Thinking. Results.

Home

Mannion is a consultancy that helps businesses and organisations build awareness, manage reputational risk and support business growth.

Over the last nine years we have provided communication advice and work to a range of government and private sector clients including two of the world’s top three America’s Cup teams, several growing technology-based businesses and start-ups, publicly-listed companies and some of New Zealand’s top universities and research institutes.

We tend to take a strategic rather than a tactical view, and are highly committed to delivering results for our clients. Our team includes senior consultants who have been recognised as leaders in their fields in New Zealand and Australia, but we operate a small, flexible structure that allows us to provide personal oversight and cost-effective implementation. We work successfully in providing long-term consultancy support and also on one-off projects and challenging assignments.

Many thanks for sending this through and for your excellent work today. I am most grateful and I think that we made the best of a very difficult situation.
