<p>Amanda Litman is an author, digital strategist, and the co-founder and president of &ldquo;Run For Something&rdquo; - an organization which recruits and supports young, diverse progressive candidates. Since launching in 2017, Run For Something has helped to elect more than 1,500 leaders across 49 states- primarily women and people of color. Outspoken against &ldquo;bad boomer leadership&rdquo; and a &ldquo;boomer mentality&rdquo; in politics, Litman is also president of RFS Civics - &nbsp;a 501c3 that works to end the gerontocracy. Shortly after launching Run for Something, Amanda wrote the book&nbsp;Run for Something: A Real-Talk Guide to Fixing the System Yourself&nbsp;and has recently published her latest book,&nbsp;When We&rsquo;re in Charge: The Next Generation&rsquo;s Guide to Leadership&nbsp;in May 2025. Litman cites Barack Obama as her inspiration to work in politics and started her career as an email writer for his 2012 re-election campaign. From there, Litman worked as a digital strategist for Hilary Clinton&rsquo;s 2016 presidential campaign, Charlie Crist's 2014 Florida gubernatorial campaign, and served as the deputy email director for Organizing for Action. Litman is a strong advocate for a new style of &ldquo;next gen&rdquo; leadership and setting a new standard for this upcoming generation of leaders.</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
