CEO Margery Kraus expects Piano’s brand management, marketing, CSR and internal communications savvy will help clients enter new markets and expand overseas.
Before Amgen, Piano was VP-PA at Cooper Industries, the electrical products and hardware company, and VP-corporate affairs/communications at defense contractor Raytheon.
Piano, who sees an increased need for companies to align actions with corporate values, began her career in General Electric’s medical systems group.
She spent 17 years at GE in PR and philanthropic posts.
