In a culture that rewards speed and volume, intention is a countercultural act.

Intentional helps large brands and complex organizations build coherence at scale — clarifying what they stand for, how they communicate and how they are understood in the market.

Strategy for the unapologetically ambitious

Commercial

Brand strategy for companies at an inflection point.

For consumer companies navigating an inflection point, a rebrand, a new category, a lost edge or a growth plateau. We build the strategic foundation: brand architecture, positioning, narrative and the vocabulary that makes a brand relevant to the people it most needs to reach.

Civic & Political

For candidates, campaigns, and civic institutions.

For candidates, campaigns, advocacy organizations and civic institutions navigating high-stakes public moments. We build the strategic communications foundation, narrative architecture and message strategy that makes an agenda legible to communities and electorates.

Reputation

For executives and public-facing professionals.

For executives, candidates, and public-facing professionals who need to own their narrative before someone else defines it for them. We help you clarify who you are, what you stand for and how that translates into a presence that's legible, consistent and distinct.

Who We Are

Founder and Principal

Jenn Chiang

Jenn Chiang helps large, complex organizations get coherent: figuring out what they stand for and using that clarity to shift behavior, win markets and shape how they're understood. She uses communications as a system, building alignment that holds under pressure and over time.

Twenty years of work at scale: Fortune 1 reputation transformations, venture-backed startups, culture-defining campaigns recognized at Cannes and in the Smithsonian collection. The range spans strategy, product development and institutional communications, producing a systems view most specialists working in one lane don't have.

From repositioning Walmart during one of the most consequential periods in its history to building a women's leadership platform adopted by 300+ companies, the work has driven growth, built movements and changed the trajectory of major institutions.

She built her career without a traditional degree, which trained her to rely on pattern recognition, customer empathy and relentless learning over pedigree. That outsider lens keeps her connected to how real people live, think and make decisions — and to the cultural texture that often gets lost at scale.

She partners with leaders navigating transformation where the stakes are high, the complexity is genuine and the work has to deliver.
