At Arthur D. Little, we support governments and private enterprises across the world to shape the long-term future of their nations, helping them act on key national, strategic and operational priorities for development while remaining ready to deal with disruption. We enable governments to shift their role from operator to facilitator, developing partnerships with the private sector to encourage economic development, outsource delivery of services and build resilience in the face of future threats.
Public sector bodies operate in a world of increasing uncertainty and must balance plans for the future with the need to be ready to meet unexpected external shocks. Local, regional and national governments must adapt their approach, looking beyond their own capacity to deliver services and using every lever of power at their disposal. Those that can act as bridge makers, facilitating public and private partnerships, attracting inward investment and setting the field for progress will make a profound and lasting impact on their citizens.
