Prevail Communications Advisors helps clients harness every aspect of strategic communications to support democratic transition, reform, and social and political resilience.
Prevail builds on the eleven-year legacy of Mason Change Communications. Its principals, Whit Mason and Stacia Philips, bring decades of experience in strategic communications with the United Nations, the governments of the United Kingdom, United States, and Australia, as well as senior executive roles in international media. Our work has shaped national narratives during times of transformation, crisis, and opportunity — guiding leaders, governments, and organisations towards lasting trust, unity, and progress — in the Balkans, Europe, the Middle East, South and South-East Asia, and the United States. We are currently advising the Interim Government of Bangladesh on behalf of the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
Together with our elite network of global advisers and practitioners, we provide unmatched strategic guidance — grounded in deep expertise, operational agility, and cultural fluency. Our approach is collaborative, discreet, adaptive, and always aligned with our clients’ unique circumstances and objectives.
Prevail’s approach to transformational communication goes beyond messaging: it is about understanding information environments and communities, building trust, and fostering inclusive conversations. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with leaders to anticipate challenges and design strategies that cut through the noise.
If you need to understand and influence perceptions and behaviours — whether to withstand a crisis, seize an opportunity, or drive progress — call upon Prevail’s unparalleled experience and expertise to help guide your way.
