Philosophy

Woodstock Leasor – Strategic Communications Counsel… What does this mean? What do we offer that’s any different from the multitude of other agencies around the world offering?

What may surprise the cynics amongst you is that our real client is actually the client, not ourselves or anyone else we are trying to impress, as is sadly all too often the case in the communications business.

What does this mean for you, the client? It means that our only interest is to offer the advice and service that is best for you – we have no other agenda.

We have been fortunate enough to have worked on many varied scenarios over the last 30 years, from complex IPOs and rights issues, to disputes involving some of the most creative litigators in the business across multiple geographies, to governments handling complex transitions that will affect the welfare and future of millions of people. We have pretty much seen it all, and from all sides.

We won’t take on anything where we think we can’t make a genuine difference. But on those assignments that we are part of, we will move heaven and earth, to achieve the goal of our clients.
