Stefan Schepers assists and coaches companies in making the transition from traditional lobbying and communications and corporate social responsibility programs to an inclusive approach of political and societal developments.
A concrete regulatory issue can be a launching pad for such management adaptation just as well as the requirement for more inclusive corporate strategy development and implementation.
Additionally, to put these new management concepts into practice, he can draw upon the expertise of his colleagues at EPPA in Brussels and his network of academic experts to help the company address societal change and political and regulatory situations effectively, in particular in Europe and its immediate vicinity with its multiple, century-old links and its growing economic interdependence.
Making the transition can involve some or all of the following three steps:
step 1 |
creating awareness |
step 2 |
adapting processes |
objective |
Innovative management of a company’s social-cultural and political-regulatory context cannot be done in isolation from the company’s other operations . It must be embedded in all the strategic and commercial decision processes. |
service |
Starting from the company’s specific situation, Stefan Schepers helps to develop internal organisational processes to do so effectively. He advises on how to communicate and negotiate with all the stakeholders and how to implicate key business units and head office functions, such as R&D, finance, production, sourcing and marketing. |
step 3 |
establishing a permanent social dialogue |
