People

Stratia

Stratia was founded by directors Louise Haskins and Dianne Nott.

Co-director Haskins has previously worked as Head of Marketing Communications "within the politically challenging world of the nuclear industry", where she "managed scores of projects to time and budget including the international re-branding of BNFL in the mid 1990s and production of all statutory annual reports". She founded Oyster PR in 2002 and is co-director of Stratia Ltd.

Senior associate Colin Duncan was a former director of corporate communications at BNFL for 10 years and also Rolls-Royce Aero Engines for three years. He has "Managed all aspects of stakeholder engagement for large and complex international organisations for most of my career".[3]

Colleague Louise Smith works on 'Stakeholder Engagement & Issues Management'. She "has immense experience in international issues management, particularly for controversial industries. In 1996 Louise headed up a two-year communications and issues management programme associated with the decommissioning of disused offshore oil & gas platforms, at a difficult time following the Shell UK Brent Spar affair in June 1995. She continued as an independent consultant for the international oil and gas and chemical industries and since then has advised large organisations on strategic communications including issues management, reputation risk management and stakeholder engagement".
