The Matterverse is one of those ideas that's as simple as it is vast — a play on the brand purpose and the idea of a connected space where colleagues share how they're making an impact.
I worked with Deloitte on engaging their people with their brand purpose, 'Making it Matter' — helping colleagues draw a line between the organisation's overall purpose and their own individual contribution.
Not to get swept up in the metaverse hype, a second idea grounded the campaign in reality. Inspired by blue plaques, MatterPoints could be scanned to open a story of a local colleague's contribution — putting real people and real places at the centre.
Ideas stretched further still: a hypothetical cryptocurrency called MAT, whose value depended on colleagues living the purpose and demonstrating behaviours that matter — adding a gamified layer to the conversation.
Who better to talk to in the Matterverse than the UK CEO himself — in avatar form?
"Stretch thinking into a future space — then bring it back to what your contribution will be."
The potential space for dialogue and connection needn't be an actual 3D virtual world — but somewhere for colleagues to share stories and champion each other from across the network. The concept was designed to stretch, while staying rooted in something real.
