A strategic communications agency with creative passion. We help you navigate change.
We are part of the Weber Shandwick global network.
We help navigate change by making communication meaningful and impactful. Our team consists of passionate and diverse communication professionals. We are all driven by meaningful work, long-term dedication, and responsibility. Our core values are quality, love, and courage. Our vision is to be a company that redefines communication and communication culture. We are known especially for strategic communications, crisis communications, and training. We focus on the health sector, infrastructure, and brands.
Our office has roots going back over 40 years, but Ahjo, our new creative hub, was born in the summer of 2016. We aim to transform communication and communication culture by clarifying values, increasing dialogue, and shifting leadership towards a values-driven approach. We do this primarily by building thought leadership for our clients.
Many organizations haven’t clarified their values or mission, which means their entire operation isn’t aligned with shared values or goals. When the significance of the organization’s work is lost, employees lack engagement, and at worst, customer experiences are inconsistent, and communication strategies aren’t sustainable.
Ahjo’s thought leadership model helps crystallize or clarify values, vision, mission, and the core idea that serves as a guiding principle for all communication and customer interactions, including customer service. Strategic and holistic communication is vital for the growth of any successful company. Through thought leadership, we aim to bring our clients’ values and meaning to the forefront of their operations, ensuring growth. By emphasizing values and meaning, an organization or individual can become a leading thought leader in their field—this is a position achieved through long-term strategic efforts.
Our own values are quality, love, and courage. We aren’t afraid to challenge ourselves, each other, or our clients to increase values-based actions, promote dialogue, and communicate more openly and boldly. Together, let’s change the world.
The Importance of Communication is Growing. According to leaders surveyed this year, the importance of communication will continue to grow. We see this too. Based on this, we have been preparing for the future direction with our board and team. Megatrends are shaping the work environment: work is increasingly hybrid, influence is increasingly digital, and strategies emphasize the need for a better tomorrow. Ahjo’s core business is consulting its clients in this new world.
Trainings focuses on coaching interaction and communication skills as well as mastering channels. Advisors provides strategic advice, media work, and crisis preparedness. Communications & content is our area of expertise in digital influence, including impactful content and campaigns.
We are increasingly focused on societal influence, international clients, and the health sector.
Our promise is: We ignite, you shine.
