Design to Win hidden

Most lobbying, advocacy and communication doesn't work.

Politicians may agree with your argument in the morning, but when they see your opponent in the afternoon, they agree with him.  Who do they really side with?  Why?

• Politicians privately support your view of your issue, but then feel unable to side with you publicly. You are right, but you still lose.

• You win your case in the regulatory system but lose through customer deselection in the market.

• You run an excellent public campaign, but national interests and opaque discussions in the Council of Ministers, or contributions in Congress, swing the outcome.

Whether you have a valuable part of your business to protect, an emerging business that is being blocked by entrenched interests or have growth goals to protect, the old lobbying world of who you know is no longer sufficient.

Harwood Levitt Consulting has brought together a team of former lobbyists, political operatives and NGO campaigners based upon their track record of winning major issues.  Our focus is around the concept of Design to Win, forming a campaign based on what it will take to win your issue.

We work with clients to build the plan, and to build the team to implement.  We have deliberately built a team that doesn't offer to do everything itself, but focuses on our client's best interests to use the best implementing agencies and other experts in their fields.
