What we do

In the most high-pressure situations our consultants remain calm and apply their years of experience and understanding of how a situation unfolds and the processes to handle it. We have managed the communications for corporate conduct issues, operational failures, financial irregularities, product recalls, union activism, supply chain issues, employee disputes, customer complaints and more. As soon as a company calls us, we will initiate the essential first steps, assessing the situation, developing scenario plans, crafting messaging, monitoring public response on media and social platforms and coaching the spokespeople. But of course it is advisable to be ready before a crisis even occurs. We can prepare a company to handle their public relations smoothly, working with them on readiness training, developing crisis handbooks, drafting possible scenarios and messaging and training executives to face the glare of the media under pressure.

The rapidly evolving economic landscape adds further complexity to what is already a difficult landscape to navigate for business leaders. Litigation is also on the rise around ESG related investment decisions with new rules on their way to counter greenwashing claims. Finding advisers who understand this has never mattered more. Our ideas and advice focus on showing the positive impact of a long-term sustainable approach, while being conscious of the challenges.

Thorough and cleverly thought-out research conducted with the right access to sources and an analytical mind to review them can be the key to an effective communications strategy. The communication of a company’s messages needs to be well-crafted, regular and consistent to have the desired impact. Our team of skilled writers work closely with our clients to produce sophisticated social media posts, website content, corporate video scripts and thought-leadership articles which can be placed in traditional and social media platforms.

Our China team is expert in helping companies get their message heard through the widely popular WeChat platform. We understand that regular and relevant content is the most important factor for success and we work with our clients on maintaining that drumbeat. We also help our clients develop corporate videos as well as structure and content for their website, particularly for newly-listed companies who require dedicated Investor Relations content.

Our team across our seven markets in Asia has worked on a wide range of events including corporate days, investor presentation lunches, large and small scale cocktails and dinners, anniversaries and listing celebrations, official opening of offices, media conferences, seminars and conferences. We can manage an event from the planning stage, to coordinating vendors, to executing on the day.

Our seasoned trainers have worked with senior executives from more than 100 companies across the region. Our range of workshops include media training, speaker training, investor relations training and crisis communications training.

We advise listed companies on communicating with their shareholders and operating global best practices. We also organise events including roadshows, corporate/investor days and site visits, annual general meetings and analyst briefings.

Leveraging our 30 years of experience in the region, we are able to provide our clients with the best strategic advice and communications on their transactions, whether in-bound or out-bound M&A or capital raising.

Our work covers a broad spectrum of services including executive profiling and thought leadership, CSR, corporate positioning and messaging, as well as media relations.
