As Founder, CEO and creative brand therapist of Zing Your Brand, an off shoot of A New Brand Landscape & Co. Mary van de Wiel (aka Van) is better known as master brand provocateur when it comes to breaking the rules. Van brings her highly-individualistic Zing methodology to help entrepreneurial thinkers and business leaders reshape the vision of their brands and business so they can create an exhilarating and profitable business.

As a champion of brand storytelling, she defines, positions and revitalizes brands so they flourish, soar – and land a spot on the new landscape for the 21C. It’s a matter of survival in this tough market, and it’s the best way to show up, stand out, stake out your territory and increase your visibility.

A passionate speaker and advocate of shifting brand perspective, Van helps business leaders create brands that are bolder, more provocative, masterful and confident. What’s more, their organizations become more visible, profitable and productive.

Before launching A New Brand Landscape & Co. in 2007, Van established an award-winning independent branding and design agency with offices in New York and Sydney, Australia (1991-2005). Clients included Fortune 500 clients in the USA, China, Southeast Asia and Australia.
