HSP specializes in simplifying complexity, uncovering shared priorities, and crafting compelling narratives that build trust and foster collaboration.

 

Our approach is authenticity-first: understanding who you are as an organization and your unique opportunities and challenges in the community where you operate. We analyze the needs and concerns of outside stakeholders so you can make smart and creative decisions. HSP also develops strategies and tactics as turn-key deliverables, or we will partner with your in-house team to get the job done. We are adept at crafting well-researched situation briefs to understand the lay of the land, and providing training in strategic storytelling, focusing your message, working with the media, and preparing for an interview.

​

At HSP we reveal and strengthen the potential and existing connections across community pillars like higher education, tourism, local governments, elected and civic leaders, and the business community. These are complex organizations with both common and competing interests. Hooker Strategy Partners helps you navigate the relationships, translating between the stakeholder “languages” and interests, revealing opportunities and fostering collaboration.

HSP enables and jumpstarts meaningful partnerships.
