For Sai Tzy Horng, scrutiny and a subversive “flip the script” attitude to looking at things are crucial for brands who want to change the game.

We spoke with Sai about delving beyond the surface to understand widely experienced challenges, examining whether your brand is ready to take on certain topics, and why brands could stand to take themselves a little less seriously.
