luxury homeowners to acquire their own personalised poem which may become a feature in their home.
A home can be a wonderful, fulfilling, and comfortable sanctuary: a place for celebrations and nurturing. Poetry for Pioneers aims to capture these feelings and the story behind why they choose their luxury home. This is a time when a homeowner can share their personal vision.
Poetry for Pioneers can weave cherished memories and future dreams for the homeowner, so they can reflect on their personal achievements with those they hold dear.
International Diplomacy
Poetry for Pioneers can deliver real benefits in international diplomacy through poems that capture the desired future of a nation.
Countries wishing to create a poetic connection with other countries can engage with each other across geopolitical boundaries which could be diplomatically and financially rewarding. These connections could create a foundation to build new partnerships, and deliver real outcomes.
The team at Poetry for Pioneers acknowledges that during these unprecedented times there has been a fundamental shift in the way we work, educate, live, travel and communicate. A poem can inspire leaders during these times and provide a foundation for new initiatives, and for countries to work together, now and into the future.
