Hello. This is Intersee, by me,
.This space is home to a growing body of thought that’s concerned with how organisations work — and how they can work better.
What you’ll find here
The ideas here lie broadly at the intersection of three themes:
Culture: The shared ways of knowing, being, and belonging that shape everyday organisational life, and determine what’s possible within and because of an organisation.
Communication: How organisations create shared meaning through narratives that build common understanding, allowing people to do more together than they could alone.
Change: How organisations can act as agents of social change by seeding bold ideas in culture — transforming both the world around them and the people within them.
Who’s this for?
This work speaks to three primary audiences:
People in leadership roles tasked with the explicit responsibility of leading an organisation, a function, or an initiative. They set vision, provide direction, and hold the tension between short-term demands and long-term transformation.
People leading through earned trust rather than formal authority. They influence people’s behaviour in seemingly small but significant ways that ripple outward, often without realising how profoundly they’re shaping the organisational DNA.
People who expect to be led well: They care deeply about the environments they inhabit, and want to be able to make sense of their own experience (why something feels dysfunctional). They expect effective leadership that values their need for coherence, significance, and purpose.
You’ll likely see yourself in more than one of these categories — these are fluid, overlapping roles we move between throughout our organisational lives. I’ve spelled these out simply to give you a mental model of the readers I hold implicit in my mind when developing these ideas.
Cadence and format
Intersee isn’t a single newsletter but a body of ideas expressed through different “sections” — each with its own newsletter, podcast, focus, and rhythm. These distinct streams flow together to form a broader body of thought.
One of these sections is Vectors — short essays on culture, communications, and change. Each of these pieces is typically 600-800 words, published weekly.
You’ll be able to find these different sections in the navigation bar as and when they come up, and can manage your subscription settings for each newsletter here.
