Corporate affairs leaders, Susan Redden Makatoa and Peter Fraser have joined forces with solicitor and advocate, Mick Bainbridge to create Stratagem Corporate Advisory.
With a special focus on boards and executives, Stratagem will offer corporate communications and executive training, public affairs, issues mitigation and crisis management, and legal / regulatory engagement. The advisory's structure allows it to offer legal privilege from the outset, which it says creates an advantage in handling sensitive matters.
Susan and Peter have previously worked together at Edelman, where they were Head of Corporate, APAC and lead government relations counsel Australia respectively. Susan is a CPRA Fellow with over two decades' experience leading agencies, while Peter is an experienced former political adviser and corporate affairs senior counsel.
Mick is founder of Operational Legal and is known for his advocacy for veterans around Australia, working closely with government and not-for-profits.
Stratagem's Managing Director, Susan Redden Makatoa said: "We have all been working on complex, high-stakes matters in recent years, which need calm, considered and informed counsel. So, we’ve formed a team with extensive corporate, government and legal expertise to guide our clients through multi-stakeholder corporate, government affairs and legal/regulatory challenges and opportunities."
