Co-Founder Mimi Kalinda will transition from the Managing Director role to take on the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) function.<\/p>\n<p>Founded five years ago as the first African-owned pan-African and fully integrated communications and public relations firm, ACG began by offering strategic, culturally-attuned services to clients in the social impact space. The agency has since expanded to servicing major multi-nationals across the continent in addition to clients outside of Africa\u2019s borders with an interest in reaching stakeholders on the continent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe growth of ACG over the past five years both in our client portfolio and the services that we offer demands an experienced visionary with solid communications and public relations skills. This is a foundation which Nonye effortlessly brings to the firm. Her vision and passion for the development of Africa are also aligned to our core values as an agency. I am thrilled about her appointment, which I am confident will add tremendous value to ACG\u2019s next phase of growth,\u201d Kalinda said.<\/p>\n<p>Omotola is a Communications and Brand Specialist with more than 15 years\u2019 strategic brand experience gained in the UK, South Africa and Nigeria, contributing to a number of African media titles. She started her career in London at Maynard Leigh Associates before joining TMP Worldwide, and has worked in several leading firms in Europe and in other parts of Africa including Jupiter Drawing Room, FCB Durban; and Insight Grey, Lagos, where she was Director of Strategic Planning and New Business Omotola was also the Group Head of Corporate Communications at Oceanic Bank Nigeria, where she was successful in the turnaround of the brand, leading to its acquisition by Ecobank. Until recently, she was the Business Director, Africa, at Vuma Reputation Management.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am excited about the opportunity to drive and build the ACG team and to create an impact in Africa in the process,\u201d says Omotola. \u201cACG is a Pan-African communications agency that understands the requirements of the global and pan-African client, servicing them with the highest regard for international best practices and a deep understanding of stakeholder sensibilities. The agency\u2019s objectives are a match for my personal vision: taking cognisance of local insights and matching them to client\u2019s business needs and enabling them to tell a more compelling African story. My goal is to further position ACG as the leading African-owned, Pan-African agency, producing communications strategies that are culturally attuned to the diversity of the continent\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za.<\/p>\n<p><small><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/africa-communications-media-group-appoints-new-md\/\">MyPR<\/a><\/small><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/submit\">Submit your own Press Release<\/a> or get free content for your publication.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video &#8211; How to post your Press Release on MyPR:<\/strong><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9ovzdChGkuU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><small>My Press Release (MyPR) provides free South African targeted content and press releases for on and off line publishers and media.
