At the start of March 2010, Leah M. Huang was officially promoted to Managing Director of Ogilvy Public Relations (Philippines). Huang performed as OIC and Business Unit Director in 2009, proving her mettle against challenging economic conditions and key personnel changes.
“Huang succeeded in masterfully steering her team to more steady ground—achieving financial targets, replacing non-performing accounts via an aggressive newbiz effort, and most important of all, transforming her team into the more cohesive, revitalized Ogilvy PR it is today,” said Randy Aquino, Ogilvy & Mather country head.
“Leah is a rock,” says Andrew Thomas, Ogilvy PR Region Director Southeast Asia. “Against the backdrop of a challenging year she used 2009 to get all of the basics right – people, clients and great work. The rest is the easy bit, building on a solid reputation with clients and the industry. In the blink of an eye we will have the smartest brains in the business queuing around the block for the opportunity to be part of the winning team.”
Leah brings to Ogilvy PR over two decades’ experience in the development and implementation of effective communication strategy and issues management along with strong editorial expertise with San Miguel Corporation and Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines. She took post-graduate studies at the Ateneo Graduate School of Business and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication Arts and in Marketing Management from the De La Salle University.
