Most advocacy efforts don’t fail because of lack of effort.

They fail because strategy, messaging, and ex*****on are not aligned.

These elements often exist in isolation—but they only work when they operate together.

When alignment happens, outcomes become achievable. When it doesn’t, even strong efforts fall short.

Alignment is what turns strategy into impact.

We’re now accepting applications for the Concordia Group Summer Internship Program.

This is a selective, hands-on program designed for individuals who want real exposure to how work gets done across strategy, public affairs, operations, and production.

Interns are not on the sidelines—they participate in meetings, contribute to active projects, and take ownership of real deliverables.

✔ Direct access to leadership
✔ Real client exposure
✔ High expectations and meaningful responsibility
✔ Capstone project presented to leadership

If you’re looking for something more than a traditional internship, we encourage you to apply.

Not every issue is straightforward.

The most important challenges often involve multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, and constantly evolving narratives.

That’s why strategy matters.

We help organizations navigate complexity and move important issues forward through thoughtful advocacy and communication.

As Concordia enters its 19th year, we are excited to share that we have relocated our headquarters to Dentons Tower in downtown Des Moines.

When we began evaluating our next chapter, we approached it the same way we approach our work, thoughtfully, strategically, and with a long term lens. We looked at multiple options across the metro. In the end, it became clear that downtown Des Moines is where Concordia needs to be for the next phase of our growth.

Over nearly two decades, our work has expanded well beyond where we started. Today, Concordia supports clients across Iowa and throughout the country in public affairs, strategic communications, advocacy, and direct marketing. As our reach and responsibilities continue to grow, so too must the environment that supports our team and the partners we serve.

Downtown sits at the intersection of business, government, agriculture, finance, and innovation, the sectors where we operate every day. Being in the core of the city strengthens our proximity to decision makers, collaborators, and institutions shaping policy and industry both regionally and nationally.

Over the coming months, we will be building out a permanent headquarters designed to reflect the scale and ambition of our work. The new space will be modern, collaborative, and built to support the next era of Concordia, with room to grow.

This move is not simply about a new address. It represents continued investment, in our people, in our clients, and in the long term vitality of downtown Des Moines.

Concordia was founded here. We have grown here. And we are proud to continue building here.

We look forward to welcoming clients, partners, and friends to our new home.
