ABOUT US

ANTICIPATION

Vulnerant omnes ultima necat. All hurt, the last one kills. These are the hours. The hours that organisations let pass by by not taking sufficient account of the environment in which they operate. Changes in legislation and local policies are as much opportunities to be seized or encouraged as they are constraints to be anticipated and prevented.

A project can fail because of the involvement of stakeholders, especially elected officials and civil society, was not anticipated and the interest of the project for the territory was not known. Any public decision is preceded by a battle of ideas and therefore, this battle must not be neglected.

TRUST

Building a relationship of trust with its stakeholders must be part of any organization's strategy, and influence communication can transform its relationship with its environment into a strategic lever. This strategy begins with the understanding of the stakeholders' expectations, to then build messages that meet each of these expectations. 

Opinion is built in a trialogue between public authorities, the media and civil society, and it is therefore these three audiences that an influence strategy must address. We believe that every organization, every company, has the right to be advised and defended in the political arena and that it is from the fruitful dialogue with its environment that a common prosperity will be born.

Sacha benhamou

Graduated from lawyer school of Paris and with a masters on International Relations (Hebrew University of Jerusalem), I was a parliamentary assistant to Olivier Véran, MP for Isère and then minister, since 2017, before joining the communication agency CommStrat. As Consulting Director, I advised and supported companies and unions in their influence communication and public affairs strategies, particularly in the health, energy and digital sectors.

In February 2023, I decided to create my own influence strategy consulting firm, Lumen Influence, to help companies build strong ties with institutions and public opinion and create consensus around their projects.
