Specific skill-sets are required to ensure clients thrive and Empowered. works closely with the leading executive search agency within this space.

growth
It is widely acknowledged that high performance sport requires significant investment to reach the heights of championship titles, medals and global excellence. However the true impact of sport and active well-being is strongest within non-performance environments.
There are significant challenges to access and engagement for many, and targeted interventions are required to overcome such barriers.
This is often overlooked within high-level strategies and our experience shows that such areas of delivery are rarely prioritised within consultants’ guidance.
The increasingly visible profile of performance and professional sport provides invaluable opportunity to inspire others through success, generate pride through representation of local communities & nations and create new possibilities for the leaders of the future.
Empowered. addresses this gap in provision and focuses on less traditional areas of sport investment through community engagement and growth.
Global markets are continually evolving and align with the emergence of new sectors cultures expectations and ambitions.
We focus on exploring harder to reach opportunities often within overlooked communities and markets. We offer clients unique introductions to experts in this space and we create opportunities to connect with the relevant industry leads that share client core vision, values and interests.
​
When working within less explored regions there is additional challenge regarding global perception of investment and the pursuit of growth.
Empowered. advise clients on country activity that supports the initial stages of an investment journey providing value to the community they wish to engage with.
Clients secure positive profile and buy-in alongside delivering real world social impact and change.
At our core, we have leadership based within education and access a global network of key institutions that can provide research & development, evaluation and impact assessment opportunities for our clients.

beyond place
We create connections.
We celebrate the rich cultures of the world, understanding that who we are is often defined by where we are from and where we call home.
We support connectivity across cultures, regions and communities.
We share the beauty of diversity across our networks, creating opportunities for growth ensuring that our clients are positioned optimally with organisations and populations that share vision and ambition.
Many countries and cultures are yet unknown, undiscovered and, often, misunderstood. We educate and inform on current developments and pathways into the future.
We empower you to create an identity to share with the world and empower your communities to be the face of your future.
Sport is only the beginning and in many of these markets it is simply the most visible opportunity.
However, we explore an expansion of connections to include broader relationships across sectors such as health, culture, education and tourism.
We create programs to best represent and showcase the potential for growth and profile within each collaboration, including cross-market campaigns, events and insights.
Our team of international experts, provide unrivalled access to cultural exchange, partnerships and empowered global expansion.

community
