The ISG Advantage

Our firm’s name — Integrated Strategy Group — defines our core essence. It reflects our values and mindset as we partner with our clients.

We strongly believe that success comes from integrating all aspects of an initiative to align with a clear purpose; we are huge believers in bringing innovative strategies to the table; and we are great team players and collaborate well with all stakeholders.

The recent legal settlements around opioid abuse have created an unprecedented influx of revenue to state and local governments to combat drug addiction and recovery. To effectively deploy these resources will require a thoughtful alignment of many stakeholders, perspectives, interests, and policy options.

The ISG team is experienced at the federal, state, and local levels in managing large, complex public-private partnerships. We understand how to bring people together in common purpose, maximize the value of each resource in a complementary matrix, and navigate competing interests.

This mission requires smart strategy — both in terms of internal policy implementation and external messaging and communications. Both aspects of this massive undertaking need first-rate thinking and execution. Government officials, the media, business leaders, political activists and the public at large will all be watching how this unfolds. Ultimately, they will in large measure hold the Governor accountable. The buck does stop there. Regardless of how it is being managed now, it is in your interest to keep this on track and running smoothly. Success will only be achieved through changes in how services are currently delivered. Some existing players in the field will feel threatened. New models of treatment and a reallocation of resources will disrupt the status quo. The reluctance to bring for-profit solutions into the mix will have to be overcome. These realities present strategic challenges that need smart, forward-thinking solutions.

The ISG team has experience wearing all the hats around the table — senior government officials, not-for-profit leadership, private sector business executives, political and public affairs management. We can serve as the core hub that designs the macro plan that will deliver positive outcome metrics and consistent targeted messaging that amplifies this success.

There are many fingers in this pot — and understandably so. Some people and organizations have labored long and hard in this field and feel they have earned the right to simply do more of what they have been doing. The truth is despite good intentions and genuine compassion, there are better ways. Bringing about change will require team building, consensus management, and communication skills. A top heavy, outside TN consulting firm “we know it all” attitude will only exacerbate egos and make the job more difficult.

ISG thrives behind the scenes and in the background. We know how to play well in the sandbox. We give others credit and absorb blame. Our interest is solely the success of the mission. That is what motivates us.
