Refocusing communication strategy to achieve a higher impact
Effective corporate communications has never been more important.
With new technology blurring the distinctions between internal and external communications, organisations today have had to rethink their approach.
We are experienced corporate campaign managers offering deft and sensitive handling of internal and external communication initiatives. We can suggest ways to get the balance right between ‘traditional media’ and newer forms of social media.
We also help companies address tough issues – be they external reputation and regulatory issues, or internal transformations resulting from a merger. We identify strategic choices – and manage their execution and communication.
Strategy alone is not enough.
We put strategic plans to the test through execution workshops and simulation training exercises. These modular workshops are designed to build internal capacity to ensure executive teams are ready to respond to issues as they arise.
We operate as an integral part of a team. We bring organisational transformation experience and can help formulate strategy and execute plans for acquisitions and post-deal integrations.
Our experience is gained from highly regulated environments – covering areas such as union negotiation, environment, CSR, human rights and industry association engagement.

For executives of a US multinational company we run regular stakeholder and crisis simulations. These workshops last 6 hours each and allow a group of managers to experience realistic scenarios – also pressure-testing internal procedures and systems.
The simulation exercises demonstrate to the executive team what internal processes are working, as well as highlighting improvement areas. These exercises led to improved ‘media training’ techniques for relevant spokespersons and the introduction of new internal governance practices.
