strategy and policy
Effective strategy and policy sets the platform for the success of your organisation.
our Approach to strategy and policy
Sound strategy sets the foundations for success – either for your organisation or your next project. We know it is important to think of the bigger picture before launching into an idea.
We work collaboratively with you and use our skills and expertise to develop your desired strategic direction, and to create policies which are actionable and get real results.
Our strategy and policy services are led by Steve Thompson and Cinnamon Dunsford, who are both qualified planners with extensive experience and knowledge in the local government system. We have expertise across a range of local council functions and business units including economic development, waste, tourist parks, cemeteries, aquatic and leisure centres, tourism/events and land use planning.
Where appropriate, we use a range of community engagement methods to assist in developing successful strategies, policies and plans that have buy in from stakeholders. We also draw upon our political, grant, legal, governance, conflict resolution and procurement expertise.
