Jennifer Erickson, General Electric's chief communications officer, is joining Mastercard Sept. 23 as executive VP, global communications.
Responsible for corporate, internal, external and digital communications, she will help deliver Mastercard's pitch of leading the world beyond cash.
Erickson will report to Raja Rajamannar, chief marketing & communications officer and healthcare president.
She joined GE after a 15-year stint at Motorola, where she was CCO and then communications head of Motorola Mobility after the corporate split-up.
Senior-most communications executives in the Fortune 500 earned between $50,000 and $100,000 more this year than they did two years ago, according to a recent survey of chief communications officers.
The pressure is on PR pros to make sure corporate messaging remains clear and cohesive. Business jargon is an obstacle to achieving this goal.
In today's volatile world of constant disruption, the ability to offer reliability and dependability is more valuable than ever.
