Final Core Messages

Our party message and “Brand” needs to be more clear, dynamic and passionate

• Party messaging, platform not resonating with Albertans
• Party Principles just fine - but not motivating or attention grabbing nor do they differentiate the Alberta Party from the other “centrist” parties
• Absolutely no clear idea nor consensus of what our “Brand” is or should be
• Who we are is still unclear and no clear ideas for the direction we need to go
• Are we “centrist”? And is that what we want to be?

Party structure and organization is weak

• The central party organization and operational structure is weak and needs an overhaul.
• The party structure and organization was not strong enough to support 19 candidates this past election and is definitely not strong enough to support a full slate of 87 candidates
• Internal party communications weak
• Volunteer recruitment, coordination and management very weak
• Centralized public relations, messaging, communications weak
• Board members are not all contributing equally; Not enough other volunteers to allow board to not be active contributors
• Fundraising is weak
• Party resources are low, need more money, dedicated people
• Enough money to hire an executive director to manage the organization

Need to ensure we confirm whose voices should have the volume turned up and messages acted upon
