Delivering Impactful
Public Affairs Strategies

Founded and led by César Lesage, CL Corporate Affairs focuses in particular on reputational risk issues facing organisations operating in sensitive sectors, supporting them in better adapting their strategy in the face of sometimes brutal and unpredictable shifts in their political, regulatory and social environment that may call into question the very fundamentals of their own legitimacy.

CL Corporate Affairs more concretely and more specifically supports organisations in their institutional and political relations, thereby ensuring:

1. the strengthening of their visibility;
2. the enhancement of their expertise;
3. the consolidation of their credibility;
4. the building and development of their influence.

This support is structured around two operational forms, enabling clients to better defend their interests, protect their reputation and adapt, preserve or develop their business model:

• Acting in an advisory capacity, to assist its clients in their outreach, scheduling of meetings and exchanges with supranational, state and local institutions and authorities, in order to build established and trusted relationships with key decision-makers.
• Offering to represent them in a structured and long-term manner, as their agent, subject to compatibility with the professional and legal obligations specific to each. CL Corporate Affairs then takes full charge, on behalf of and alongside its clients, of regular as well as ad hoc interactions with the key stakeholders of their ecosystem (political, administrative and social actors, or interprofessional organisations), both at the European level and in France, thereby carrying out all or part of the activities associated with the functions of a public affairs officer or institutional relations manager.
