We help companies align and optimize strategy and communication, using behavioral insights learned from years of experience (and confirmed by scientific research), integrating marketing and advertising principles seldom considered by consultants in this field, and, where needed, using lawyers and the legal system to your advantage.When negotiating agreements and settling disputes, business leaders will often fail because they pursue the wrong goals, pick the wrong battles and fight for the wrong reasons. They too often focus more on changing the adversaries' opinion as opposed to changing their actions. The distinction is crucial.Ascent advises businesses of all types and industries with disputes in which the adversary has large or unlimited resources with which to exploit weaknesses. In these situations, emotion clouds thinking. Difficult decisions must be made based on limited information; and playing by the rules means certain defeat. Such cases require unconventional strategies and tactics to offset deficiencies in resources, knowledge, and experience.Related to these issues is helping clients understand that strategies and ultimate goals will change as the external environment changes, which requires a creative mindset. Research and data analysis is an integral part of Ascent's services, superior knowledge being essential to orchestrating asymmetrical strategies.If your company, or an important client, needs these skills and knowledge, contact us for a freeprivate consultation.
