STRATEGY & ADVISORY / INSTITUTIONAL ADVISORY

Institutional advisory

Structure for complex decisions.

A complex institutional decision needs a clear mandate, an accurate view of stakeholders and a record of how the evidence leads to a recommendation.

Explore the scope

What the work can cover

Clarify the mandate

Establish what the organisation is trying to achieve, which decisions sit within the scope and who has authority to make them.

Organise the perspectives

Map the relevant stakeholders, their responsibilities and the information needed from each. Keep established facts separate from assumptions about interests or influence.

Prepare implementation

Translate a direction into responsibilities, dependencies, reporting and review points. Record questions that need specialist or internal approval.

A clear working process

  1. Confirm the mandate and the decision owner.
  2. Map stakeholders, responsibilities and evidence.
  3. Examine the options and implementation dependencies.
  4. Prepare a decision record and a review structure.

Bring the context you already have

  • A short description of the institution and its mandate.
  • The decision, programme or coordination question in scope.
  • The decision-making and approval process.
  • Available documents and any limits on access or disclosure.
