14 years of Michele Markham at EAG. In that time, she has had the compassionate courage to tell many business owners their baby is ugly (when the baby was, in fact, ugly). She has taken a red marker to more rough drafts than we can count. She has pre-gamed to quiz the account team with questions a business owner is likely to ask. And she’s been right roughly every time.
It's a lot to live up to. It's also exactly why this place works the way it does.
Because underneath the honesty and the red ink is someone who's spent 14 years doing more than running campaigns: building on EAG’s already solid foundation, sharpening the culture, continuing to raise standards, planning for the next marketing disruption, shaping the team into what it is today. Hard work, high expectations, and a whole lot of "here's how we make this better."
She'd never say any of that herself. She's not a spotlight person. So today, we're the ones holding the flashlight, whether she's ready or not.
Happy workiversary, Michele.
