We help organizations and individuals communicate with clarity and purpose to drive results.

Communication is more than information. It's a powerful driver of social and behavioural change—shaping how people think, feel, and act.

At Sage + Spark, we use strategic, human-centred communication to inspire action, build trust, and spark real-world impact.

For organizations, we specialize in facilitation, in-person and online learning, and campaign development—rooted in Social and Behaviour Change Communication principles. 

For individuals and teams, we specialize in tailored coaching and workshops that shape standout communicators—developing confident public speaking, engaging presentations, and compelling writing.

Sage + Spark doesn’t do off-the-shelf solutions. Our work is evidence-based, participatory, and fuelled by curiosity—because meaningful communication demands intention, not convention.

The Spark

We bring the fun and the unexpected, drawing from theatre, experiential learning, and game-based approaches to turn communications into energizing, interactive experiences.

We’ve delivered this work in 50+ countries, sparking engagement that sticks.
