Influence Architects
At Xiphos Strategies, we aren’t just advisors or lobbyists. We are influence architects who specialize in building the policy strategy and advocacy infrastructure that organizations need to lead with confidence—not just react. Whether you’re advancing a cause, scaling a business, or shaping your industry, we turn complexity into clear, durable strategy that works in the real world.
Our team guides clients through the full arc of policymaking—legislative, regulatory, and administrative. We design and execute tailored strategies, provide real-time monitoring and policy analysis, manage coalitions and relationships, and strengthen the internal systems that power lasting influence.
We’ve supported nonprofits, startups, philanthropies, and national coalitions alike—and we know what it takes to move from vision to impact. We don’t just get you to the table. We help you build the scaffolding to stay there, grow your influence, and lead from a position of strength.
When others see fragmentation, we design cohesion. And when the pressure’s on, our campaigns don’t just hold—they perform.
Xiphos Strategies
Whether you’re entering a new market or state, starting policy work for the first time, or looking to enhance your current government relations work, Xiphos Strategies can help.
Policy Analysis & Monitoring
We track and interpret the policy landscape in real time so you don’t have to. From legislative proposals and regulatory changes to agency rulemaking and administrative guidance, we offer plain-language insights tailored to your priorities. You’ll receive ongoing updates, actionable summaries, and strategic interpretation—not just what’s happening, but what it means for you.
Whether you need live bill tracking, end-of-session analysis, or proactive risk assessment, we provide clear, timely information so you can lead with confidence—not play catch-up.
Strategy & Advocacy Design
Your mission deserves more than generic messaging or reactionary tactics.
We help you define your objectives, align them with real-world policy levers, and develop a plan that works—from blueprint to implementation. Our work spans legislative strategy, ballot and regulatory initiatives, communications and narrative development, and coalition coordination.
We don’t just write plans—we execute them. That means helping you build relationships, positioning your voice in the right rooms, and leading advocacy efforts that actually move the needle.
Capacity & Infrastructure Building
Effective policy work needs a strong foundation.
We help organizations build the internal systems, staffing, and technology they need to sustain and scale their influence. That includes recruiting and onboarding policy professionals, integrating CRMs and advocacy platforms, conducting policy audits, and creating compliant legal and operational frameworks.
Whether you’re a startup navigating new regulations or a seasoned advocacy shop looking to level up, we build the backbone to support your long-term success.
