Singapore – Joanne Wong has been appointed by FleishmanHillard as the new president of its Asia-Pacific division. Wong, who has nearly twenty years of experience, has previously worked for the agency in roles like executive vice president, managing director for client services, and head of business development for APAC. Wong previously worked at FTI Consulting Strategic Communications as a senior managing director before returning to FleishmanHillard.

In her new position, Wong will oversee FleishmanHillard’s operational performance across nine nations in the APAC region. Her responsibilities will also include managing the growth and financial performance of the region, fostering the development of productive teams and colleagues, and providing leadership that places a strong emphasis on respect, collaboration, and inclusion as fundamental organizational principles.

Wong held a leadership position in the APAC region during her first 19 years at FleishmanHillard and contributed to the region’s expansion and success over the previous 20 years. Her most recent position involved managing regional operations and profitability while working closely with general managers to promote business growth and talent acquisition and retention in key geographic markets.

She also led teams that served clients in a variety of industries, including healthcare, energy, technology, manufacturing, and others. She also established and oversaw the organization’s APAC financial Services, public affairs, and healthcare practices.

Wong serves as an advisor to C-suite executives, offering guidance on media and special situation responses, including crises and market strategies. She also presents regional trend analyses to global client’s leadership and boards.

John Saunders, president and CEO of FleishmanHillard, expressed, “I am thrilled to welcome Joanne back to the agency in this key role for our global network.” 

He added, “Joanne’s experience is steeped in consulting and client service. And she has a proven track record of growth achieved by supporting colleagues and teams, creating new paths and opportunities for high-performing employees. She will undoubtedly help us generate growth and commercial results in the region and globally, deepening relationships with our current clients and helping to define the future of our company.”

Speaking about her appointment, Wong said, “I am very excited to return to FleishmanHillard, which nurtured and built my dedication and expertise in the communications profession.” 

“I look forward to collaborating with the leadership team in the region to co-create a network that is recognized for our distinctive capabilities to problem-solve for clients, and as the destination for the best talent to achieve their most-rewarding career experience,” Wong added.
