Dentons US chairman Jeffrey Haidet and Public Policy principal Eric Tanenblatt have been recognized in JAMES Magazine’s annual list of “Most Influential Georgians” for 2021, which recognizes accomplished men and women across Georgia who have made significant contributions to the state. 

Haidet was recognized for his role as Dentons US chairman and his ongoing engagement in the Atlanta community, including as a board member of the Commerce Club of Atlanta, the Catholic Foundation of Georgia and First Step Staffing. 

JAMES Magazine recognized Tanenblatt’s role as global chair of Public Policy and Regulation and head of Dentons US Public Policy practice. The publication noted his three decades of experience at the very highest levels of the federal and state governments, including his work as chief of staff to Sonny Perdue, Georgia's first Republican governor in 130 years, a longtime advisor to the late US Senator Paul Coverdell and his roles in the Administration of President George H. W. Bush. A renowned lecturer and political counselor who is widely regarded as one of the nation's preeminent public policy thought leaders, Tanenblatt was nominated by President George W. Bush, and confirmed by the US Senate, to serve on the Board of the Corporation for National and Community Service, and is also the founder and chairman of Hands on Georgia, a statewide organization to promote volunteerism.
