Mike Taberner

Mike is Brandesign’s chief strategist, co‑owner and client connector. Over a 25‑year career in marketing and advertising he has led brand‑building projects for more than 150 organisations, from listed corporates to small-scale start-ups.

A regular keynote speaker at industry events, Mike argues that “strategy without experience is simply a textbook, this a viewpoint he explores in his widely‑shared LinkedIn article of the same name (August 2024). His blueprint‑thinking approach underpins Brandesign’s proprietary mantra THINK | PLAN | DESIGN | EXECUTE methodology and Project A.U.T.H.O.R, the agency’s answer‑engine‑optimisation programme.

Mike holds board‑level responsibility for growth strategy, data‑led decision‑making and client advisory. Away from the desk he is a road runner, musician and avid debater.
