Strategic Counsel

Too much organisational time and energy is now spent dealing with the reputational and operational fallout and crisis management. This could be from previous decision making where decisions were taken without a full understanding of stakeholders, audience, place or consequence.

When disruption hits, leaders are often forced into reactive mode: managing risk, defending position, and repairing trust. By that point, options are limited and focus is lost.

We believe you need to work much further upstream if are committed to making a difference in the world, and put in the ground work to identify issues early, test assumptions, and shape decisions before they become problems.

A Different Kind of Strategic Advice

We provide strategic counsel grounded in a different set of objectives — those of creating social good, long-term impact, and institutional legitimacy. This is part of your social contract with the communities around you.

Our role is to help civic minded and busy leaders:

• Understand how decisions will land with stakeholders
• Anticipate social, political, and reputational risk
• Balance commercial, institutional, and community priorities
• Align your strategy with charitable giving and current place-based needs.
• Make choices with strong due diligence that stand up to scrutiny over time

If you are framing your future strategy around impact and social good, we can help you have better clarity, foresight, and better judgment. This is aimed at business leaders and also more informal support for not-for-profit leaders.
