Strategic advice that moves the reputational dial.

We believe in reputation with purpose. That means building and protecting your reputation for the benefit of what matters most to you – rather than pursuing profile for its own sake. Developing the right communications strategy is a key element of this approach.

We help clients identify their priority goals then deliver brilliant narrative, messaging and communication planning.

Our decades of editor level journalistic experience and unrivalled networks mean we are valuable advisers on media strategy. Whether running a proactive campaign or dealing with unwanted media interest we know who to engage with, what to say – and what not to say – to protect and enhance your reputation.

We believe in impactful, targeted PR execution and we help our clients pursue their long-term ambitions and handle short-term issues with equal diligence, agility and focus.

We work closely with some of the most successful legal firms, helping them advise clients on strategic approaches to managing the reputational impact of civil litigation and criminal proceedings. When cases present reputation challenges, law firms turn to us to ensure their clients have the best, agenda free advice.

And when our clients need legal support, we know exactly who to refer them to from our network.

We operate as discreet, highly skilled advisers providing a ‘safe space’ for our private clients delivering agenda free, high-level counsel to help them define, drive and protect their purpose.

We’ve helped our clients build long-term reputational strategies, navigate complex succession issues, establish and grow brilliant philanthropic ventures, make better and valuable connections and manage unexpected crises.

The risk of global and regional political sensitivities becoming an existential challenge for businesses, entrepreneurs and national governments has never been higher. Our team and associate network have extensive strategic advisory and analytical experience in the Middle East, central and eastern Europe, China and the Caribbean.

We work with clients to shape investor relations strategy for a range of audiences and circumstances. Communicating with existing institutional and retail investors, pitching to VCs/PE for a new fundraise, gearing up for IPO and courting M&A suitors each require subtly tailored storytelling.

We understand the nuances of these challenges and help clients to navigate them without losing message consistency and impact.

Too often businesses find media monitoring products don’t deliver what they need and create time-consuming work. Our smart monitoring model combines the power of AI and the insight of expert human analysis to give clients a daily media feed plus regular deep dives tailored precisely to the priorities of their business.

Efficient. Valuable. Personalised.

From LinkedIn to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, we craft strategies and content for digital and social media that moves the dial. And if a bespoke podcast is what you need, we can create, edit and produce a brilliant, cut-through product for you.

Even the most eloquent leadership teams can benefit from personalised communications coaching. Persuasively explaining your vision to boardroom colleagues, investors, customers and media is a vital part of the CEO’s job description.

Our coaching programmes, delivered by seasoned media professionals and tailored to your needs, ensure you find the right language, tone of voice and presentation style to connect with, and persuade, the audiences that matter most to you.
