Episode 12: All the Worst Humans
For decades, companies and industries relied on their Washington lobbyists and trade associations to lead their influence efforts.
But Trump doesn’t like talking to lobbyists and trade association chiefs.
Trump wants to skip the middleman and go right to the CEO.
That’s required CEOs to take on a new and sometimes uncomfortable role: Chief Advocacy Officer.
On this week’s edition of The Wolves of K Street Podcast, former Trump White House advisor Joe Grogan talks about Trump’s preference to talking directly to CEOs.
Grogan explains how the president’s direct outreach to CEOs – which often takes place after midnight on his cell phone – changes how the White House functions – and how the influence business works.
