For the second consecutive year, I’m delighted to announce that PAN Communications has been recognized as a ‘Top Place to Work’ by the Orlando Business Journal. The annual ‘Best Places to Work’ awards recognize Central Florida’s leading businesses and executives who make it a priority to create a positive work environment for their employees. Companies that were recognized in this list were scored by their own employees, based on values such as collaboration, compensation and management practices.

I’m extremely proud of PAN Southeast for achieving this accolade, and it’s truly special to see that PAN culture holds true in all of our offices. From the very beginning, I envisioned PAN culture as a creative, diverse and innovative environment, and it’s incredible to see the agency prove this year over year.

This recognition stems from an extremely successful quarter of awards for our agency. Most notably, these awards included:

• The Holmes Report recognized PAN in two of its annual lists related to the PR industry
• The Publicity Club of New England’s Bell Ringer Awards recognized PAN in six categories
• The American Business Awards presented PAN with a Silver Stevie Award for Company of the Year – Advertising, Marketing & Public Relations
• The North American Excellence Awards recognized PAN for Dyn’s crisis communications campaign and awarded PAN two honorable mentions for SAP Finance and PAN’s website redesign

We will continue to expand our talent in the Southeast region – from Atlanta to Miami – and I look forward to seeing this culture prosper and grow.
