We take into account the local, regional, national and, where required, international needs as well as working to incorporate best practice solutions to meet the perceived and actual needs of the end service user.
Private Sector
Strategic Discourse was originally set up to serve Public Sector organisations. However, after our reputation grew in this sector, we were continually approached by Private Sector organisations. It became clear that we had to serve this market as well.
Over the past several years, we have grown our team to include some of the most experienced specialists in a variety of industries. The team consists of specialists in strategy, operations, sales, technology, research & analysis and marketing and communications.
We ensure that all our teams are lead by those specialists in the client specific areas – those specialists who can deliver true operational and strategic change in their sectors without disturbing local delivery needs.
Public Sector
Strategic Discourse work across a number of citizen facing organisations within the wider public sector. We work closely with our client partners to ensure that we manage change in a structured manner.
We understand that end service users must be protected, and that delivery is solely for their benefit. Our experts have experience in each of their specialist areas. Our lead consultants have worked with partners in healthcare, education and community, and these areas form the three pillars of our public sector engagements.
Understanding that resources across the public sector have been been put under increasing strain over the last decade, we have worked hard to build a number of specialist models to ensure that precious front-line public sector resources are truly protected.
Voluntary & Charity Sector
We understand the responsibility we have to support charities and other philanthropic organisations. Many of our team conduct their own charitable initiatives and this is something we encourage.
We understand the significant work that charities do and how important they are to their end users and wider community. It has always been part of our ethos to support charities wherever we can to ensure their end users receive the maximum benefit. With this understanding, we have a number of leading academics and industry experts on our team that have help us to devise several models specifically tailored towards the charity/voluntary sector.
Similarly to the needs of the Public Sector, we have devised these models in such a way that provides precious protection to the recourses of these incredible organisations.
