Lobbying and advocacy is about “changing the rules” in government and business, getting rid of bad laws and policies and putting in place good ones to build a sustainable, equitable, and just future. Join this conversation to hear from thought leaders who have been leaders in lobbying for sustainability policy changes to learn how they launched and grew their career, what tips they have for high impact careers creating the field, and what they look for in their new hires. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions of panelists.
