S8E153: Episode 153 - Andy Balzat: A-peeling Creativity

from The Common Creative · host Paul Fairweather and Chris Meredith

In this episode Paul and Chris sit down with Andy Balzat, founder of the (very a-peeling) Banana Life, a Brisbane-based consultancy that’s been bringing creativity and team building to the workplace for over a decade. They dive into how practical hands-on experiences like scavenger hunts and skateboard building can transform workplace dynamics and liberate creativity. Andy also shares why inclusiveness, and “a little bit of weird” are essential ingredients for high-performing teams. With a background in organisational psychology and a passion for adventure, Andy suggests that curiosity, craft and courage are the foundation stones for business success.
