Xenophon Strategies

Jay Silverberg

Jay Silverberg joined Xenophon Strategies 9 ½  years ago after seven years with GCI/Kamer Public Affairs in San Francisco. During his tenure with Xenophon and GCI/Kamer Public Affairs, Mr. Silverberg has guided businesses and not-for-profit organizations through issues relating to crises and crisis planning, public policy, the media, employee and labor relations, mergers, corporate social responsibility, government and political affairs, executive communications, social activism, product liability, and community relations.

Clients have included more than a dozen Fortune 500 firms, local, state and federal agencies, as well as local, regional and nationally recognized non-profits. Mr. Silverberg has directed communications training programs for more than 4,000 corporate executives, physicians, lawyers, Salvation Army officers and others seeking assistance with media communications.

Mr. Silverberg began working for his family-owned daily newspaper in Southern Louisiana and after graduation from the University of Missouri, he moved on to editorial positions at increasingly larger publications in California, Florida, Oklahoma, New York and Illinois. Newspapers and staff under Mr. Silverberg's direction were continually honored locally, statewide, regionally and nationally for their writing, photography, design and overall excellence.

Mr. Silverberg has volunteered for several non-profit organizations in or near his hometown of Petaluma, California, where he and his wife have lived since 1986. They have two grown children and two very spoiled cats that sometimes appear on Mr. Silverberg’s Facebook page. His goal is to tweet – follow him at jaybsilver – from as many of the top 100 Golf Courses in the World as he can.
