Research And Consulting - Sweeney Corporate
Corporate affairs executives turn to Sweeney Corporate research for a clearer picture of Stakeholder expectations. Experienced  researchers successfully identify true stakeholder motives, understand the drivers of outrage and astutely foresee emerging issues.

Key Stakeholders

Often a small group of Stakeholders can represent a powerful interest group, not only are their expectations sometimes complex, but these may well evolve at short notice.

Senior Sweeney qualitative researchers conduct ongoing in-depth interviews with these key stake holders. As the dialogue develops over time, a clearer picture of priorities, underlying motives, common ground and even possible solutions, emerges.

Social Media and the Stakeholder explosion

Today, stakeholders regularly use social media and online commentary to express their point of view. This wave of “opinion” is a valuable source of sentiment and insight which comes complete with minute to minute currency.

Sweeney Research is able to monitor public topics of conversation which are important to clients, then identify the “meaning” in the exchanges. Sweeney provides clients with summaries which accurately highlight the priority issues, clearing the way for swift and informed decision making.

Impact and influence

The success of a Corporate Affairs team within any organisation depends largely on their capacity to influence others.

Sweeney Research provides astute and succinct reports which are “Boardroom Ready”.
