Executive Profile PR: Helping you build your brand with PR

Executive profiling

What is executive profiling? And why is PR fundamental to having a successful executive profile?

Executive profiling, sometimes known as CEO profiling or executive positioning, is all about gathering detailed information about your professional background, leadership style and management approach, as well as your career history and accomplishments, and decision-making abilities. An executive profile will often look at personal traits, and the public’s perception of you, as well your educational background and your potential risks and strengths.

So what is the point of an executive profile? An executive profile is often used for:

  • Hiring and succession planning where an organisation assesses whether you’ll be a ‘good fit’ and align with the company’s culture and leadership requirements.
  • Investor relations and public perception, and understanding how an executive or CEO is perceived by stakeholders, the market and the media prior to any potential company investment.
  • Board appointments where a business needs to get the right mix of skills and experience on board.
  • Due diligence where executives are assessed for leadership compatibility as part of a mergers and acquisitions process or as part of a new partnership.
  • Security or risk management where reputational risk, financial history, litigation, or ethical concerns are all assessed.

Why is executive profiling PR important? As someone who has worked in the media business for over 30 years, I’ve delivered PR for CEOs, COOs, CFOs, chairs, presidents, executive directors and all kinds of C-suite high-flyers. But my executive profiling PR services are a very specific type of PR because they shape how you’re perceived by a highly targeted audience including potential investors.

“Executive profiling PR services combine your corporate reputation, your personal brand, your career history and your background into a strategic and cohesive storytelling tool, which is essential for your long-term industry success.”Jill Kent, PR Superstar
