    "You are a truly inspirational speaker and I really found your book quite
    useful. It's about time someone has written a manual for organizers."
    Thomas Mulholland
    Business Representative
    Insulators Local 2


    "I recently purchased your book “Bigger Labor” and thought it was one
    of the most down to earth, user friendly field guides in construction
    organizing. I have already recommended it to several other organizers."

      "Great news, I just found out this evening that I got the organizing        
      position. I can't tell you enough how helpful you were. This book is
      just what I was looking for."
      Much appreciation,
      Lynette Jones


      "Oedy's no nonsense, practical breakdown of the art of organizing in
      the construction industry is an essential tool and a must-have for any
      organizer who is serious about creating positive change."

    "This is pure meat and potatoes! It’s exactly the book I wish someone
    had given me when I started organizing."

    "With the length of the learning curve for an organizer this book can be
    an indispensable tool to acquiring the know-how necessary to be an
    effective union activist."
    Eddie Gering
    Organizer, Las Vegas, NV


    "If you have been looking for a realistic, field-tested, reader-friendly, and
    high-payoff guide to successful organizing, look no further! Brother Bob
    Oedy has long “walked the talk,” kept the Faith, lived the Dream, and,
    best of all scored numerous successes as a creative union organizer."

    "Shortly after joining the IBEW in 1988, and thanks in part to his many
    courses at the Meany Center, Bob began championing forward-thinking
    organizing techniques (like the use of safety language). Also,
    improvements in familiar techniques (like follow-up mailings). Also
    experiments with daring techniques (like covert salts). Also creative
    outreach (overlooked opportunities to gain union market share)."

    "His anecdotes from years of personal experience are spot on. His advice,
    the best available. And his optimism about Labor’s near-future prospects
    contagious and energizing."

    "This outstanding book belongs in the hands of every business manager,
    local president, E-Board member, and organizer – open and read and
    re-read – not back on the bookshelf. It may yet prove one of the critical
    tools in the overdue revival of America’s greatest social movements –
    and not a day too soon!"
