Best of 2021!

In the first year of Messaging on a Mission, we produced 22 episodes, all of which were designed to help you think about your messaging strategy differently. We think they were all pretty good, but nonetheless, this episode covers conversations with:
Grace Moreno
Darren LaShelle
Kim Vanni
Tom King
Liz Page
Jamie Brogioli
Brian Forest
Michael Tate
Sharon McIntosh
Matt Montgomery
Our thanks to all of these guests and the many others who helped us create Messaging on a Mission this year.
Messaging on a Mission is produced and hosted by Douglas Spencer Douglas is founder and president at Spencer Brenneman, LLC. He has more than 30 years of branding and marketing experience, working with professionals from around the world in verticals such as financial and professional services, tech, higher education, healthcare, and not-for-profits. Before starting Spencer Brenneman, he was Vice President, Global Head of Brand Management for Thomson Reuters. In that role, he guided the migration of the multiple Thomson and Reuters businesses to form the then-new Thomson Reuters brand.
In 2020, after experiencing nearly a lifetime of both challenge and privilege, Douglas shifted the company’s focus exclusively to supporting the work of mission-driven organizations. By applying his experience and the talents of his virtual team, he knew he could help those who were helping us all.
A lifelong volunteer, including two years as chairman of a $100 million community health center and research institute, Douglas is intimately aware of the challenges facing mission-driven organizations. That first-hand experience helps Spencer Brenneman adapt the latest private-sector strategies to help not-for-profits, social enterprises, and B Corps sharpen their focus and create messaging that secures all the support they need to flourish in any environment.
Douglas graduated from Marietta College with a bachelor of arts in journalism and now serves on the college’s alumni association board of directors.
