Greg Hittelman, Founder and CEO of Strategy/Media, leads a global team of senior-level strategists and PR pros. Here's what our clients say:
"In times of risk and times of opportunity, get Greg in your corner."
- Kathryn Bigelow, Academy Award-winning Director and Producer (Hurt Locker, House of Dynamite)
"If you need PR results, Greg is your ‘go to’ guy."
- Jere Sullivan, Vice Chairman, Global Public Affairs, Edelman
"My organization was faced with an escalating leadership crisis that our board of directors feared could destroy the organization if not handled just right. We turned to Greg Hittelman for help. Greg jumped right in with a few hours notice, and helped our board develop messaging and a messaging strategy. A week later, it was clear that disasters had been averted. Thanks to Greg we now feel strong and prepared."
- Anita L. Allen, Chair, Board of Directors, EPIC (Electronic Privacy Information Center)
"Strategy/Media brought a keen sense of calm and deep analytical approach to our crisis communications planning. As an important member of our executive team, Greg's strategic thinking and coaching helped us develop a robust 'in case of emergency, break glass' plan, and ultimately helped me sleep much better."
- Steve Shillingford, CEO, DeepSee.ai
"Greg is a secret weapon on Capitol Hill. In the most bitter of politically partisan environments, his behind the scenes efforts were the rocket fuel to pass two major pieces of Congressional legislation. Greg transcends partisan roadblocks by focusing on the kernel of universal truth. And he deploys alliances, big-influence media coverage and a heat-seeking strategy that make seemingly impossible targets suddenly very real and achievable."
- Robin Townley, Global Head, Special Services, Maersk
"Greg Hittelman and Strategy/Media delivered exactly when it counted. Greg secured a weekday daytime CNN appearance (large viewership) for me at a critical moment in the war with Iran. The segment allowed me to present my experience and expertise in military operations in the Middle East. Greg's deep relationships across the media landscape and his instinct for message strategy are the real deal. If you're looking for a PR partner who can place you in the world's most influential outlets and make sure you're at your best when you get there, Greg is the person to call."
- Joe Buccino (Col.-Ret.), former Director of Communications at U.S. CENTCOM, Secretary of Defense spokesperson, and author of When Every Word Counts
"Greg Hittelman was a Godsend - that is truly what I feel he was when we met. I had never published an opinion article, but he helped me conceive, write and place a powerful op-ed that ran in the New York Times. Greg allowed me to imagine my power and then made it manifest."
- Addington Stewart, President, International Association of Black Professional Firefighters
"Strategy/Media provided excellent executive media training that prepared me to be successful in interviews for top TV and newspaper outlets. The crisis communications work we did together was vital to navigating the Ebola outbreak effectively."
- Eric Talbert, CEO, MedCycle Network; former Executive Director, Emergency USA
"I often need to work in the shadows, but Greg is like sunlight. He shines and good things grow. Working with him, my investigations were breaking in the New York Times, I was on the cover of magazines, I was being interviewed on CNN, we helped pass the first-ever Global Arms Trade Treaty, and I was named Arms Control Person of the Year."
- Kathi Lynn Austin, world-renowned arms trafficking investigator; Executive Director, Conflict Awareness Project
“In his first three months working with my organization, Greg got me an interview with BBC World Service (the world's largest broadcaster); helped me transform what I thought was a PR crisis into a PR boon; trained me on public speaking, including how to respond to hecklers; figured out strategies to help me move long-stalled state legislation; and walked me through developing a communications plan for a huge upcoming project. In other words, Greg is a PR magician.”
- Fraidy Reiss, Founder and Executive Director, Unchained At Last
