Michael L. Giuliani
Politically savvy CEO, public-policy strategist, and non-profit change agent who delivers exceptional results when it matters the most. My three passions in life: family, politics, and leading associations to success. Politics and leadership are like the ultimate chess game: the stakes are high, strategic moves are critical, and you must stay cool in a crisis to win. Above all, you persist. Give me a problem to solve and I won’t let go until all the goals have been met and often exceeded, while saving thousands of dollars in the process. Whether Executive Director of a national public policy non-profit, Chief of Staff for a leading Republican House member, Director of Political and Federal Affairs for a major health insurance trade association or Director of Major Donors for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, I have been able to deliver seemingly impossible results and loved every minute doing it! For example, as Executive Director of a fledgling non-profit, I orchestrated an historic state legislative victory in less than four months. This positioned the start-up as a legislative force to be reckoned with, while saving 15% of the legislative-push budget. My rock-solid dependability, creative use of social media, and “lighting a fire” under grassroots volunteers proved key in boosting visibility and political clout. My career success has been built upon tenacity, cost-efficient strategies, innovative problem-solving, humor, and solid relationships. With an executive leadership style of collaboration and consensus-building, I have created value-added member services, sparked coalitions, and led PAC and non-profit fundraising to record levels. My DC-beltway network includes government agencies, Congressional offices, corporate and small businesses, trade associations, and national non-profits.
