Advisory for transformation, grounded in practice.
At the Global Advisory Alliance (GAA), sustainability is not just a service we deliver to clients — it is also a principle we apply to our own way of working. As a decentralised network of senior advisors, we are structured to reduce environmental impact while maximising collective impact.
Our advisors work remotely, avoiding the daily commute and the resource intensity of large corporate offices. By design, this reduces emissions tied to commercial real estate, energy use, and transportation.
We prioritise digital collaboration tools over physical travel, enabling seamless cross-border work without unnecessary flights or meetings. Where in-person interaction is essential, we plan carefully to combine engagements and minimise travel footprints.
We use secure digital platforms to collaborate, share knowledge, and co-develop solutions across geographies. This digital-first approach cuts down on paper, logistics, and travel while fostering real-time collaboration among advisors and clients worldwide.
As we grow, we will explore ways to measure and offset residual emissions, ensuring that the way we operate reflects the same net zero ambition we encourage our clients to adopt.
Our operational footprint is intentionally lean, but we remain committed to continuous improvement. Current areas of alignment with net zero include:
GAA advisors are deeply engaged in helping companies and investors transition toward sustainable business models. We believe our own operational choices should mirror that commitment. By combining decentralised work, digital collaboration, and conscious travel, we aim to be a consultancy alliance that lives its values while helping others transform.
