A short selection of my some of the books that I think are the best in their area.
Campaigning
Chris Rose and Saul Alinsky are bibles.
Luntz and Lakoff help you think better and differently.
Issenberg shows your power of technology for campaigns.
Influence
Cialdini’s work on influencing is a most read.
You’ll be at least 10x more effective as a lobbyist if you read his work, and 100x times better if you apply his recommendations.
Classics on learning key skills
As a lobbyist, you’ll need to digest a lot of writing, listen (most do this badly) , speak, and learn a lot of new things quickly. These three books show you how.
Public Policy Analysis
Some excellent books to understand how policy is made and how laws gets passed. All American. The American public policy writing is richer and more practical than Europeans writers.
The dangers of fascism
Powerful reminders of the dangers of fascism.
