Author bio

I've worked for 25 years in 47 states and Washington DC helping NGOs, corporations and associations influence politicians and public policy. I help them recruit, motivate and activate members to lobby. My keynotes, seminars, video and books are based on research into why people do and don't get involved in legislative lobbying. I consult to help you use money, media, members and professional lobbying staff to maximum impact in a moral, legal and ethical framework.
And whatever we do, we always have fun.
