What we do
Three capabilities. One advisory practice.
Wave brings together senior strategic counsel, AI-powered decision intelligence and human-led communications expertise.
We help leaders decide what to do, understand what the evidence reveals and communicate what comes next.
01Advisory
Strategic Advisory & Transformation
Senior counsel and delivery capability for complex transformation.
We advise governments, institutions and private-sector leaders on complex decisions at the intersection of strategy, policy, technology and organizational change.
Our clients work directly with senior former government officials and advisers who bring first-hand experience of decision-making, institutional leadership and major transformation. We help leaders navigate complexity, align stakeholders and translate ambition into practical action.
Alongside broad strategic and government counsel, we have particular depth in sovereign AI, agentic government and national digital transformation. Our work can extend from initial strategy through institutional design, programme mobilization, implementation oversight and capability transfer.
Government and Executive Advisory
Senior counsel on strategy, policy, public affairs, institutional priorities, market entry and stakeholder alignment.
Sovereign AI and Digital Transformation
Sovereign AI strategy, agentic-government models, digital governance, institutional readiness and the transformation of government operations and public services.
Leadership and Organizational Development
Research-led advisory that strengthens leadership, organizational alignment, decision-making and the institutional capability required to navigate change and deliver strategy.
International Negotiations and Global Advocacy
Support for high-stakes international negotiations, stakeholder diplomacy, coalition building and global advocacy for major national and institutional priorities.
Transformation Design and Delivery
The design and mobilization of the structures required to turn major priorities into measurable results. This includes delivery units, operating models, programme governance, initiative prioritization, cross-institutional teams, executive reporting, performance management and capability transfer.

02Technology
AI & Decision Intelligence
Evidence for decisions that matter.
We combine proprietary AI, advanced research and bespoke technology to help leaders understand markets, audiences, stakeholders, narratives, risks and opportunities before they act.
Our work transforms complex and fragmented information into clear evidence for decisions in strategy, public affairs, market entry and communications.
Opinion Intelligence
Our flagship platform turns real public discourse into actionable intelligence.
It identifies what audiences believe, what drives support or resistance, and which narratives and messages resonate. Organizations can test framings before deployment and track how perceptions shift.
The result is not a snapshot of opinion. It is evidence for what to say next, to whom and why.
Bespoke AI and Decision-Intelligence Systems
We design AI systems, research tools and decision-intelligence platforms around each organization's data, strategic questions and operating environment.
These systems help clients collect and structure information, identify meaningful patterns and turn evidence into decisions that can be acted upon.
Core capabilities
- Decision intelligence
- Opinion Intelligence
- Market and policy intelligence
- Narrative and message testing
- Stakeholder and influence mapping
- Multilingual audience analysis

03Communications
Strategic Communications
Senior counsel for reputation, leadership and moments that matter.
We advise leaders and organizations on how they are positioned, perceived, heard and understood.
Our practice combines traditional communications expertise with AI-augmented audience and narrative intelligence where it adds value. Some engagements rely entirely on senior practitioner judgement; others use Opinion Intelligence to understand perceptions, test messages and measure how audiences respond.
The approach is determined by the objective, the audience and the sensitivity of the engagement.
Reputation, Leadership and Media
Strategic positioning, reputation management, narrative development, media relations, leadership profiling and stakeholder communications.
AI-Augmented Communications Strategy
Audience and narrative analysis, message testing, perception measurement and communications refinement informed by real public response.
Executive and Crisis Communications
Executive speechwriting, spokesperson preparation and crisis communications delivered directly by experienced senior practitioners.
Global Campaigns and Strategic Convenings
Integrated international campaigns and public platforms designed to build visibility, engagement and support around major organizational or national priorities.
Our work includes campaign strategy, programme architecture, speaker curation, session development and moderator preparation.
