I worked with Susan Malecki for the first time at Kaiser Permanente (KP), Northern California, on a promotional campaign she had been leading for three facilities. “Live Well, Be Well” was a region wide, high profile KP campaign which involved all KP personnel, vendors, political dignitaries and local leaders. For this campaign, Susan Malecki assembled a diverse advisory group of volunteers, and she engaged them in frequent brainstorming sessions with multiple professionals and external vendors. Throughout the process, she demonstrated strong communications skills and an understanding of marketing techniques and inclusiveness. The campaign end product reflected the highest levels of creativity, integrity, and effectiveness, and it was a show case in public relations and programs management for other regions.
Susan effectively planned, implemented and managed major events for KP; she secured major newsworthy speakers and coordinated, with a very detailed and organized schedule, all agendas, media coverage and promotional materials. Susan excelled at preparing business scenarios and promotional budgets, never losing sight of the dependability of available funding and maximized end product. Susan revealed a natural ability to write top of the line pitch letters, from every kind of angle, selling ideas and inspiring.
Susan Malecki has a long track record and ability to resourcefully manage and prioritize multiple promotional projects simultaneously, with a high level of integrity, connectedness, persistence, enthusiasm and going beyond the call of duty. She has the ability to involve and motivate people to participate in programs and campaigns. Through her PR campaigns, she helped our name brand “Be Well Live Well” gain positive media exposure nationwide. Susan is a strong leader who is gifted in doing business with people from different cultures and backgrounds, and she is the ultimate professional and diplomat when leading any project.
She will be a valuable asset to any company, and I strongly recommend her.
