Dan Black
Vice President
dan@lotsixteen.comAt the Lot:
The biggest mistake I see clients make is ceding control of their own story. Whether shaping policy or shifting the media landscape, every company or coalition must maintain control of their own narrative. To do that effectively, I help them understand where they have leverage, find their authenticity and choose their words wisely. In this business, I know that every moment matters, whether you’re drafting legislation, crafting a statement or capturing attention on social media.
My areas of focus include…
- Integrating Government and Public Relations
- Strategic Communications
- Energy, Technology, Transportation and Health Care Policy Advocacy
- Coalition Building
