Why we get up in the morning

JWGecko’s Mission is to ... Provide software tools for training organisations that automate processes to enhance focus on both quality learning and commercial outcomes.

JWGecko is the brainchild of Sascha Macleod, John Wooding, and David Lobb who wanted to create a business built on the foundations of:

• Experience
• Innovation
• Listening
• And a belief that anything is possible

All of our solutions are designed to free people from repetitive and boring tasks so they can focus on imagining and innovating new ideas that grow their business.

How the JWGecko story began

Our story began in 1997 when Sascha, David and John first got together. It was a heady time; it was the year we lost Diana and Michael Hutchence, Hong Kong was returned to Chinese control and Bill Clinton was causing controversy with a certain intern. It was at this time that the Internet was taking hold and changing the way the world communicated.

Forward 12 years to 2009 when JWGecko was created to bring together their experience, ideas, and desires to be at the forefront of digital marketing and thinking. The underlying value to clients is simple:

• We listen,
• Innovate based on their ideas,
• Reduce risks, and
• Help them grow
