Union Bailout Update

The groundswell of blowback against union hubris continues to rise, as both state and national legislators and executives work to reign in Big Labor. As the game of political tug-of-war continues, much of the energy will lapse into rhetoric, but there may be enough momentum now to see some benefit for American businesses come out of the bottom of the funnel.

How To Lose A Union Free Election: Part 2 - Sending the Arsonist to Put Out the Fire

Union free elections are tough to win. Management wins less than 7 out of 10 elections these days. One reason they lose is because of who they choose to deliver the company message.

“Never send the arsonist to put out the fire.” That’s one of my Dad’s favorite lines, and it is great advice in a union free election campaign. In almost every case local managers are the reason the union is there in the first place. Yet many clients rely on them to deliver the company message. This is a great way to lose an election.

Don’t confuse my advice. There is nothing wrong with asking managers to say they regret the union campaign happened, or that they are want to work directly with employees. This is an important part of any winning union free election.

The problem is relying on this group to deliver the entire campaign message.
