About Michelle Bonds

The key to securing a position as a leader in business is to establish a strong public reputation. Once established, maintaining that good reputation becomes the key to creating a legacy of enduring positive image and sustainable business success. My name is Michelle Bonds and I have been helping health and medical organizations build and maintain strong, positive reputations for over 25 years. I am a Senior Communication Strategist with significant experience, both domestically and abroad, leading public affairs and issues management by developing results-oriented and award-winning media relations and communications programs. I assist companies navigate large-scale promotion and social programs designed for long-term success and sustainability. As strategic communications offices are assuming increasing responsibility in issues management as part of overall Reputation Management, companies are realizing how the strategic coordination of implementing effective sustainability programming for successful reputation management is critical to their bottom line. Hiring seasoned communicators with strong background in sustainability program development, large-scale promotion, and social marketing ensures a competitive edge in this evolving market. By managing health program campaigns with effective communication between the public and private sectors, I leverage every opportunity to promote a positive profile and to proactively mitigate threats before they can compromise a company\'s reputation or bottom line. I am on LinkedIn to strengthen business relations and make new connections. If you have any questions or would like to discuss my experiences, please connect with me on LinkedIn or contact me directly.
