What's been keeping me busy? I recently finished a project with a long-time client, the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, which partnered with the Charles Koch Foundation to launch the Center for Advancing Opportunity. CAO is an-HBCU based educational research organization that is studying the barriers to opportunity in criminal justice, education and business. Among other things, my team helped promote CAO's first State of Opportunity in America Summit in Washington DC in February and led the development and launch of the organization's new website.

Happy Friday! And welcome to my page. There's not much here yet, as I have just created this page to be the site for my consulting business, Neal Communication Strategies LLC. I'm going to use this less as a platform for direct marketing and selling things than a place share ideas, thoughts and musings about the intersection of media, business and politics.

My market is a marketplace of ideas. That's not for everyone. And that's ok.

As most of you know, I was a journalist for many years, most of that time spent at the Washington Post. For the last decade or so, I've been advising some of the country's biggest corporations, non-profits, U.S. government agencies and sovereign nations on media strategies (earned and social), crisis communications, public affairs strategies, etc. Most recently, I was a principal at the Podesta Group until the firm dissolved in November.

The ideas expressed on this page are my own. I will never expect everyone to agree with everything I say. I'll only ask that the conversation remain civil and professional. Criticize, disagree, but no name calling.

More importantly, if you need help with any of the range of comms/PR competencies, give me a shout.

I'll be weighing in soon with some thoughts on Facebook, fake news and surviving in the rough and tumble digital landscape.

Stay tuned. More TK!
