Global Public Affairs

Global Public Affairs helps clients identify and engage key decision makers and opinion leaders, including potential government "champions" for client issues. We invest the time necessary to build relationships, and encourage direct corporate involvement - we strongly believe clients are their own best advocates. We offer options to leverage existing stakeholder relationships such as industry associations, civil society and coalitions. We work with clients to build messaging targeted to specific audiences and help clients realistically define their "ask" or request of government.

Timing is essential. A client's chances of success largely depend on budgetary cycles, parliamentary calendars, the legislative process, and election timing. Our understanding of government dynamics and evolving political landscapes allows us to take the necessary action at the right time. Whether changing or defending public policy, streamlining regulatory approvals, positioning clients for government procurement, or profile-building for long-term success, timing is everything.

Our unique Lobby Day service has proven to be a highly effective tool in achieving these objectives. In addition to conveying your messages to government, engaging stakeholders and public relations activities are all important tactics in increasing your chances of success.
