Has the hand-shake and air
kiss greeting died?
With people’s desire to see social
distance maintained and the ‘cues’
having changed we may never return
to handshakes and air kisses.

How far will the changes progress as we
continue to self-reflect more?

Will people tolerate crowds less? The
very idea of crowded supermarkets and
shopping centers becomes an
anathema?
How limits to our
freedom
Have made us value our personal space.
•   Most people didn’t want social distance restrictions
    ended when they did
•   Isolation was frustrating and irritable but also made us
    more reflexive and increased wellbeing
•   Social distancing may result in new social norms and
    habits: the death of the handshake or at least the
    decline of the ‘crowd’.
The end of the sharing
economy?

Is this the end of
the shared
economy?

The share economy
monetised the
‘wasted’ utility of
material possessions.

Can the shared
economy pivot in the
face of fear of
sharing?
The end of the share
economy?
• We became thinking, relaxing homebodies but
  ultimately want to become ‘fit adventurers’
• Long term resilience and capacity building is
  going to more important (education, super etc..)
• But we want less of the wasteful, indulgent or
  shared products and services

One of online events I watched
was Ballet Australia’s online
performance of Romeo and Juliet,
it was just wonderful, I have missed
being able to go to see it live, I also
watched their online performance
of Cinderella, the live ballet
performances are special as I share
them with my granddaughter, we
had to be content with watching
them online at the same time from
our respective houses and
FaceTiming after to talk about the
performance

Live experiences are here
to stay
• We’ve comfortably moved online for a variety of
  experiences
• Brands have an amazing opportunity to embrace this
  shift for direct engagement to an engaged audience
• We are seeing the future as combining real world and
  live experiences
In conclusion
1. Restrictions have eased but many of us weren’t comfortable
   with the ease and continue to be uneasy about ‘crowds’
2. We want more of the categories that build long term
   resilience, less discretionary spend and less shared stuff
3. But if the ‘share economy’ is in trouble the on-line live
   shared experiences are here to stay
4. There is a huge opportunity now for brands to align with
   people’s aspirations to be ‘fit and healthy adventurers’ or
   build long term resilience and communicate using more
   direct engagement
