Promotion Recognizes Contributions to FINN, Practice Leadership and Continued Client Success and Growth
NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Finn Partners promotes Kristie Kuhl, JD, to managing partner from senior partner, with oversight for the New York and Chicago Health Groups and US Pharma Team. The promotion recognizes her contribution to clients, colleagues, growth and mobilizing account teams toward agency-wide values that inspire staff and client retention. Kuhl reports to Gil Bashe, managing partner, Global Health Practice.
Recognized as the US Healthcare Agency of the Year and a top five global healthcare agency by The Holmes Report, and most recently by the Observer as its #1 Power PR Firm in Health, the Finn Partners Health Practice is among the agency’s largest and fastest growing units.
“Clients seek more than service from an agency partner – they demand understanding on how to navigate successfully our complex health ecosystem so that their products and services are accessible to patients and providers and that requires exceptional talent,” said Gil Bashe, managing partner, Global Health Practice. “Kuhl has been recognized by the industry as a ‘Transformational Leader’ owing to her ability to create inspired and knowledgeable teams that elevate client service continuously.”
Kuhl joined Finn Partners in 2015 after having served as an executive vice president at both New York-based Cohn & Wolfe and Makovsky. During her tenure at these public relations agencies, she brought her knowledge of patient advocacy and the US reimbursement system to major brand initiatives.
“It’s an honor to work with Finn Partners colleagues across our offices in the service of clients and, most importantly, patients,” said Kristie Kuhl, JD, managing partner. “Good health, whether we seek to preserve, obtain or sustain, is one of life’s more important pursuits, and at FINN we are able to do well by harnessing our abilities to make a difference through our clients’ successes.”
“Our Health Practice has grown tremendously in the past four years and Kristie Kuhl has been an outstanding contributor to this achievement,” said Peter Finn, founding managing partner. “More and more biopharma innovators are seeking out our creativity and health-sector and great people tend to attract others who want to work hard and play nice.”
Kuhl received her law degree from Quinnipiac University and has leveraged her regulatory skills to ensure creativity can be harnessed to elevate patient awareness about disease symptoms and medical solutions. Honoring her achievements at FINN, PM360 Magazine named her one of the health industry’s inspirational leaders in 2017.
