Today’s spotlight: Sara Fleury

Title: Corporate communications director, Kitchell

Background: Fleury joined Kitchell after spending most of her career managing clients at BJC Public Relations.

Source of pride: “Long relationships. Before going in-house with Kitchell, they were a client for eight years. Our PR team has been together for a long time, and we maintain long, mutually respectful and valued relationships with our clients. These connections grow and expand even when our clients move to other roles.”

Essence of leadership: “Integrity. It’s critical to be able to trust that a leader is going to act in the best interest of an organization, while balancing other very important traits such as listening, communicating and maintaining a strong sense of humor.”
