Building consensus is what most often leads to the best results. How do you build consensus? You can’t do it solo, that’s for sure.

The strength of Block Relations as well as one of its key elements of differentiation is its company philosophy. As we got started right at the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, the encouraging phrase “Stronger Together” was a maxim we drew strength from personally and professionally…yet it also carried over into our work.

With time spent in the Tezos and startup communities, we were also well aware of the value inherently found in establishing a collaborative culture. Beautiful, brilliant things most often happen when connections are made between people, places and purposes. This is why we’re pleased to announce the arrival of three new amazing individuals to the Block Relations team — —

Brian Hough: Chief Strategy Officer

Brian is adept at planning and process. He envisions, establishes and enhances with acuity, accuracy and high energy. Able to work collaboratively across a broad array of areas and sectors and with a multi-faceted skillset, BR’s Strategic Services and all of its assets from branding to marketing are well in hand.

Lindsay Ellsworth: Chief Innovation Officer

Lindsay Ellsworth is a bridge builder. Her mind is an ever-expanding treasury of ideas, approaches and operational opportunities. With the ability to speak to and foster exchanges between the public and private sector, Lindsay’s tactical abilities are abundant.

She can read a room and win it over quickly. She’s determined to corner the market on innovative integration, she’s agile, humble and a natural connector.

Curious and wise, her presence on our team will undoubtedly accelerate us on course.

Varsha Manek: Syndicate Partner and Special Agent with BR Business Intelligence

Varsha is the Founder and CTO of Techno Impact. Having built TI and assembled a first-rate team of developers, designers and specialists, she has rich experience in knowing how people, places and purposes function on a deep, fundamental level.

Her talent in uniting people and technology has resulted in numerous achievements for her company, and at BR she’s spearheaded the CryptoIndia initiative as part of BR’s Business Intelligence Bureau research.

An avid explorer and coffee drinker, Varsha brings a refreshing perspective, a strong team spirit, and a commitment to getting stuff done.
