APU ESSA

22Design Lab developed comprehensive creative strategy, direction, and content production for APU JSC's internal communications campaign introducing the ESSA (Eliminate, Simplify, Standardize, Automate) productivity framework to over 2,500 employees at Mongolia's premier beverage company with 90-year heritage. Our challenge was transforming a top-down operational mandate into an inspiring movement employees would genuinely embrace. Under the campaign concept "A New Era of Work," we created a strategic content ecosystem of 21 pieces across multiple formats—carousel posters, single posters, creative photography, video reels, and photographic storytelling. Our creative direction positioned ESSA as an energizing flow rather than rigid process, using buoyant, motivating messaging and dynamic visual treatments. We successfully reframed productivity optimization as an empowering opportunity, driving meaningful adoption across the organization.
