What We Do

1)     We study what’s happening in the world around us. 

2)    We wonder how things could be different/better, and we generate ideas to create social impact.

3)    We envision, develop & acquire intellectual property and strategic assets to bring our ideas to life.

4) We convene & partner with other socially conscious organizations that have complementary skillsets, and we create synergies to bring our ideas to market … efficiently and sustainably. We create Eclectic Alchemy®.

Eclectic Alchemy® was originally founded in 2017 as Take12, LLC - a nod to the founder’s upcoming 12 month sabbatical in Latin America after 360 months in Corporate America:  as a Procter & Gamble Global Brand Manager including stints on Crest®, Aleve®, Tampax®/Always®/Alldays® & Pepto Bismol®, as a telecommunications company Director leading business transformation, service operations digitization and mergers & acquisitions due diligence, and as an Engineer with ExxonMobil.

Since then, Founder & CEO Derrick S. Tarver, MBA, has leveraged his Fortune 100 corporate experience - and his life experience with the people, cultures and business practices of 40+ countries - to grow Eclectic Alchemy® into an innovative think-lab & Brand Creator focused on selectively developing solutions to solve complex social impact challenges.
