Our Founder
Jayne Charneski brings more than 20 years of consumer insights and strategy expertise to our research engagements. As a former senior marketing executive at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), she developed insight-driven strategies for both CAA talent and major brands, while also leading research for The Cassandra Report, the leading authority on Millennial and Gen Z trends during her tenure. Prior to CAA, Jayne served as VP of Global Consumer Insights & Strategy at EMI Music and as a VP at Edison Research. She began her insights career as an analyst for the Voter News Service (VNS), a consortium of major U.S. television networks and AP conducting exit polling and election projections.
Jayne brings additional depth to her research practice through her training in authentic relating, circling, and non-violent communication. Her experience as a facilitator of transformative group experiences, along with her immersion in communities like Burning Man, offers a deep perspective on emerging cultural movements and human connection.
