Stakeholder Management

CLF Ventures helps clients optimize their stakeholder relationships with regulators, community groups and elected officials. CLFV staff is adept at understanding the complex social and environmental contexts around controversies. We have combined this skill with our technical expertise to develop a respected practice in resolving community-based conflicts around environmental issues. We solve our clients' problems by leveraging our environmental reputation and non-profit status to build a positive relationship between our clients and the larger stakeholder community.

Critical Relationship Management
    CLF Ventures optimizes the relationship between our clients and their key stakeholders.

    We build trust and legitimacy for our clients by:
    • Leveraging our environmental protection reputation and non-profit status to build relationships with stakeholders;
    • Utilizing existing relationships with local, state and federal regulatory and political stakeholders;
    • Creating new and unique lines of communication with the stakeholder community;
    • Gaining access to bottom-line stakeholder preferences; and
    • Compiling and translating this new information back to our client to enable them to make better-informed business decisions.
Friction Point Analysis
    CLF Ventures helps clients identify and manage 'friction points' -- issues that, if gone unchecked, can cause the most damage to project goals and objectives. CLF Ventures uses friction point analysis to align stakeholder interests, create a collective vision, and produce a positive outcome. Our organization has both the technical competence and facilitation skills to help move stakeholder negotiations forward in ways that can minimize delays and negative outcomes. The bottom line is a reduction on project risk for our clients.
