About us

Today, we expect more from businesses, institutions, and government, but confidence in those same organizations is extremely low. And for those organizations working to solve our world’s biggest problems the expectations and social risk have never been higher with consequences ranging from critical funding not being secured, projects being suspended or significantly delayed, fierce community opposition, to long-term brand damage.

Darzin Software, headquartered in Sydney, Australia was founded nearly three decades ago with the sole purpose to enable an easier way to engage and manage stakeholder relationships by leveraging the power of the cloud, and now AI. Our founder & CEO Allison Hendricks’ passion for stakeholder engagement goes back to the 1990’s where she saw first-hand that there had to be a better way. An engineer with formal business training, she’s worked for some of the biggest names in the business building a knowledge base of how-to better map and engage stakeholders. Her passion and commitment resulted in our first enterprise product “Darzin” that continues to evolve today through active customer feedback and innovation.

The rest of our team have pedigrees to match with leadership based in the US, Canada, the UK and plans to expand around the world. As a team we have vast experience not only in stakeholder relationship management (SRM), but more importantly how to apply best practice SRM in the industries of renewable energy, mining, oil & gas, government, consulting, health care and utilities to create positive outcomes. Our culture is built on valuing every employee, customer and partner and DE&I is foundational to who we are. We operate using agile principles in a highly collaborative environment and are active listeners.

As a company built on actively listening to our customers, our customers have shared with us that their frustration with spreadsheets and modifying CRM’s creates pain points and chaos with even the basic steps like having control and visibility across all your stakeholder contacts, importance mapping, who is contacting them, when, and what about. In direct response to that feedback, we built our newest product Simply Stakeholders to make it even easier to manage, create visibility and engage in a smarter way. Now we are pleased to offer you a full suite of services to help you be your most effective in engaging with stakeholders.

Every day we wake up motivated to help our customers and partners advance their stakeholder relationship capabilities, build expertise, and achieve their goals.
