About Us

From Two-Man Operation to Global Network

FleishmanHillard started in St. Louis and grew into one of the world's most trusted communications consultancies — a global network spanning nearly 80 offices across 30+ countries on six continents. That growth was never accidental. It was driven by a relentless commitment to innovation, to the craft of communications, and to the belief that authenticity isn't a buzzword — it's a business strategy. Proud to be part of Omnicom Group Inc., we operate alongside a family of partner agencies — GMMB, DDC, VOX Global, Blue Current and Methods+Mastery — all of whom share our standards if not our name. Together, we bring unmatched depth and reach to every client engagement, from the local to the truly global.

Who we are

Explorers. Question-Askers. Never-Settlers.

We are bold thinkers, doers and achievers who walk the talk. Our people come from every background imaginable — different industries, disciplines, cultures and life experiences — united by a single operating principle: one team. We live by the idea of Primus Inter Pares, first among equals, because leadership here isn't reserved for a corner office. Every person in our network is empowered to lead, to challenge the status quo and to pursue growth — personal and professional — with confidence. We don't just talk about diversity in thinking; we build our work around it. And we never settle, because great is only great until something better is possible.

What we do

Brand. Reputation. Experience. The Authenticity Trifecta.

We fuse Corporate Affairs with Brand Impact — pairing the industry's most seasoned counselors with the world's most robust data and technology stack to deliver transformative outcomes. Our expertise spans the full communications spectrum: brand and consumer marketing, reputation management, crisis communications, public affairs, employee communications, inclusive communications, intelligence and measurement, media and storytelling, creative strategy, responsible business and global impact, and executive advisory. We work across virtually every major sector — health and life sciences, technology, financial services, food and agriculture, manufacturing and energy, government, retail, sports and lifestyle — helping clients find the sweet spot where who they are aligns with who people think they are, validated by real experiences. That's a powerful place to be. We help you get there.

Our Purpose

Be Known for Authenticity

Everybody talks about authenticity. The transformative live by it. That's the idea at the heart of everything we do at FleishmanHillard. Our purpose is to help organizations earn the trust they need to grow — by putting truth at the center of their communications, building meaningful connections with the audiences who matter most, and driving positive business impact that lasts. We believe the world works better when organizations are honest about who they are, bold in what they stand for, and consistent in how they show up. That's not just good PR. That's the foundation of enduring reputation.

Our Values

The Guiding Principles We Actually Live By

Our eight guiding principles aren't framed on a wall — they shape every decision we make. We value one team, collaborating seamlessly across nearly 80 offices in 30+ countries. We think boldly, placing truth and authenticity fearlessly at the center of every piece of work. We seek out new and different ideas, because true diversity in thinking, backgrounds and life experience makes our work stronger. We deliver great work every time, holding ourselves to the same standard we'd expect if we were the client. We have the confidence to grow — pursuing both business and personal opportunities with ambition. We embrace challenges and see everything through, even when it's hard. We harness unique perspectives to empower diverse leaders to reach more people and do more good. And above all, we do what's right — conducting ourselves honestly and ethically for our people, our clients, our industry and the world.

Why working with us

The Industry's Most Experienced Counselors, Backed by the World's Most Robust Data Stack

Clients choose FleishmanHillard because we deliver where others describe. We pair deep human expertise — the industry's most experienced counselors across every major sector and discipline — with the world's most robust data and technology stack, so every decision is grounded in intelligence and every outcome is measurable. Our dual strength in Corporate Affairs and Brand Impact means we can connect the dots others miss: between reputation and revenue, between internal culture and external perception, between a bold idea and a business result. Spanning nearly 80 offices across 30+ countries, we offer seamless global execution with true local fluency. And because we operate with a genuine one-team mindset, clients don't navigate a patchwork of siloes — they get the full force of a unified global network, always on, always open.

Sustainability

Responsible Business. Global Impact.

We hold ourselves accountable not just to our clients and our people, but to the world. Through our Responsible Business & Global Impact practice, we help organizations navigate the stakeholder expectations, accountability demands and transformation pressures that define doing business today. Internally, that same commitment runs through everything we do — from our approach to ethical practice, to how we partner with vendors and suppliers from all walks of life, to the standards we set for ourselves as an Omnicom company. We don't treat responsible business as a bolt-on. We treat it as a strategic imperative and a mark of character.

Community & Impact

FH4Inclusion: Time, Talent and Action in Every Community We Call Home

FH4Inclusion — our global pro bono and volunteer initiative — was born when our people were asked how they wanted to celebrate FleishmanHillard's 70th anniversary and answered, overwhelmingly, that they wanted to give back. That instinct has grown into something lasting. Today, every one of our nearly 80 global offices identifies nonprofit organizations, initiatives and charities that champion inclusion in their local communities — advancing racial equity, supplier diversity, disability awareness, education, job training, healthcare and more. To date, we have supported more than 165 organizations, donated more than 40,000 hours of time and talent, and contributed more than $8.4 million in pro bono value. Because we believe a communications agency is uniquely positioned to raise awareness, connect people and create lasting change — and we intend to use that position well.

Inclusion & Diversity

Inclusion, Innovation and Impact: From the Inside Out

Our ambition is clear: to be the most inclusive agency in the world. This isn't a new priority for us — it's intrinsic to who we are, and we're moving it deeper into our center all the time. Inside our culture, that means combating bias, seeking wisdom and being intentional about creating space where every person can belong and thrive. It means open dialogues through our #LoseTheWhisper program, 10 global Employee Resource Groups that build real connection and allyship networkwide, and the Alfred Fleishman Inclusion Fellowship that brings the next generation's perspectives into our work. We also welcome people from non-traditional backgrounds through our New to Agency Training, because we believe the right person for the job is defined by their strengths, not their career history. For our clients, we are committed stewards of their social responsibility — helping them develop and advance their own inclusion ambitions through our inclusive communications and True MOSAIC expertise. And in our communities, FH4Inclusion puts our time and talent where our values are. Inclusion is not a program. It is how we operate.
