One key to Climate Advisers' success is our work style, which is characterized by the following attributes.

Strategic.  Climate Advisers is able to fuse informed political judgments with substantive policy expertise in ways that yield important and timely insights that form the foundation of successful strategies.  Based on many years of political and practical experience, we are often able to anticipate key developments in U.S. climate policy and international diplomacy.  Our strategic forethought and out-of-the box thinking also allow us to take action at the right time, making Climate Advisers an influential first mover in the U.S. and international climate policy space.

Nimble.  Climate Advisers' flat management structure, lean staffing, thirst for impact and absence of 'legacy' programs enables us to operate with speed and agility.  We adapt quickly to changing political landscapes and adjusts our tactics to maximize results.  The firm's entrepreneurial environment attracts talented, motivated, and energetic leaders and analysts who recognize that client interests are best served by the company's responsive and nimble culture.

Collaborative.  Climate Advisers collaborates with a diverse array of partners -from foundations and advocates to national governments and multilateral development banks.  These domestic and global partnerships enhance the firm's keen understanding of political dynamics, connect the organization to important new communities of influence and increase opportunities for impact.  The firm's expertise, energy, and professionalism enable us to collaborate effectively with others, whether working informally or through structured dialogues among key stakeholders.

Rigorous.  Climate Advisers' policy recommendations and outreach efforts are based on rigorous, independent, and non-partisan research. Our interdisciplinary team has expertise in law, economics, science, and foreign affairs, as well as regional and country-specific specializations. The firm places as much emphasis on careful, in-depth analysis as it does on creativity and political savvy.  As a consequence, the Climate Advisers brand is respected as a source of impartial, accurate information.
