How to Build an Advocacy Team that will Take You to New Levels of Impact and Success - Episode 15

How to Build an Advocacy Team that will Take You to New Levels of Impact and Success - Episode 15

If you don’t have the advocacy results you want, and you don’t have an advocacy team, there may be a cause and effect relationship there.  Strategic relationship building touches everything you do, and without a well-functioning team working on those relationships in coordinated fashion, things fall through the cracks, balls get dropped, and progress slows or stalls.  Having a solid advocacy team in place makes your strategic relationship and influence building work progress faster, more efficiently, and gets better results sooner.  But you need to build the right team, and make sure you set them up for success.

In this episode, we’ll reveal:

  • What not having an advocacy team is costing you 
  • Why you need an advocacy team even if you have a dedicated policy or government affairs staffperson
  • The 5 people you want on your advocacy team
  • The 6 key ingredients for advocacy team success
  • The biggest stumbling blocks for new advocacy teams, and how to avoid them

If you found value in this episode, I would be grateful if you would leave a rating and review to help other nonprofit leaders find the show.  And tell you friends and colleagues to give it a listen.
