[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner gap=”20″][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Hi, I’m Tara (Murray) McDonagh.
I come from the world of corporate communications and agency public relations, armed with about 25 years of experience in public relations, crisis communications, internal communications and public affairs.
My experience spans from senior leadership roles in Corporate Communications departments for some of the nation’s largest and most established brands in healthcare, insurance, retail and technology to agency work gained at some of the most well-respected firms around the globe.
More recently, as Tara McDonagh Communications LLC (TMC), President and Chief Communications Strategist, I am entrusted by Communications and Marketing leaders at large Companies to help them get out of constant triage-mode and do the Strategic Communications work that will advance their teams reputations as critical business advisors.
From multi-billion dollar global renewable energy companies to massive national health care organizations and high-growth-stage tech companies, to the inventor of drywall (yes, really), and the manufacturer of a famous candy, I’m there for you. I know how to partner with you to change the conversations inside companies.
Working with me, we do the strategic work that shifts requests from your peers away from:
“Can Communications write this (email, newsletter, press release, social media post, town hall, or insert other tactic)” to,
“I have a business issue, how can Communications help?”
- Team/Department Workshops
- Strategic Annual Communications Plans
- Team Organizational Structure and Scope Models
- Speaker Sessions and Workshops
- Content Strategy
- Internal Communications Plans
But experience is just part of the story. You can’t see personality on a resumé.
I’m driven from personal values of authenticity, integrity, curiosity and humor. It’s only natural that those who work with me exhibit these same values. And I don’t just say these are my values, I live them in the decisions I make.
I understand where you’re coming from because whether you are agency or corporate side, a company of several million in revenue to a Fortune 500 company, I’ve been there.
I know how strategic communications centered around business goals can make a massive impact on an organization and an industry. I also know what it looks and feels like when you feel stuck in a cycle of constant triage.
Maddening. Uninspiring. Defeating.
So, let’s change it, together.
It’s what I do. It’s what I can partner with you on to accomplish.
It’s my Vision to achieve a Corporate World that not only invites, but expects, Communications executives to act as critical business advisors, complete with equal share of voice at the decision-making table.
If you want learn more, drop me a line and let’s set up a call to see if we’re a fit.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”51847″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_border”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
