Madeleine Little: Global Communications Insights and Strategic Positioning at JLL, Aon and Dun & Bradstreet

Join us on the Comms Coffee Club Podcast this week as we sit down with the incredible Madeleine Little. Madeleine's career in PR and corporate communications began after reading a small job advert in the back of the Financial Times one evening and has since led her to work with leading CEOs, shape the future of communications, and support business growth strategies at leading brands across commercial real estate, risk management & insurance, and data & insights industries, including JLL, Aon and Dun & Bradstreet. We start with unexpected entry into the communications and PR at Citigate Dewe Rogerson to her transition from agency to in-house and then moving to Singapore to lead APAC communications for JLL. Madeleine takes us on a global tour of the communications industry as we dissect the intricate customs and challenges that emerge when crossing borders. From the sector-specific press offices and press release pigeonholes of Japan to India's insatiable appetite for information, we examine the unique communication styles of various countries. We also delve into the complexities of content-heavy communication briefs, address the issues of budget and headcounts, and emphasise the importance of clarity and structure in any organisation. The highlight of our conversation is Madeleine's insights into her favourite CEO to work for from a communications perspective, Julie Page, at Aon. We dissect the strategies, planning and importance of authenticity and empathy for CEOs.Looking for Your Next Communications or IR role, or Looking to Hire Into Your Comms or IR Team in the UK or USA?Learn about opportunities and insights into the world of in-house communications with Comms Search and Selection.Visit https://www.commssearch.com/Follow Us for More:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/comms-search-selection/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/comms_search_selection/ Hosted on Acast.
