Who we are

We advise organizations looking to impact and drive outcomes in arenas of power.

We've led inside the institutions you seek to influence. We know how decisions get made, how they're communicated, and what moves the people making them.

When you work with Plum & Talon, you work directly with senior principals from first conversation to resolution. We help you anticipate shifts, shape outcomes, and move with precision when the moment demands it.

What we do

Four disciplines. One strategy.

01  ·  Government Affairs

Government Affairs

Influence mapping, policy positioning, and legislative and regulatory strategy. We know how decisions get made inside the institutions — and what moves the people making them.

02  ·  Strategic Comms

Strategic Communications

Narrative architecture, message discipline, and reputational strategy. We know how perception forms across audiences — and how to shape it.

03  ·  Transition Advisory

Transition Advisory

Political and leadership transition planning. The organizations that wait for the transition to happen are already 12 months behind.

04  ·  Executive Advisory

Executive Advisory

Senior counsel for leadership teams navigating scrutiny, institutional pressure, or high-stakes inflection points. We don't just advise from the side — we're in the room, sharpening the thinking.

Who we serve

Where government exposure and public visibility create real risk — and real opportunity.

We work with organizations operating where the stakes are institutional and the windows are defined.

  • Growth-stage and scaled companies in regulated markets or launching new technologies
  • Organizations seeking advantage in complex legislative and regulatory environments
  • Companies under oversight, investigation, or narrative pressure — or positioning while a competitor is
  • Organizations navigating political transitions or leadership change
  • Executive teams and boards preparing for high-stakes institutional moments
