Getting a story right is not so easy, but working with Ashraf showed us that it can be made easier, clearer and to the point.
Getting a story right is not so easy, but working with Ashraf showed us that it can be made easier, clearer and to the point. It was a good experience running through a workshop where we had to ensure that we were all understanding the same thing and going in the same direction. Ashraf helped us to find our “hero” and our “story”.

With his sharp analysis and vision Ashraf Ramzy supported us in the process to develop a clear, distinctive and relevant proposition to our target audience.
We were completely stuck at ABN AMRO Private Banking when we were searching for the ‘story’ behind the way we wanted to advise a specific clientele on some major financial consequences in their private affairs. We wanted a clear vision on what our added value as Private Bank exactly was. And, on how to communicate this internally and to the market. Because we were triggered by the way Ashraf Ramzy works, we asked him to help us. He challenged us to look further, beyond the limitations of the familiar and to think in scenarios, in possibilities. With his sharp analysis and vision, he supported us in the process to develop a clear, distinctive and relevant proposition to our target audience. This formed the basis on which developed our marketing and communication strategy.

Ashraf goes above and beyond what one can expect from a business partner. The in-market results show that his cornerstone strategic rebranding advise was spot-on. I would recommend teaming up with Ashraf at any time!
Ashraf is one of those exceptional people that you meet in life. He goes above and beyond what one can expect from a business partner. Ashraf was an anchor person in the conception of the Smiths-to-Lay’s rebranding strategy for Smiths Food Group back in 2001. Always stepping back and looking at the bigger (consumer) picture and applying lateral thinking based on vast experience and knowledge of many industries, brands, and market models he was always in search for what “story” could help deliver the desired business impact. The in-market results (then, and to date) show that his cornerstone strategic rebranding advise was spot-on. When in search for a person that can truly work through your “what-business-am-I-in?”-question (… as company, as brand, or as product), as well as any desired future mission you want to accomplish, I would recommend teaming up with Ashraf at any time!

In a series of workshops Ashraf Ramzy brought, with much inspiration, the success story of Hollywood to the practice in RTL in Hilversum.
Storytelling is the foundation of any TV program, from scripted drama to real life soap. So basic, so beautiful, so challenging, but oh so difficult. In a time when the lure of technological effects is greater than ever, a good story is worth more than a thousand Computer Generated Images. In a series of workshops Ashraf Ramzy brought, with much inspiration, the success story of Hollywood to the practice in RTL in Hilversum. To create a good TV program, you need a good story. Content is King, Storytelling Rules.

What is the link between strategy and story? That was the first question that I asked after meeting with Ashraf Ramzy.
For me the connection is in leadership: a leader has the responsibility to both set the direction and to convey it. The ancient laws of stories offer very contemporary insights. The hero, the villain, the holy grail all have their place in a good story as well as in a sound strategy. Ashraf Ramzy has taken the Boertien group back to its core story. In addition to that story, one requires a good storyteller. Our management team therefore underwent media training, where the story was very firmly tested. It abundantly passed the test!
