🎙️ Brand Matters – Episode 10: Activating Purpose with Google’s Creative Lead Andreas Mielenhausen

“Don’t decorate. Demonstrate.”

In this powerful episode, Misha Chernyshev sits down with Andreas Mielenhausen, Creative Lead at Google Creative Works, to explore one of the most important (and misunderstood) concepts in brand building: Purpose.

Together, they unpack how to activate purpose in a way that’s real, consistent, and impactful — not just a line in a manifesto, but a living, breathing system that shapes how brands behave and grow.

🔥 What you’ll learn in this episode:

• What purpose means (and why it’s more than a slogan)

• How Google connects purpose with creativity and culture

• Why internal activation matters even more than external campaigns

• The role of empathy, storytelling, and clarity in driving creative work

• How to build trust and create movements, not just messages

This episode is packed with insights, frameworks, and real stories for brand leaders, strategists, creatives, and founders who want to turn purpose into a competitive advantage — and a force for good.
