Our core competencies give you
more ways to succeed.

• 
  Conservation Strategy
We work with our clients to develop and implement conservation strategies that deliver.

Our team of specialists will guide and help you achieve your goals through conservation planning, strategy and execution. Environmental business planning, turtle tracking, donor cultivation, river recovery or sustainable seafood - no matter what the challenge, we craft tailored solutions to ensure that the needs of the environment are met as a result of your work.

We also help government agencies and non-profit organisations in strategic areas such as community engagement, organisational planning and alignment, expert and executive facilitation, threatened species management and recovery, and native animal population management. Landscape-scale and asset-based conservation planning approaches come naturally to us, and these skills have been successfully applied across catchments and on large farming operations.

We love building fully integrated conservation programs to maximise outcomes for our clients and for the environment.
• Green Business Coaching
We help our clients green their bottom lines.

Today's successful businesses combine their limited resources with market intelligence to leverage a competitive advantage. As the global business community embraces sustainability as a smart, competitive edge, individual businesses of all shapes and sizes are critically evaluating how to become that little bit greener.

Going green does require more than just changing a light-bulb, but that doesn't mean it is difficult, or costly. The key is to know how to approach the change and to invest in both behavioural and technical components of your sustainable business transformation. The technical pieces - such as assessing energy consumption and creating supplier guidelines - are important, but many business fail to leverage their commitment to the fullest extent because they ignore staff culture, marketing opportunities and niche product placement in an increasingly sophisticated consumer landscape.

Our team of international professionals is our clients' best source of information on global and local sustainability initiatives and trends. Having worked on both sides of the field - in conservation and sustainability, as well as in small to large corporations - we can effectively speak both languages. With our coaching, staff training and green marketing expertise, we will help you transform your current operations into a green business that is truly sustainable.
• Carbon Offsets and Ecosystem Repair
We believe carbon should benefit nature as much as people.

Each day we help businesses manage their direct and indirect emissions to reduce them to the lowest levels possible. Where it is not feasible to become carbon-neutral within operations alone, we then provide our clients with opportunities to further offset their carbon emissions, in ways that also benefit vulnerable wildlife. Through our Wild Carbon project, we help our clients convert their carbon footprints into a thousand pawprints, by establishing wildlife corridors between patches of remnant forest and bushland.

Our partners in this work include Proyecto Titi, a non-profit organisation dedicated to conserving the endangered cotton-top tamarins of Colombia and their rainforest homes; and the Lemur Conservation Foundation, which works in the USA and Madagascar to conserve lemurs through captive breeding, scientific research, education and reintroduction. With the on-ground work of these partners, anyone can offset their greenhouse gas emissions through Wild Carbon, and know that they are making a positive difference to more than just the atmosphere.

• Communication with Purpose
We craft effective communication strategies and products that guide, protect and enhance corporate and environmental outcomes.

Communication Planning - Our approach is based on important, but often overlooked, principles, with an emphasis on matching messages to mavens. Informed by our risk management and community engagement strategies, your communications goals will be more focused and refined. Our skills in social media strategy will also strengthen the power of your messages by building web2.0 touch-points into your communications - ensuring a rapid, contemporary and extensive reach of your story.

Social Marketing - Our commitment to community-wide behaviour change can help you achieve your environmental objectives more efficiently than you might think. We use proven techniques and contemporary survey data so we know where your target communities are starting from. By researching motivations, blockages and entrenched practices, we are able to add local knowledge to campaigns so you can move your audiences closer to your goals.

Speaking Engagements - We are well-regarded and sought after as speakers for all manner of events, from conference keynotes to service club luncheons and most things in between. Feel free to contact us to find out more about the entertaining and interesting ways we can add value to your next event.
• Zoo, Aquarium & Museum Services
We create fun times and memorable places that affect people.

Some of the world's finest natural history organisations have benefited from our ability to plan, build and operate compelling displays and complementary conservation, education and interpretation programs. Sometimes an outside expert is needed to push a project to the next level. At other times a project requires facilitation, lateral insights and disciplined creativity. We carry sound science and ingenuity with us at all times, achieving outstanding results in areas ranging from digitally enhanced exhibit design and interpretation to strategic planning and social media marketing. Our teams also develop, expand and evaluate highly effective environmental education programs. We bring over 40 years of collective educational leadership and program delivery experience in zoos, aquariums, nature centers, schools, and theme parks to your project.

We specialise in creating integrated programs to achieve "whole of organisation" results. By fully integrating sustainability throughout your organisation, we can help you to demonstrate that your organisation lives and is committed to its mission. Through our Wild Carbon project, you can also convert your footprint into living habitat for animals in your collection.

Whatever your needs, we will partner with you to achieve the successes you want for your visitors, staff, volunteers, interns, donors, and board.
