Welcome to NSBA's Leadership Council

Your commitment to small business is among the top 1 percent of NSBA's membership - a stronger voice standing together for our community. 

Working from your home, community coffee shop, or out of your office, sharing your involvement with NSBA's Leadership Council is a strong way to spread the word for our small-business advocacy in Washington and across the country. 

Working from Home
Patrick Post - Vice President of Membership

We're glad you're here for Small Business.  
Big time. 

Hi, there.  My name is Pat Post - Senior Vice President of Membership at NSBA.  Your small-business story is vital to our efforts of improving policy for small-business opportunities. If you have questions concerning your membership, please reach out to me any time at: ppost@nsba.biz

You may also schedule a one-on-one onboarding meeting with Ian Elsenbach, Manager of Member Outreach, via his calendar here.

Getting Down to (Small) Business

Each month, NSBA holds a Leadership Council orientation, where new members can learn about our advocacy efforts and your role in promoting the needs of small business.

 

NSBA also holds a monthly networking meeting exclusively for our Leadership Council, where you can tell everyone about yourself and your business, as well as meet with other small-business leaders from across the country.

Your Insight is Invaluable

NSBA is frequently quoted in the news and is a go-to source for Congress and other research groups.  For this reputation, Leadership Council members can expect periodic requests for outreach with your Members of Congress on high priority issues.  We also have frequent requests from the media where we reach out to the Council to see if someone fits the request.
