Stakeholders and public affairs

We recognize critical issues and build trusting relationships.

Stable and trusting relationships with stakeholders are essential for a company’s success. We advise and support you in identifying, analyzing and dealing with relevant stakeholders and their issues.

Dialogue-oriented and open communication is becoming more and more important. Opinions in politics and society are increasingly formed through direct exchange; dialog is the magic word of modern communication. Organizations are now required to actively seek systematic engagement with their key stakeholders. After all, only those who know their stakeholders, their goals and their communication and engage in constructive dialogue can effectively achieve their own organizational goals.

Based on many years of experience in stakeholder management and public affairs, anticipatory thinking and in-depth knowledge of decision-making and administrative processes at state, federal and EU level, we advise you on the identification and analysis of relevant stakeholders in government and society. With background information and tailor-made strategies, we support you in your dialog with representatives from the pre-political and political sphere as well as economic and social players such as companies, associations and foundations. This includes issue management and monitoring, with which we can use big data technologies to present opinion and topic developments with pinpoint accuracy and on a minute-by-minute basis. Based on this, we help to assess the consequences of social, political and economic changes for organizations and develop appropriate options for action.

Our practice shows that well-thought-out, structured stakeholder management supports organizations as an early warning system for dynamic, complex and critical issues and protects against loss of reputation. Ongoing, vigilant monitoring of the social and political environment as well as stakeholder-oriented and, above all, authentic communication have a positive influence on the public perception of companies and organizations and make a decisive contribution to their success.
