"Missy has a rare mix of field vision, detailed knowledge and interpersonal management savvy. I spent five years watching her handle the challenges of keeping a team of CEO's and COO's from companies around the country focused on the major issues affecting their industry as she served the role of Executive Director of the Large Public Power Council. She managed both the personalities and the issues with a delicate balance that let us think we were in charge. Missy understood the needs of the member companies, the implications for different legislative initiatives for the companies and the industry at large, and how to help the parties iron out differences to develop a common platform. The strength and effectiveness of the LPPC is due in large part to the skills that Missy brings to every engagement" May 12, 2009

Missy knows her business, and she has a tremendous passion for what she does.  There is no doubt she can provide results for her clients.  The bottom line: She knows of what she speaks."

"I endorse and recommend Missy and her consultancy for those who need help improving customer or constituent relations or those who need someone to effectively advocate a position with government officials. Having worked with Missy for almost two decades, Missy impressed me with her ability to build internal and external relationships. These relationships formed the foundation for Missy to effectively advocate often sensitive positions for our LCRA and build consensus across diverse stakeholder groups. She was effective internally with employees and externally with customers, constituents and officials (elected as well as staff) in state and federal positions. When I need the services that Mandell and Associates provide, I know I can count on Missy and her team to excel in the task given them." May 12, 2009
