Unique team. Winning approaches.
To us, the realities of today drive our passion. Our professional backgrounds, academic achievements, and personal philosophies are inextricably bound to our corporate values.
In an increasingly intense world where breaking news never stops, it’s important to have a fully engaged team that remains in tune with trends and influencers, and legitimately cares about the world in which they live.
Fortunate to have worked on numerous projects ranging from local stakeholder engagement initiatives for community agencies to creating strategic plans for regulatory bodies and designing complex global communications and marketing strategies for the United Nations to achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals; leaders across Canada and around the world are reaching out to work with MDR.
Why? Because when you combine effective strategies to achieve success with a highly experienced team and an unconditional resolve to make the world a better place, you’ve got that perfect foundation to create meaningful change.
