Meet the Minds: Jonathan Scott

At 1000 Feathers, we often say that the way a story is told matters just as much as the story itself. When it comes to crafting reports, weaving together complex ideas, or fine-tuning our strategic thinking, that’s where our partner Jonathan Scott comes in.

A former journalist and lifelong wordsmith, Jonathan has built a career around clarity, precision, and storytelling that resonates. He’s the person we call when we need a sharp eye for detail, a compelling narrative, and strategic copywriting that moves people to think and act. Whether he’s helping to shape a major report or refining a communications plan, Jonathan ensures every word has purpose.

When asked what makes a collaboration successful, Jonathan keeps it simple: “When I learn something new from someone I’m working with. Teamwork leads to synergy, which makes the end result so much better than anything I could do alone.” 

It’s that curiosity and humility that make him such an integral part of our extended team.

Outside of work, Jonathan enjoys mountain biking, trail running, woodworking, and spending time outdoors with his wife and two dogs. And he’s currently revising his novel, an exploration of the meaning of Truth. “When I completed the first draft, in 2011, the theme was the search for Truth in the age of social media,” he says. “While much of the story is still relevant today, adverse changes to the social media algorithms and the emergence of generative AI have accelerated the distortion of facts and led to widespread disinformation. So the theme of the new draft—Outside the Algorithm—is the search for meaning in the post-Truth era.”
