FleishmanHillard, a leading communications and consulting agency, has announced a significant restructuring of its Corporate Affairs Practice. Rachel Catanach has been appointed as the global managing director, tasked with unifying the firm's advisory offerings across seven core pillars: corporate reputation, financial and M&A, crisis and issues, executive positioning, public affairs and geopolitical strategy, talent and transformation, and responsible business [1].

The new leadership structure aims to deliver more connected and insight-driven counsel, helping clients navigate the complexities and uncertainties of today's global business environment. Catanach, who continues to lead the agency's New York and Boston offices, will oversee a team of regional leaders, including Michael Moroney, Yvonne Park, and Hanning Kempe, who will guide strategy across the Americas, APAC, and EMEA, respectively [1].

The new structure leverages FleishmanHillard's powerful combination of counselor-driven solutions and advanced intelligence infrastructure. This enables teams to respond to client challenges with greater speed, precision, and business impact. The firm's recent innovations, such as Risk Radar, SAGE, and the Connectivity Diagnostic Agent, are designed to enhance these capabilities [1].

FleishmanHillard's Global Executive Advisory network, consisting of more than 50 senior counselors, will provide strategic guidance to senior leaders navigating high-stakes issues and transformative change. The new appointments follow several recent market leadership announcements, further solidifying FleishmanHillard's commitment to investing in regional leaders who deliver trusted counsel and measurable impact [1].

This restructuring underscores FleishmanHillard's dedication to helping leaders anticipate risk, accelerate transformation, and build enduring reputations in a complex and ever-changing world.
