Oh boy, I had envisioned bloggers switching providers, but todays news is certainly a step forward. Björn from the German Edelman office just called me with breaking news (he knows I am not sitting in front of my feeds at the moment) about Steve Rubel:
After five years at CooperKatz, I felt it was time for me to take the next step in my evolution. So I am excited to announce that I will be joining Rick Murray’s team at Edelman (the world’s largest independent PR firm) on February 27 as a Senior Vice President. I will be working out of their New York office.
Apologies to the readers for yet another post mentioning Edelman, but from the perspective of a communicator, boy, are they on fire. Quite the team they are building, I am curious to know how many draft picks they had to give up for Steve. The hockey analogy gets weak when it comes to the Stanley Cup – there seems to be no big competition in this specific area. (You can almost envision somebody saying "Dynasty")
Well, they aren’t that far yet. The seeds are sown and I wish Steve and Edelman all the best on their voyage.
