It also achieved outstanding results for its clients in sales, brand awareness and brand image- see testimonials below and at http://www.fb.ro/about-us/testimonials.html Funky Business was innovative not just in services but also in internal culture, being inspired by the best seller book with the same name written by the two Swedish authors- Kjell Nordstrom and Jonas Ridderstrale, it promoted an unconventional culture with strong values but few rules where employees were free to find their passion, create outside the box, contribute while at the same time being supported in their professional and personal journeys. Seven years after "Funky Business" inspired the name for my company, my team and I won the pitch for organizing the first conference in Bucharest of these two well known authors. Needless to say it was an incredible and very special moment sharing the company's story with the two people who had such an influence on its creation. At the European Customer Experience World in London (http://www.ecew.co.uk/), our “Butterfly effect” presentation received positive reviews from the audience scoring 78% in value, 84% in advocacy and 52% in experience.
