Our June speaker is Kyle O'Brien Caird, presenting:
Behind the Brand: How Ideas Get Made
Every project, product, brand, and movement begins with an idea. But what happens between the initial spark and the finished result?
In this month's Breakfast Club, we'll explore how ideas evolve through collaboration, creativity, feedback, and persistence. Drawing from experiences spanning freelance work, startups, community initiatives, and global creative leadership, Kyle will share stories and lessons from a career spent helping bring ideas to life.
This session will be less about polished answers and more about the real-world process behind creative work: where ideas come from, how they gain momentum, what gets in the way, and what it takes to turn a concept into something meaningful.
Expect an engaging conversation filled with stories, lessons learned, and practical insights that apply whether you're building a business, leading a team, launching a project, or simply trying to bring a good idea into the world.
