A timely, humorous and engaging tour-de-force of political commentary that is a must read for anyone interested in politics, journalism and the art of opinion writing.

Without it you won’t get very far. Navigator works with companies, organizations, athletes, artists, and non-profits to elevate public perceptions and communicate with key stakeholders.
