“Through their Commitments To Action, CGI members tackle the world’s toughest challenges. APCO ensures they are recognized.”

INSPIRE what’s next.

The Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) connects and empowers a community of global leaders to take action on the world’s most pressing challenges.

APCO broadened media coverage of the impact ROBERT HARRISON, CEO of its members, harnessed attention around its CLINTON GLOBAL INITIATIVE Annual Meeting and positioned CGI as the premierer convener of action-oriented leaders.

We championed CGI’s goals: provided members strategic counsel, communication training and media relations support. A winning outcome: extensive media interest in member causes highlighting the wide-ranging achievements of CGI that have improved the lives of nearly 400 million people. Next step: build further awareness and support to alleviate poverty, create a cleaner environment, and increase access to health care and education worldwide.

The 2013 Edition of O’Dwyer’s Directory of Public Relations Firms contains listings of 1,400 public relations “Through their Commitments firms and public relations departments of advertising agencies worldwide. Readers should also cross-reference the To Action, CGI members tackle directory with the PR firms database on odwyerpr.com for the latest updates to listings contained in the directory as well as new firm listings not found in the printed edition. the world’s toughest challenges. The rankings of PR Firms, which includes virtually all the major firms, are intended to allow the reader to draw rough conclusions regarding the growth of agencies year over year. Only firms that list clients are included in the rankings. APCO ensures they Outside CPAs of the firms were asked to do a “Special Report” on the figures involved (see page 6 for complete are recognized.” rules). While not the same as a full audit, such a report, also referred to as an “agreed-upon-procedure,” carries the full endorsement of the CPA firms. The rankings should be regarded as an expression of the Directory’s opinion, rather than a statement of fact. The rankings are only intended to be approximations in the Directory’s judgment of a firm’s standing within the industry, and are not warranted to comply with any specific objective standards. The Directory’s geographical index reflects the fact that many PR firms operate from multiple office locations. This sorting is carried over into the PR specialty index which identifies firms with skills in 22 areas such as beauty and fashion, food and beverage, healthcare, investor relations, professional services, sports and entertainment, technology, and travel. Companies looking for PR counsel should be sure to read the article “How to Hire and Get the Most From Outside PR Counsel” at the end of the geographical index. Fraser Seitel, former senior VP-PA of Chase Bank and author of The Practice of Public Relations, has contributed an article on hiring a PR firm from the client’s point of view. The last section of the directory, an exclusive cross-client index, is the only place where you can look up a company and determine its outside PR counsel. 6,500 clients are listed this year. The editors of the Directory thank all the PR firms for their cooperation in providing data for the rankings as well as their listings of accounts, PR professionals, addresses, etc. We believe the availability of fuller information about the PR counseling industry will help clients who seek to employ firms and will help the industry to grow faster.

With a heritage in the technology sector, the firm’s work today Fairfax County Economic & Development Authority cuts across a range of industries. While campaigns vary by client and National Harbor industry, all share one theme: the creation of content that reflects the SnagAJob tenets of storytelling. This means developing narratives that prompt jour- Stitch Golf nalists to write and target audiences to read – a far cry from the “corpo- University of Richmond rate speak” that satisfies internal stakeholders. Toward this end, the firm conducts storytelling workshops for internal communicators, executives and employees. For clients with global needs, the company operates in Asia Pacific, Europe and the United States. Unlike traditional agencies handicapped by their silo structure, The Hoffman Agency applies a col- laborative approach to implementing multi-country campaigns. This leverage of content and thinking across geographies ultimately generates better results. Lou Hoffman, CEO; Lydia Lau, VP of operations; Shingo Nomura, managing dir.
