This was before he became the President of Mexico, when he was still the governor of his home state of Guanajuato. I hadn’t intended for it to be a private meeting. It was 1999, and I was running the youth portion of an an annual meeting of civil society organisations called The World Social Forum in San Francisco. Vicente had spoken one afternoon and I was very moved by what he had to say. In my youth I was obsessed with the spotlight of fame and desired to be anywhere near it. I convinced myself (correctly as it would turn out) that this man would become the President of Mexico one day andI began wondering about how I could have a conversation with him. I was friends with Claire Garrison, the wife of Jim Garrison, who ran The World Social Forum. I didn’t think Vicente would agree to meet with me alone, but he might agree to meet with me if the other young people were there. As well as if Claire was there, who I knew he was close to. So, I approached Claire and said, “Claire! All of the youth are having breakfast together tomorrow and we were wondering if you’d like to join us?” She was delighted to be invited. The rest of the youth knew nothing about this, yet. I then approached Vicente. “Mr. Fox,” I said, “the youth and Claire are having breakfast tomorrow and I’m wondering if you might join us?” “Well, I wouldn’t have long because I have a flight to catch but certainly I could spare half an hour.” “Wonderful! Let’s meet in the lobby of the Fairmont at 9am.” The deal was struck and I marched off to share this fine development with the rest of the youth in the program. They mostly nodded and agreed to be there. “This is great!” they said. “Thanks for setting it up!” they said. Some declined, and a few pointed out that because it was the last night of the Forum it was a big party night and, well, they’d have to see how they felt in the morning. But, after an evening of hustling, I felt confident that I’d rustled up enough fellow young people to make it worth everyone’s while. The next morning, I made my way to the lobby to see Vicente waiting for me with no other young people around. Claire was nowhere to be seen either. After a few minutes, my stomach dropped as I realized that no one else was coming. I told him, “I am so sorry. I think everyone is hungover. I think I’m it.” And so we sat and talked for thirty minutes about leadership and the world. Towards By Tad Hargrave marketingforhippies.com !5 Hub Marketing the end, as the good Governor Fox was leaving, Claire arrived and we wandered off to breakfast together. * “Where do I find clients? Where do I advertise?” This plaintive cry lands at my doorstep all too often. Of course, all of this starts with your niche, which I’ve written about extensively in my book The Niching Nest. Your niche is this strange constellation of what you do, how you do it and for whom. You niche is your role in the community. One of the central questions that niching asks of us is: Who are your people? Until this is identified, the above question about where to find customers remains impossible to answer. In the world of word-of-mouth marketing, we have a name for the places where you can find your people. They are called hubs. Why? Well, consider the wheel: the hub of the wheel is the only point on the wheel where all of the spokes connect. And so, in the marketplace, in the centre, hubs to market to are the places where your target market hangs out and connects with each other. Hubs are the centre of your niche’s world. They are very, very important. My definition of hub marketing: • Hub marketing is about putting your marketing where people are already looking and listening. • Hub marketing is about finding the people, places, groups and events that are already well connected to and deeply respected by your ideal clients and marketing there. • Hub marketing is about getting the people your ideal clients trust most to do your marketing for you. Hub marketing is one of the core things that I teach in my marketing workshops. hub marketing is not a new idea, but it’s often new to those with whom I work. By Tad Hargrave marketingforhippies.com !6 Hub Marketing Out of everything that I teach, hub marketing is one of the pieces that people consistently tell me is most useful and practical. hub marketing has four things going for it: 1. Hub marketing is an approach to marketing that is less expensive, and sometimes even free. 2. Hub marketing is also more effective than other forms of marketing. Much more effective, and not just by 10 or 20 per cent but sometimes two, three or ten times more effective as an approach to marketing. 3. Hub marketing feels better to do. 4. Hub marketing feels better to receive. I’ve been baffled for years about why this isn’t shared in more marketing courses. hub marketing is one of the magical things about marketing. A good question to ask of our marketing, as my colleague George Kao suggested: “Whenever you’re about to try an approach — some technique, some tactic — ask yourself, ‘If everybody in the marketplace used this approach, what would happen to the marketplace?’” Of course, we can see the results of that all around us. The ways that we mistrust certain people, and even within this conscious business scene, there’s a mistrust and a suspicion because certain techniques get used a lot. There are consequences to what we do. Hub marketing is an approach that, if everyone did it, the marketplace would actually, in my mind, be a much more trustworthy and safe place for people to be working, buying, exchanging, and sharing in. To give credit where it’s due, I first came across this notion of hub marketing through Jay Abraham. The way he talked about it was as Host/Parasite Marketing, later changed to what he called Host/Beneficiary Marketing (meaning that one person was the one with the connections and the other person benefitted from those connections). hub marketing also appears often as joint ventures or strategic ventures In this scenario, you’d ask yourself which businesses you could partner with that are already connected to your people? But the term “hubs” came to my art from Dominic Canterbury from Seattle.

  • Women, Agency, and the State in Guinea
    Women, Agency, and the State in Guinea This book examines how women in Guinea articulate themselves politically within and outside institutional politics. It documents the everyday practices that local female actors adopt to deal with the continuous economic, political, and social insecurities that emerge in times of political transformations. Carole Ammann argues that women’s political articulations in Muslim Guinea do not primarily take place within women’s associations or institu- tional politics such as political parties; but instead women’s silent forms of politics manifest in their daily agency, that is, when they make a living, study, marry, meet friends, raise their children, and do household chores. The book also analyses the relationship between the female population and the local authorities, and discusses when and why women’s claim making enjoys legiti- macy in the eyes of other men and women, as well as representatives of ‘tra- ditional’ authorities and the local government. Paying particular attention to intersectional perspectives, this book will be of interest to scholars of African studies, social anthropology, political anthropology, the anthropology of gender, urban anthropology, gender stu- dies, and Islamic studies.

Reiff, Chair This dissertation appraises the role of white, middle-class businessmen as engineers of urban development, assessing the complexity of individual and group reactions to an array of economic, political, social, and environmental stimuli that residents of Kansas faced between 1870 and 1929 using Abilene, Wichita, and Dodge City as case studies. I explore the social dynamics that evolved among these local businessmen – as well as with other townspeople and those who lived outside their communities – to consider how these social interactions affected each town’s urban aspirations. This study traces the process of town-building from its inception when Abilene, Wichita, and Dodge City became cattle towns; through the towns’ transition into commercial centers during the boom of the 1880s; their struggles to negotiate the agricultural and economic depression of the 1890s; and their resurgence in the early 1900s.

  • Influencing American Health Policy: an Analysis of The
    ABSTRACT POLITICAL SCIENCE JEAN-LOUIS, ANGELA L. B.A. UNIVERSITY OF WEST GEORGIA, 1992 M.P.A. UNIVERSITY OF WEST GEORGIA, 1996 INFLUENCING AMERICAN HEALTH POLICY: AN ANALYSIS OF THE ROLE OF NATIONAL BLACK WOMEN-LED ORGANIZATIONS Committee Chair: William Boone, Ph.D. Dissertation dated May 2017 Through a multiple case study approach, this dissertation outlined patterns of activism, examined the factors that assist in decision-making strategies used for the political mobilization of black women, and assessed the role and influence their organizations have in the health policy arena. Building on the belief that the intersectionality of race, gender, and class guides the activism of black women, the study acknowledges the importance of analyzing the political conditions of black women that are different from black men and white women. Furthermore, the research offered an argument for the need of a theoretical framework that provides a multidimensional analysis of black women’s political representation. For that reason, the theory developed in this study was a Black Women’s Activism Theoretical Framework. Expanding on black feminist thought, the framework reveals ways in which black female activists have mobilized for self-representation and building of their own collective self, vision, and voice. i A mixed research method and holistic case studies of five national black women- led organizations in the areas of breast cancer, cardiovascular disease, and HIV/AIDS were applied. The qualitative data were quantified, coded, and placed on outcome, legislative, and perception success scales to gauge the level of successfulness achieved by the organizations from 2001 to 2015. The data were analyzed with a Black Women’s Activism model.

THE NASHVILLE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT: A STUDY OF THE PHENOMENON OF INTENTIONAL LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND ITS CONSEQUENCES FOR LOCAL MOVEMENTS AND THE NATIONAL CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AT GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY by BARRY EVERETT LEE Under the Direction of Jacqueline A. Rouse ABSTRACT The Nashville Civil Rights Movement was one of the most dynamic local movements of the early 1960s, producing the most capable student leaders of the period 1960 to 1965. Despite such a feat, the historical record has largely overlooked this phenomenon. What circumstances allowed Nashville to produce such a dynamic movement whose youth leadership of John Lewis, Diane Nash, Bernard LaFayette, and James Bevel had no parallel? How was this small cadre able to influence movement developments on local and a national level? In order to address these critical research questions, standard historical methods of inquiry will be employed.
