Learning Objective: Assessing methods for navigating corporate politics from the male perspective
Do you know why women are not sitting at the leadership tables in your organization? Have you ever thought that, if given the opportunity, you could help make your organization better? Many professional women have reported feeling left out of key decisions or impacted by the politics that lessen their contributions. At the same time, several top women executives who continue to excel say YOU must learn to understand, rise above, and effectively use politics to get things done. In her book, Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead, COO of Facebook Sheryl Sandburg encourages women to promote themselves in order to achieve professional advancement. This session is part one of a two-part series that will help women to address the best methods of navigating organizational politics from the all-male panel’s perspective.
At the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
a. Identify how men view organizational politics.
b. Learn the skills and traits used by male employees to be successful in organizational politics.
c. Explore possible opportunities and challenges in various industries.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

The July Elections of the Tampa Bay Young Republicans include Ashley Intartaglia
changes to the club’s by-laws and changes to the elected officers.
Information in this release includes new officers’ outlook on the future Director of
and purpose. Communications
TAMPA BAY YOUNG REPUBLICANS LOOK TO THE FUTURE
Yearly election produces highly motivated executive board
Tampa (July 31)--On July 28, the Tampa Bay Young Republicans swore in their new executive board,
who hope to take the local political organization to new heights, and spread the message of a younger
conservative demographic. Andrew Dorsey, newly elected president, also hopes to continue the vision
and direction that out-going president Adam Smith helped establish when he first took the position.
Andrew Dorsey released this statement on the future of TBYR: “Building the future Republican leaders of
America is at the core of what it means to be in Young Republican leadership. We could be the first
generation to have a less prosperous life than our parents. It is imperative to challenge young
professionals, singles, and married couples to step up and not let the choices being made in Tallahassee
and Washington happen without our voice and opinions reaching the halls of our government. We will
continue to be in the community via charities, mixers, and sporting events. As a club we are
strengthened by our past, looking to the future. Our region will know that Republican Leadership starts
within the Tampa Bay Young Republicans.”
Other new board members include Vice President Ash Mason (Senior Legislative Assistant to State
Representative Ed Hooper), Secretary Kimberly Hill (Client Services Manager at the Arnold Palmer Golf
Academy), and returning Treasurer Scott Strepina (mortgage advisor with Benjamin Ruth Mortgage).
Please see attached pages for a full biography on each board member.
“TBYR has been run very well and received a lot of recognition for its achievements in the past year,”
said Ash Mason. “At the Florida Federation of Young Republican’s annual state convention in May we
were recognized for Best Newsletter, Best Charity Event, and Club of the Year. We have plans to do even
more this year and I’m proud to be a part of the team.”
In addition to electing a new executive board, TBYR voted on changes to the club’s by-laws. One
amendment will now make it possible for members to vote during the annual election via absentee ballot,
if they can not make the meeting, as long as they give at least 7 days notice prior to the election date.

TBYR Member since: April 2007
Community
Besides working with TBYR, Over the years, AJ has been involved with organizations such as the Red
Cross and Civil Air Patrol. He has contributed to various charity events within TBYR including American
Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, and the Spirit of Tampa.
His goal for TBYR is to be an active team in the community that can drive members toward a unified
vision to reach our local charities and make TBYR known statewide as a group concerned with
developing tools for members to grow and empowering them to run for office and as the next leaders of
America.
Business
Professionally, AJ has been involved with several local firms. His education is in the field of International
Business. This includes corporate accounting, business operations, and supply chain management.
Fulfilling a life-long goal, AJ has moved to start his own company, Adventures for the Mind, Inc. As a
den of innovation, it leads the way for individuals to recapture and explore the imagination and power
of their own minds.
His business experience has been in IT consulting, as an IT Network Administrator. He has worked on
computer networks and managed EDI systems, as well as exchange, blackberry enterprise servers, SQL
servers, POP, DVR, Print Servers, Phone systems, including Intertel, NEC, and others. These have been
put in place in small businesses, as well as enterprise level networks spanning multiple locations.
Primary Issue:
Foreign Affairs - His time spent teaching English in China, and as a student emissary for St. Petersburg
College has shown him that the American vision abroad is skewed as to the reality of the American
Dream and vision of liberty for mankind.
Political Ambitions:
AJ is unsure as of this point what his future in the Political World will be. His greatest desire is to see
strict constructionist thought return to the government of the United States. A government that works
for the people, cuts red-tape. He wants the Tax Code updated using modern methods that would make
filing easy, either through the usage of a Fair-Tax, or Flat Tax system. He is wary of the Federal
Government continuing to expand. He often asks, where does government expansion stop?

TBYR Member since: March 2009
Community:
As a member of the Hillsborough County Republican Party, Ash looks forward to being involved in many
of the upcoming local elections. He hopes that his new position in TBYR will lead to a greater
involvement between the two organizations which will be mutually beneficial to all involved. Ash enjoys
taking part in activities with his rescue greyhound, Blast, which he adopted from the Bay Area
Greyhound Association. He also is a member of his local Rotary club and attends Idlewild Baptist
Church.
Business:
Ash is currently the Senior Legislative Assistant to State Representative Ed Hooper. Before working for
Rep. Hooper, Ash also worked for the Republican Party of Florida as a campaign manager for House
Speaker Larry Cretul, Speaker Designate Will Weatherford, Chairman John Legg, and Rep. Rachel
Burgin. Prior to entering the public service field, Ash was a small business owner in Tallahassee, where
he operated an All-Star Gym for kids. On Fridays, Ash would open his gym to the special needs students
of Leon County and eventually went on to develop a national competition team of Special Olympic
athletes.
Education:
BS Interdisciplinary Social Science/ Florida State University
Primary Issue:
Developing a world class educational system will go a long way towards solving the numerous problems
all societies are faced with. That’s not solved by throwing money into the system, but by putting an
emphasis on how we learn and changing the out of date methodologies that are crippling our schools.
Political Ambitions:
Ash would like to continue working for the citizens of Florida. Whether as an assistant or one day as an
elected official his goal is to stay true to the idea that we make the world better by helping one person
at a time. One of his favorite quotes is that “The smallest good deed is better than the greatest good
intention.”
