Welcome to JFA Consulting
JFA Consulting offers a senior advisory and management service to business and the public sector.
Our focus is on supporting clients in addressing their social and environmental challenges. This might be via the development of policy or strategy, or through the design of specific projects or regional programmes (see project examples). Clients have included some of the best known global corporations as well as national governments
Key ingredients of success have been our ability to:
Integrate a range of skills and expertise
We bring the overall management and integration skills, and for larger or more complex briefs we partner with the most appropriate technical consultancies to create an ongoing project team with the necessary range of specialist expertise
Listen to and build good relations with stakeholders
We have a track record of building trust and understanding within a broad range of relationships from community stakeholders to chief executives and senior politicians (see consultation projects)
Be sensitive to doing business and interacting with different cultures
A common thread of our work has been delivering results in adverse circumstances or widely different cultural contexts, much in the Middle East and North Africa (see International).
JFA Consulting was set up by James Firebrace in 1998. For its recent history, see Development of JFA
