Michael Murphy

Michael has decades of international experience running large public relations firms and for the past five years he has been a non-executive and adviser to a range of communications and marketing businesses globally. Based in London, he mentors senior management, supporting business planning and growth and helping identify acquisition and merger opportunities.
"The Drum is at the forefront of reflecting the latest trends in public relations and in the marketing services industry generally. I am pleased that agencies and in-house teams will have an opportunity to showcase their achievements to the wider marketing community which The Drum serves and not just to their own peers. I will be looking for entries which show demonstrable evidence of return on investment and a clear contribution to an organisation’s business objectives. I won’t be interested in stunts or coverage for coverage’s sake."
