Arc’teryx Leadership Badges

This collection of badges was designed for an internal leadership development program at Arc'teryx, recognizing the completion of various learning modules, or "camps."

Inspired by mountaineering tools, each badge represents a different stage of the participant's journey, with increasingly complex tools symbolizing growth in skills and leadership.

Although the collection was fully developed, it was ultimately not produced and serves as a reminder that not every strong concept makes it into the world. It remains one of my favourite examples of translating a brand's values into a thoughtful, cohesive recognition system.
