ICCO (International Communications Consultancy Association) has selected the
first six PR professionals to its International Hall of Fame.
The six include Jean Leopold Schuybroek, CEO of Belgium's largest independent
PR firm and PROI Partner agency, Interel Mariën. The others are Harold
Burson, Burson-Marsteller, David Drobis, Chairman, Ketchum, Anne Forest, CEO,
Golin Harris Asia, Peter Hehir, ex-Chairman, Countrywide Porter Novelli and
Michael Morley, Deputy Chairman, Edelman.
Schuybroek is Vice-President of ICCO and President of the BelgianAssociation
of PR Consultants (ABCRP). He is also a former Vice-President of PROI.
The Hall of Fame was created to give public recognition to leaders of public
relations firms who have made major contributions to the international growth
of the public relations business.
According to ICCO, while there are many in the pr industry who have been involved
in the international growth of their firms there are a few who have participated
in international and national associations, who have spoken at meetings and
who have written books and articles that have helped build the stature of the
agency business and create opportunities for the world wide growth of our business.
ICCO was created in 1986 to unite the agency business and spearhead the development
of best practices as the pr business grew around the world. The association
has 32 member nations.
The selection of the first inductees was made by members of the ICCO Board
with support from the editors of PR Week.
