Ogilvy Public Relations Joins Forces with the Wilson Center's WPSP [Professional Services Close - Up]


(Professional Services Close - Up Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Ogilvy Public Relations unveiled a pro-bono partnership with the Wilson Center's Women in Public Service Project (WPSP).

According to a release from the company, the collaboration brings Ogilvy's brightest talent in corporate and public affairs to advance the WPSP's strategic communications efforts, inspiring and mobilizing a new generation of women leaders in public service.



Kate Cronin, global managing director of Ogilvy CommonHealth and Lisa Ross, Executive Vice President and head of Public Affairs, are leading the collaborative effort. Ogilvy's engagement includes developing a message framework to influence various stakeholders as well as providing strategic guidance to WPSP outreach initiatives.

"The communication of a powerful message is critical to furthering our mission. The WPSP has benefited enormously from the thoughtful point of view and enriching advice Ogilvy brings to the table. The WPSP is relentlessly working to advance more women leaders in public service and to inspire them to invest in their countries and communities, provide leadership in their governments, and change the way global solutions are forged," said Rangita de Silva de Alwis, director of the WPSP.


"We are delighted to work with a pro-bono partner that has the vision and the ability to spearhead the imperative issue of women leadership in public service," said Lisa Ross. "As a woman who has worked in public service, I am very cognizant about the need to have women represented equally at the decision table. We look forward to continue amplifying the WPSP message and bringing it to those who can make the greatest difference inside the beltway and around the world." Ogilvy Public Relations is a global, multi-disciplinary communications company.

The Women in Public Service Project (WPSP) is a partnership aimed at reaching a minimum of 50 percent representation of women in decision-making roles in public service by 2050 - 50 by 50.
