InfoFor the past 30 years, Richard Leebove, President of RL Communications, Inc., of Southfield, Michigan, has been developing and putting into action communications programs for labor oriented clients throughout the United States. In this role, Leebove has served as a valued consultant, strategist and spokesman for labor unions, labor causes and prominent political figures. On a daily basis, Leebove crafts, strategizes and develops labor messages that have made their way to the front pages of some of the most respected newspapers in the U.S., as well as TV, radio and Internet broadcasts. He works closely with union officers and communications staff on tactics and strategy in dealing with the media to ensure labor’s story is effectively communicated to the public. While Leebove works predominantly behind the scenes, his success on behalf of James P. Hoffa’s campaign for Teamster General President earned him a front-page story in the Wall Street Journal in 1997. Today he serves as one of Hoffa’s most trusted advisors and is a consultant to the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. In addition to the Teamsters, RL Communications, founded in 1982, has represented dozens of labor organizations in Michigan and across North America. Among them are local unions from the Utility Workers of America, the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees, Service Employees International Union, Metro Detroit AFL-CIO, United Food and Commercial Workers and HERE/UNITE. RL Communications produces more than 30 local union publications on a regular basis. The company produces annual reports and commemorative journals for its labor clientele while also doing extensive political consulting for national and Michigan campaigns, including presidential, gubernatorial, U.S. Senate and House races and numerous statewide races. Leebove, 57, is a lifelong resident of Michigan and lives in Bloomfield Hills with his wife & three children. He attended the University of Michigan.
