Outcomes

The global climate emergency, and its impact on the world, present humanity with unprecedented challenges that require urgent responses from every sector. We support a wide range of organisations in scaling both technologically advanced, and nature-based, solutions, driving policy and campaigns, building translational research agendas, and through green finance, deliver new approaches for the future. We find leaders who boldly seek innovative approaches, creating societies and economies of the future to deliver socially responsible and just transitions to create a liveable future for all.

Our lives depend on our planet’s natural infrastructure, however the destruction of nature, and the impact of climate change poses an existential threat to all life on our planet. We must protect and restore the natural systems that ensure the balance of our ecosystem, draw carbon from the atmosphere, supply our food, and enable us to thrive. At Perrett Laver, we support organisations in appointing leaders from all corners of the world. We emphasize the importance of leaders who bring authentic voices and lived experience of the impact of climate change, biodiversity loss, and crucially with both innovative, and nature based solutions. We also find leaders who speak truth to power, convene key actors, and collaborate across sectors, identifying and amplifying solutions to the challenges we all face.

Sport’s role in nurturing potential, tackling inequality, and helping generate a sense of pride and cohesion, is more important now than ever. Sport is an essential expression of the values of society and must, in both leadership and governance, represent society fully in all of its rich diversity. Enhancing long term physical and mental health relies on connectivity across sporting infrastructures, and on addressing inequalities in the systems. We partner with the full spectrum of Sports bodies, from grassroots to high performance organisations, as well as the broader physical activity, leisure and education sectors, all collectively harnassing the power of sport as a tool for social good and development.

With each wave of technological advance comes new innovations that were unimaginable just a few decades earlier. Cutting-edge engineers are at the heart of this progress: they are truly the builders of our collective future. We help find leaders in engineering with the vision and expertise to find practical solutions to the world’s problems who conduct vital work developing the technologies of tomorrow.

Information has never been so abundant nor so easily accessible as it is today. That richness of data has the potential to unlock real advances in human progress but also poses difficult questions around privacy and security. We find leaders who are able to push forward the frontiers of human knowledge in this area while always remaining cognisant of the associated risks.

More than 700 million people still live in extreme poverty and are struggling to fulfil the most basic needs such as health education and access to water and sanitation. We have partnered with a number of key organisations addressing these issues to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Perrett Laver seeks to support the leaders of these organisations in achieving their commitment to end poverty in all its forms everywhere.

We appoint leaders for schools and educational organisations who seek the best possible outcomes for people of all backgrounds. We believe in an educational system which values quality choice diversity and autonomy. We advance inclusive and courageous educational leadership focused on continuous innovation and continuous improvement.

In a globalised world that is simultaneously more connected and more fractured than ever an emphasis on equality diversity and inclusion is increasingly important. We at Perrett Laver are committed to building stronger teams and supporting organisational resilience by bringing together diversity of background experience and perspective.

Against a backdrop of increased public and media scrutiny our Global Board Practice is committed to serving institutions in the development of their governance such that they are able to deal with an extraordinary era of change. We understand how important it is that governance in this context is independent inclusive and accountable; whilst at the same time dynamic innovative and bold.

We serve organisations that champion ambitions missions and causes that motivate and engage a diverse range of supporters: be it global foundations high net worth individuals or you and me. Through identifying governance and executive leaders who can be the very best advocates we help you maximise your organisation’s philanthropic potential.

Primary (elementary) and secondary education is expanding and flourishing the world over. With the rapid expansion of the sector through harnassing of technology and developing new models for educational organisations new leaders are required in every time zone and for every culture. We believe that an agile and transnational education system leads to global growth and prosperity. We are committed to finding leaders who are motivated to develop innovative models of education for established and emerging economies.

As defined by SDG 16 advances in ending violence promoting the rule of law strengthening institutions and increasing access to justice are uneven and continue to deprive millions of their security rights and opportunities and undermine the delivery of public services and broader economic development We have partnered with organisations whose work is imperative in providing humanitarian assistance and the building of peaceful just and inclusive societies.
