CONSULTING

John MacDonald is a Helena, Montana-based consultant and former reporter, correspondent and editor for The Associated Press. His 16-year career with the world’s largest news organization gave him a unique perspective on how companies, governments, organizations and individuals worked with the media and how they prepared for and responded to a crisis. Some did it well. Many did not.

Today, he calls on that experience to help clients build sound communications and public affairs strategies. Whether it’s developing a comprehensive crisis communication plan, providing specialized media training or leading large media relations efforts, MacDonald ensures clients get it right the first time.

His clients include large, multi-national corporations, state and federal government agencies as well as small nonprofits, all of whom often find themselves in need of media and public affairs expertise.
