☖ CEO NEMESIS - Helping brands find clarity.

We’re not your typical branding agency and we never mean to be. We are at the intersection between agency and team members.

We believe in branding done differently. It's about aligning, inspiring, and federating people around a shared vision, not just slapping on a new logo.

We work side-by-side with our clients to unlock the power of their brand. We dig deep to unearth purpose and make it visible.

☗ Hiring strategists, designers, and copywriters, all of whom have one thing in common: designing in a meaningful way. 

✺ Working in radical immersion from our client's habitat

✎ Always eager to connect in a more informal way at sydney@nemesis.studio

Helping brands find clarity as CEO of Nemesis

Most organisations don’t fail because of bad strategy.
They fail in the gaps.

The gap between what is written in decks and the values.
The gap between what is said in meetings and town halls.
And the biggest one: the gap between what is lived every single day.

Culture doesn’t break loudly.
It erodes quietly, in those inconsistencies people feel but rarely name.

When values are framed on walls but ignored in decisions.
When purpose is repeated in speeches but absent in behaviour.
When strategy sounds inspiring but feels disconnected on the ground.

Closing those gaps is leadership work.
It’s uncomfortable, demanding, and deeply human.

At Nemesis, we believe alignment is not about communication.
It’s about coherence.

What you write should guide what you say.
What you say should shape what you do.
And what you do should make people believe.

Because people don’t follow words.
They follow what is lived.

#Leadership #Culture #Alignment

I am building a world.
Not by chance, by design.

A world where meaning comes first.
Where choices are intentional.
Where what we build reflects what we believe.

Meaning isn’t a slogan.
It’s an architecture.

And I choose to design it.

#MeaningByDesign #Leadership #Culture

Nemesis is proud to sponsor ''La nuit des Entrepreneurs inspirants''.

First stop: Liège.

A city of grit, ideas and straight-talking entrepreneurs.
The kind of place where things actually get built.

Who knows…
maybe my successor is already a Liégeois 😉

See you in Liège.

#Nemesis #Entrepreneurship #Leadership

Surround yourself with entrepreneurs.
With do-ers.
With makers.
With shapers.

People who execute.
People who challenge.
People who turn ideas into reality.

Energy is contagious.
So is ambition.

Choose your circle wisely.
It shapes how far you’ll go.

#Entrepreneurship #Leadership #Mindset

We’re preparing some big news.
And no... this isn’t just a holiday.

New place.
New energy.
Same Nemesis mindset.

Take a guess 👀
Where am I?

And more importantly…
what do you think is coming next?

#Nemesis #StudioLife

Rebranding isn’t about changing how you look.
It’s about changing how clearly you’re understood.

Changing your logo will have no impact on sales, culture, or marketing.
On its own.

A logo is a symbol, not a strategy.
It won’t fix misalignment, clarify your positioning, or create demand.

When a logo change is the result of strategic clarity, it amplifies momentum.
When it’s the starting point, it’s just decoration.

Federating teams isn’t about motivation.
It’s about direction.

When teams row in different directions,
no amount of effort moves the boat forward.

Good branding does one thing exceptionally well:
it aligns people around one vision.

One direction.
One language.
One shared understanding of why we do what we do.

When branding is done right:
• decisions get easier
• silos disappear
• energy compounds

Alignment isn’t soft.
It’s one of the most impactful business outcomes of branding work.

Some journeys are about more than building a brand, they’re about reshaping an industry.

With Enky | Furniture Solutions, Aïssa Laroussi and Shari Dewannemacker are on a mission to challenge the furniture industry as we know it.
I often say they’re building the new IKEA… but honestly, they’re going far beyond that.

They’re redefining how people discover, choose, and buy furniture,
with clarity, accessibility, and a deep understanding of modern lifestyles.

Working alongside founders with this level of ambition and vision is exactly why these projects matter.
Proud to be part of the Enky journey, and excited for what’s coming next.

Sometimes, you jump into a project knowing it’s a bet.

Qlyr was exactly that, one of the most ambitious projects we’ve taken on for the Swiss market.
A bold vision, a complex challenge, and the courage to aim high from day one.

Huge respect to Karine Kaensuwanpongsa for the trust, the ambition, and the energy behind this venture.
Building something like this takes clarity, resilience, and conviction.

Projects like Qlyr remind me why we do what we do:
to take risks, push boundaries, and help ambitious ideas find their place in the world.

Proud to be part of this journey.

From playing in the second division
to competing with Europe’s elite
in just 5 years.

What an incredible ride.

Vision.
Patience.
Relentless execution.

Proof that long-term thinking still wins.

C’était juste l’Union
en Champions League.

Your culture isn’t what you say it is.
It’s what you tolerate every day.

Not your values deck.
Not your brand book.
Not your off-site slogans.

Culture is the by-product of consistent behaviour.

How decisions are really made.
How feedback is actually given.
What gets ignored.
What gets rewarded.

The same behaviours, repeated long enough, become “the way things are done here.”

You don’t build culture by talking about it.
You build it by showing up the same way, every day.

Consistency beats intention.
Always.

One of my favorite projects this year: Student

Not just for the final result, but for everything that happened along the way.
A clear vision, honest and challenging conversations, and trust built from the very first exchange.

Huge thanks to Florence Loumaye for the trust, and to the entire Student team.
What you’re building truly matters.

You’re reshaping how students enter the world of work —
a cornerstone for generations to come.

Proud of what we built together.

Not every project stays a project.
Karman Consulting is a perfect example.

What started as a collaboration quickly became a shared journey,
a common vision, deep conversations, and trust that grew naturally over time.

Huge thanks to Inès Belaiba , who became more than a client: a friend, and now even a business partner.
A true inspiration on a daily basis.

Projects like this are a reminder that the most meaningful work often leads to relationships that last.
Grateful for what we’re building together.

How do you look at the future?

By hoping it will turn out well?
Or by deciding where you’re going?

Hope isn’t a strategy.
Direction is.

At Nemesis, we help our clients take control of their future
by setting a clear strategic roadmap.

One vision.
Clear priorities.
Concrete decisions.

Because the future doesn’t belong to those who wait.
It belongs to those who design it.

#Nemesis #Strategy #Leadership

Strong brands don’t start by talking about themselves.
They start by talking about the problem.

Not the product.
Not the features.
The real tension people live with.

Talk About the problem

(Re)branding isn’t about aesthetics.
It’s a strategic lever, especially at pivotal moments.

• When you launch and need clarity from day one
• When you scale and what got you here won’t get you there
• When you reinvent and the next move requires a new narrative

At each of these moments, branding plays a different role.
But the objective is always the same: direction.

Direction for decisions.
Direction for teams.
Direction for what comes next.

The right brand at the right moment
doesn’t just reflect change
it enables it.

Ego often gets in the way of good business.
Most founders have seen it. Many have paid the price.

That’s why operating without ego resonates so strongly.

But what truly lasts is not just the absence of ego.
It is brutal honesty.

Working without ego opens the door.
Brutal honesty stays when things get uncomfortable.
When decisions matter.
When clarity matters more than comfort.

The holidays are over.
Back to reality.

Before the to-do lists take over, a simple question:

What are your resolutions for 2026?

Not the polished ones.
The real ones.

The habits you want to change.
The behaviours you want to be more consistent with.
The things you’ll finally stop tolerating.

Curious to read yours 👇

#NewYear #Resolutions #Leadership

One of the most inspiring brand principles we’ve worked on lately came from a project called Momoamo.

Momoamo creates offsites for teams
in some of the most beautiful places in France.

But what really drives them isn’t the location.
It’s their narrative:

“Create unforgettable togetherness.”

To make that real, we defined a simple but powerful principle:
Go off script.

Not as a slogan.
As a behaviour.

Going off script means stepping outside the to-do list.
Rechallenging habits.
Questioning routines.
Creating something new, every single day.

For the team, it became a compass.
For their guests, it became memorable moments.
For the brand, it became alignment between intention and action.

As Co-Founder, CEO & Chief Product Officer of Wiggli, I’m building an AI-native operating system exclusively for recruiters and consultants working at recruitment agencies, staffing suppliers, and consultancies.

Talent suppliers today are under constant pressure to do more with less: fewer recruiters, tighter margins, more competition, and clients who expect speed without paying for inefficiency. 

I’ve lived that reality myself, having built and scaled recruitment and consulting businesses.

Wiggli exists for that exact context.

It unifies AI-driven sourcing, live market intelligence, and continuously enriched data with a recruiter-first ATS & Client CRM, mission and timesheet management (FMS), and optional supplier management (VMS); all designed around deal flow, not corporate HR processes.

Wiggli doesn’t just manage candidates.

It gives agencies full visibility into their client universe: company records, decision-makers and hiring managers, verified contact details, active job openings, and hiring signals ; all in one place and kept up to date. This allows recruiters to prospect, engage, and deliver with context, not assumptions.

The outcome is pragmatic, not theoretical:
faster shortlists, higher placement velocity, less operational drag, tighter margin control, and quicker cash collection ; enabling teams to place more people without scaling headcount.

We’re not building another ATS.

We’re building the Placement OS for modern recruitment firms, where client intelligence, candidate intelligence, execution, and revenue finally sit in the same system.

Wiggli supports agencies operating across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Africa, across permanent, contract, freelance, and consulting models at scale.

My mission remains constant:
to build systems that respect the reality of agency work, help teams perform under pressure, and use technology to amplify human judgment.

Farid Machaoud

I built Wiggli because I was tired of fighting my own tools.

For years, recruiting felt harder than it should be.
Too many platforms.
Too many logins.

Tools that don’t talk to each other.

Great candidates lost not because of people, but because of tech.

That never made sense to me.

So we built the platform I personally wished existed.

One place where everything actually connects:

 • 850M+ verified candidate profiles

 • AI matching that understands humans, not just keywords

 • A smart CRM that blends ATS data with live enrichment

 • Automations that remove admin work (finally)

 • Team collaboration that doesn’t slow you down

 • 3,000+ integrated job boards

 • Built-in VMS & freelancer management

 • Analytics you can really make decisions with


One platform.
One login.
No chaos.

Our clients fill roles 40% faster and cut recruiting costs by 50%.

Not because they work harder but because the system finally works with them.

This isn’t a small upgrade.
It’s a rethink of what recruiting software should actually do.

If you’ve ever thought “there has to be a better way” there is.
