Most mergers don’t fail because the strategy is wrong. They fail because no one believes in it.

In this moment, communications isn’t a nice-to-have—it’s survival infrastructure.

I wrote this piece to make the case that philanthropy must move beyond shaping narratives and start resourcing the people who need to own them. That means investing in strategy, building real communications capacity, and preparing organizations to operate in an increasingly hostile environment.
If you’re a funder, nonprofit leader, or advocate trying to navigate this shift, this is for you.

And if your organization is thinking about how to strengthen its narrative strategy, crisis preparedness, or overall communications capacity, my team at Adamec Communications works directly with leaders to build that muscle.

Let’s talk.

This month, my boys and I will be joining my parents in the Walk to End Alzheimer's, and I'm asking for your support.

My family has been affected by this disease more than I care to acknowledge. Years ago, I lost grandparents to the disease. A few years ago, I lost my Aunt Jackie, who was diagnosed at a tragically young age. And just this year, my Aunt Joyce succumbed to Alzheimer's. It is a disease we have lived with as a family for as long as I can remember.

Living with the question - not if, but when and who this disease will afflict - is a horrible way to live, and I'm committed to raising the needed resources to find a cure, so someday, no one will have to endure the "Long Goodbye" again.

I am participating in Walk to End Alzheimer's. Donate today and help me reach my goal.

Don't dismiss Joe Biden's message of unity as happy talk, write Shaun Adamec and Nat Kendall-Taylor. He's pursuing a governing philosophy designed to overcome the relentless stories we hear about a "divided America."

It can be easy to dismiss those who get caught up in conspiracy theories as gullible or misinformed, but in truth, the purveyors of these theories take advantage of the same psychology as any good communicator, even if unwittingly. To guide a conspiracy believer out of the wilderness and back to reality, try employing these time-honored principles of persuasive communications.
