Les Eisner, VP of corporate communications for A+E Networks, has moved to Fox Broadcasting Co., as senior VP of corporate communications.
He takes a role vacated by Gaude Paez, who decamped for Hulu earlier this month. Fox Broadcasting is the broadcast TV network of 21st Century Fox.
Eisner led PR for Lifetime and A+E Studios at A+E. He previously started out on the agency side rising to EVP at The Lippin Group working the Starz Entertainment business, among other accounts.
Eisner worked in-house leading media relations at Fox's 20th Television and MyNetworkTV.
Eisner reports to Shannon Ryan, EVP of marketing and communications for Fox Television Group.
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.
