Updated in 2014, this plain-spoken guide will help leaders evaluate their goals and revitalize their unions. Intended for officers who are committed to doing things differently than their predecessors, Just Elected walks the reader through steps that will mobilize members and breathe vitality into the union. The labor movement isn't about servicing workers, Barry says, it's about building a sustainable workers' organization- and he shows you how to do it. In straight-forward language the author explains how to create a union that can be strong, grow and thrive in any environment. Chapters explain the organizing model (vs. the servicing model) of unionism; how to do the kind of strategic planning needed to build your union; analyze the various functions of the union and its finances, and build a communications network that involves and rallies the members. It explains the laws you have to look out for, how to deal with other officers and union staff, and how to organize yourself to do what needs to be done to pull it together and make it all work. Bill Barry is a veteran union activist and, until recently, labor studies program director at the Community College of Baltimore County's Dundalk campus, where he taught leadership skills, organizing, labor law, political action and other core subjects. If you're a local officer who seriously wants to see your union become more effective, this book is a good place to start.

What can unions do as the Great Recession ravages workers and their unions and threatens to destroy decades of collective bargaining gains? What must local union leaders do to help their laid-off members, protect those still working, and prevent the gutting of their hard-fought contracts--and their very unions themselves? How, in fact, can local union leaders seize the time and turn crisis into opportunity? Bill Barry, director of labor studies at the Community College of Baltimore County and a 40-year veteran of the movement, calls on his long history of activism and years of "what works, what doesn't" discussions with other leaders to come up with a plan to survive these terrible times and even use this crisis to build a better future.  The second edition has been updated with an important chapter addressing the assault on public sector unions.
