Our Story

Your Needs Have Changed.
So Have We.

When the company was founded over 50 years ago by two Fortune 500 CEOs and a White House staffer, information transferred much more slowly. Printed directories were all clients needed to get in touch with leadership.

Times have changed, and so has the technology we use to find information and communicate with others – inspiring our team to re-think how to connect in a modern and simplified way. These changes led to the creation of Leadership Connect, a vital tool in relationship building for policymakers and professionals nationwide.

Leadership Connect provides solutions for sectors such as:
Government AffairsGovernment ContractorsCongress
People Alerts
