A For Purpose organisation’s success depends not only on the decisions that its responsible persons make, but also the process by which they make those decisions.
We understand that For Purpose organisations face unique challenges, including managing stakeholder relationships, complying with changing regulations and meeting increasing community expectations.

What you can expect
We know that culture matters
Our team understands that being purpose-driven is only part of what you’re about. How you pursue your purpose matters. Our advice takes stakeholders into account and incorporates communication strategies to help preserve relationships and build support. We tailor our approach to help you achieve your goals in a way that is consistent with your mission and values.
We are trusted advisors, rather than service providers
We do our best work when we get the opportunity to get to know you. Our team regularly meets with and provides training to Boards, Committees and Trustees as well as tools to help you govern well (you can find more information about governance here). We don’t just give you advice or options – we work through a strategic decision making process with you.
We understand the sector from the inside.
Moores has had a dedicated team practicing in For Purpose law for 50 years. We monitor regulatory developments closely and let you know through our newsletters and seminars when changes affect you. Our team members regularly serve in governance roles and understand the unique dynamics of a boardroom.
