Educating Bar Association and Government Leaders About Government
Relations (2002)
Education plays a vital role in any government relations program.
Maximizing the success of one’s advocacy agenda means shaping
effective spokespersons to carry your message while empowering the
legislature to make well-informed decisions. Similarly, the continuation
of education as government relations professionals is instrumental
in maintaining a necessary edge in the marketplace.
Nuts and Bolts of a Grassroots Program (2001)
With government and politics ever-changing, a grassroots connection
to legislators is of primary importance. Regardless of your organization’s
direction, the end goal is the same. You want to recruit, communicate
effectively on issues, provide on-going education, mobilize, and
activate to affect the issues at hand. While this may require staff
and resources, there is no substitute for having informed and respected
constituents to speak on behalf of your issues.
