Reince Priebus is a decisive and pragmatic bridge builder, who reformed and modernized the Republican National Committee, and managed the White House as the first Chief of Staff to President Donald Trump.
A skilled negotiator who knows how to persuade competing factions to unite behind a common goal, he is credited as one of the chief architects of the historic Republican victory in 2016. Named White House Chief of Staff within days of Trump’s win, Priebus managed daily operations, collaborated with Members of Congress, and worked to advance the President’s agenda.
Prior to his White House service, Priebus served three terms as RNC Chairman, emerging as one of the longest serving and the most successful leader in party history. First elected in 2011, he helped rescue the RNC’s finances, repair its operations, and rebuild their ground organization, priming the party for their momentous win.
“I took the RNC from oblivion,” says Priebus, “without drama, mistakes, or infighting.”
Admired by his GOP colleagues for offering hard work, determination, and trust, Priebus put out administrative brushfires as well as articulated strategic vision.
Before breaking onto the national scene, Priebus honed his skills working his way up through the leadership ranks of the Wisconsin GOP, becoming its youngest Chairman in 2007 at age 35. During his tenure as Chairman, the Wisconsin GOP won control over both chambers of the state legislature, reclaimed the governorship, and scored two additional congressional seats, as well as a Senate seat.
Priebus is a regular political commentator for major news channels and is an officer in the U.S. Navy Reserves. Previously, he served as a visiting Fellow at Institute of Politics at Harvard Kennedy School. Priebus was recognized as a “Rising Star” in 2009 by Super Lawyers magazine. In 2016, TIME magazine named the then RNC Chairman to their “100 Most Influential People in the World” list, and then named Priebus to the list again in 2017 when he was the White House Chief of Staff.
With audiences, Priebus is a compelling and energetic storyteller. The former RNC chief shares stories from behind-the-scenes at the White House, the machinery of insider Washington, and triumphs and failures from his long career. He articulates his opinions with frankness and candor, and keeps the conversation lively and entertaining.
