I explain things.
As a former journalist, university professor, public relations and marketing communications executive I have dedicated my career to helping individuals and organizations make sense of the world around them.
To that end, I founded HG Communications to work with senior leaders and their teams to better understand complex issues and ideas, and effectively communicate them to diverse audiences.
More than simply a communicator, I am an interpreter: someone who defines my clients to the world, but also decodes the world for my clients. Accordingly, I approach strategy, not as a set of fixed procedures and anticipated outcomes, but as an open-ended process that emerges from ongoing change and the perpetual give-and-take between enterprises and stakeholders.
I counsel clients to recognize all the factors that contribute to a problem, and how these various elements interact and influence each other under constantly changing circumstances. I do this by incorporating data, analyses, and insights from multiple branches of knowledge to create a comprehensive set of perspectives.
Moreover, I provide the means to understand how different audiences access, perceive, process, share, and use information; and align clients’ priorities with those of their stakeholders.
I then develop clear and compelling content across the full spectrum of media.
