Communications & Events
Libby Fordham has worked as a freelance PR professional for the past twenty years. She has been engaged by Government, business, community and the not-for-profit sectors in areas of transport, infrastructure, sustainability, major events, health, policy delivery and lifestyle among other things.
Her approach is ethical, creative and inclusive. She is excited by progressive thinking that reflects the changing world. And she doesn't do old world PR. Ever.
Her experience captures all the traditional requirements of a consummate professional such as campaign strategy, stakeholder engagement, media relations, issues management, internal communications and digital engagement. Increasingly, she is interested in working with progressive clients who are willing to invest in long-term communication relationships and real engagement, and less on the spun tabloid headline.
Libby's work has seen her work alongside Prime Ministers, Federal Ministers, famous oracles, community leaders and the people on the street, whose messages are often the most important.
She is on the Board of Governors for the Communication Research Institute, an independent, not-for-profit membership organisation with an international reputation for inventing, testing, and applying best practices in communication in business and government, for the public good.
Over the time, she has been a spokesperson, TV panellist, book reviewer, ghost writer and creator of ad copy. She was also once an advertising hand model, but that's a story for another day. Lately, she writes stuff, pursues social justice outcomes for communities, creates culinary magic and spends time in the company of life's interesting characters.
