Shareholder Activism Planning & Defense
We have a unique understanding of the activist playbook and have deep experience defending management teams, companies and boards from activist attacks.
When activists show up, we work with our clients and other advisors to develop a communications and IR strategy for a potential fight while ensuring that companies effectively tell their corporate and financial story.
We work alongside financial and legal advisors in activism planning processes, and create and run simulation trainings for boards and management teams.
Executive Transitions & Positioning
We work with companies during periods of leadership transition. With any executive change, all internal and external key stakeholders need to understand the rationale for change as well as the path forward.
We help CEOs and members of the C-suite build and strengthen relationships with key members of the financial media and other influential commentators, as they build and execute their own platforms and visibility within the business community.
Governance Matters
We work with C-suites and boards as they navigate corporate governance-related issues, whether it is shareholder engagement, executive compensation, proxy proposals or ESG policies.
