Consultancy and Support

Central to our work is promoting organisational cultures which are open to challenge and scrutiny – this forms an essential bedrock on which governance behaviours, structures and processes become effective.

People with decision-making duties, and those holding them to account as non-executives, hold a responsibility in common – a responsibility to act in the interests of good governance, and a responsibility to act accountable and with probity.

We provide a range of services, from multi-year corporate governance support for large multinationals to one-off training sessions for elected members in district councils. 

Please click on the links below to read more about what we can offer in each of these sectors, alongside brief case studies of our work in practice.

• The corporate sector (like Mears, Skanska and Engie);
• The housing sector (like NHF and L&Q);
• Membership organisations (like the LEP Network and Royal College of Nursing);
• Non-profits and organisations with unique governance arrangements (like the Diocese of London and Suma);
• Bodies in the NHS, with whom we carried out significant work on preparation for the establishment of “integrated care systems” – we continue to work with health partners on the implementation of the Health and Care Act;
• Local government, where we have particular technical expertise and work with a large number of local authorities across England. For local government clients we also have a comprehensive member and officer training and development offer: you can find out more here.
