Our Model

SXD Leadership Communications Ltd was formed to help companies with a Caribbean footprint develop a more rigorous approach to integrating an external perspective into business strategy and action.

The Guiding Principles that Shape the Work of SXD


We offer bespoke and tailored solutions - one size does not fit all in external strategies

  • Analysis based on thorough multi-disciplinary research and data-rich insights,

  • The business agenda sits at the core of our analysis – we seek to understand the outside perspective from the needs of the business,

  • Providing an independent and balanced perspective and insight is considered critical to our work– and it is vigorously defended,

  • SXD operates based on ethical practice,

  • Projects are delivered by including diverse perspectives and ‘ways of thinking’ in solution development.

We prioritise co-created external strategies led by business leadership.

The SXD External Management Frame – Access and Influence



We work within a framework that helps the firm consider the “art and science” of relationships and relationship-building.

The SXD Model of Engagement focuses on the twin objectives of “Access” and “Influence”.

The SXD Service Offer

When leaders want a trusted external advisor “on call” as questions and situations arise, rather than starting a new piece of work each time.

Retainer

When there is a defined need – for example, a landscape review, stakeholder mapping, an issue strategy, or support around a major project or negotiation.

When a leader needs help to think through one situation: a high‑stakes meeting, a board discussion, a speech, or a short external sounding.
