In today’s business environment, opportunity and risk are comingled — often you don’t get one without the other.
Organizations are expected to grow in increasingly complex markets while managing rising uncertainty: shifting customer expectations, evolving regulations, reputational vulnerability, stakeholder scrutiny, and rapid technology change. For many leaders, the challenge isn’t about making progress. You’re expected to do it confidently with long-term value in mind.
That’s why Dix & Eaton is excited to introduce Grow and Protect — an integrated solutions framework designed to help organizations accelerate growth, manage risk, and safeguard trust and enterprise value.
Why Grow and Protect — and why now?
Over the past few years, the market has made one thing clear: sustainable, scalable success requires both offense and defense. Growth strategies break down without trust. And risk management can’t operate effectively without a strong understanding of what the organization is trying to build.
Grow and Protect reflects this reality as well as our evolution following Dix & Eaton’s acquisition of Standing Partnership in 2023. Together, we now bring a powerful combination of capabilities that help clients grow intentionally and protect what they’ve built.
Grow and Protect brings together two complementary platforms:
- Grow (under the Standing Partnership brand) focuses on helping clients scale through insight-driven marketing, sales enablement, partner/channel ecosystems, and alliance development.
- Protect (under the Dix & Eaton brand) helps organizations anticipate and manage risk through risk intelligence, sustainability/ESG, issues management, stakeholder engagement, and crisis readiness, supported by the Anticipate, Engage, Mitigate (AEM) approach.
Together, these platforms help leaders connect strategy with resilience and translate both into measurable business outcomes.
We’ve always believed that the strongest organizations don’t simply respond to change — they anticipate it, adapt quickly, and act with clarity. Grow and Protect is designed to do just that: help clients build growth engines that can scale while strengthening the systems, intelligence, and preparedness that protect reputation, trust, and enterprise value.
If you’d like to learn more about Grow and Protect or explore how it could drive momentum and resilience for your organization, we’d welcome a conversation.
