Dovetail as a strategic partner

Dovetail is originally a term from fine carpentry that describes how to join parts together so that they fit perfectly. In negotiation techniques, it has developed into a theory to identify differences in interests and priorities between parties – to make strategic decisions that create value for both parties. Based on this theory, we have built a method for public affairs.

For us, public affairs is about creating political solutions that unite actors and interests into a whole that creates value for politics, our clients and society as a whole. We are a strategic partner that helps our clients understand issues in depth, drive change and build long-term trust.

We are specialists in public affairs and believe in collaboration over full service. Our model is based on the fact that we are experts in our field and collaborate with partner agencies in PR, crisis communication, advertising, branding, business strategy, management and book publishers when that expertise is required. Together, we create tailor-made teams with the right skills to achieve success in the assignment.

At Dovetail Public Affairs, we are advisors with extensive experience from politics, business and civil society. We do not seek the spotlight – our driving force is to create new solutions to political challenges. We don't talk about our clients, but our clients are welcome to talk about us at Dovetail Public Affairs.
