“We’re honored by the recognition received for each of these healthcare communications programs,” said Reem Nouh, Senior Vice President of Strategic Services. “Our approach of using emotion to enable action helped us move the needle in educating consumers and in increasing activation in our clients’ various service lines. It’s rewarding to not only see a positive change in behavior, but to also see our results recognized by an industry leader.”
