Areas of Practice
Strategic planning
The pace of staying alive is sometimes exhausting. Successful organizations and businesses must find the time to be self aware and pivot towards their opportunities and strengths and minimize their weaknesses and threats. This must be done while remaining true to your organizations mission and values. We can provide that deep breath you know you need but have been unable to take. Our strategic planning services will keep you focused and moving forward.
LABOUR RElations SERVICES
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link -and a business or organization is only as strong as the commitment of its front line partners. Labour relationships - whether union or non-union - can be complicated, expensive and overwhelming. It is hard to imagine if you are overwhelmed - but labour relationships can also be the most satisfying aspect of your internal operations. Maybe it is early and you want to start out on the right foot; maybe something went wrong and seems impossible to correct. Regardless of your organizational reality - it is useful to spend some time on this aspect of your business. Most good problems do not go away when ignored. Let us think outside the box to create a win-win for you and your team.
MEDIATION SERVICES
Relationships can get off track - even between well intentioned parties. In these instances, acting quickly and utilizing the services of a trusted third party mediator can often help avoid costly litigation costs, adverse publicity and loss of control. Our services in this regard are strictly confidential and discreet and can help save the relationship, be it business or personal. Mediation services also provide speedy resolutions with less expense than purely legal alternatives.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Regardless of which purpose - every business, organization, service club, or entity exists for a reason. Often a great idea, or a solution to a problem, isn’t enough. Attention needs to be paid to implementation and creating long term value (however measured) from prospective audiences, customers, markets and relationships. Successful organizations are thinking ahead - because they know their competition is. You can continue to focus on your product or service - let us make sure you out-pace your opposition.
RELATIONship DEVELOPMENT & MANAGEMENT
We have spent years building relationships with a wide variety of community stakeholders, industry leaders, labour unions, government officials and business owners. We feel that relationships are much more powerful, and rewarding, than anything that can be put on paper. If we develop a relationship with you - we would be pleased to leverage our existing relationships to help achieve your goals and advance your objectives. Beyond existing relationships - we can develop issue-based coalitions, monitor and manage public opinion strategies and help you meet the people you want, or need, to know. Strategic connections and opportunities in the external environment to your organization is where we thrive. This is our speciality and it is a valuable and unique service.
Financing Assistance
Necessity is the mother of invention. Often those with great ideas do not have the access to capital to get their project off the ground. Sometimes government can provide mezzanine level finance - but project proponents still require the equity to make their dream look like a reality. We have been successful in matching people who have capital with those who require it - specifically in the heavy industrial sector Eastern Canada. If this sounds like a door that’s been closed on you - perhaps we can open it.
GOVERNMENT RELATIONS
In complex industries or organizations, governments can play multiple roles - customer, regulator, employer, partner, friend, foe. Careful consideration and maintenance of relationships with governments that affect your interests is an often complicated, and therefore ignored, aspect of operations. We can simplify this to-do list and add value to your bottom line. Any relationship worth having - is worth spending time on. Let us make this simple for you.
COMMUNICATIONS
Being the much needed solution to a problem is not enough - people need to know that you exist, and how to find you. Often they also need to know with confidence that you are the right fit for them before they each out. A good communications plan is a brokerage between you and your intended audience. Present day platforms for communications are ever changing and can be intimidating. We can help you increase your quantity of earned media from traditional sources. We can also help you use and leverage social media platforms and develop community engagement strategies. We can help you communicate to, and with, your intended audience while you stay focused on your primary objectives.
“I have a loyalty that runs in my bloodstream, when I lock into someone or something, you can’t get me away from it because I commit that thoroughly. That’s in friendship, that’s a deal, that’s a commitment. Don’t give me paper - I can get the same lawyer who drew it up to break it. But if you shake my hand, that’s for life.
