messaging for law firms, corporate clients and nonprofits. He has written and spoken extensively on crisis communications and how companies of all sizes can protect and promote their reputations when it matters most.
His client work reflects the breadth and depth of that expertise. George has counseled some of the nation’s leading law firms, multi-billion-dollar financial services companies, motorsports entities and corporate clients facing high-stakes, bet-the-company crisis matters — situations where the right message, delivered the right way, can make all the difference.
A Pulitzer Prize-winning editor, George served as state editor and executive business editor at The Miami Herald, then as a top editor at the Houston Chronicle, where he directed coverage of the Enron trials, investigations into the federal judiciary and complex business issues. His leadership of the newsroom’s coverage of Hurricane Ike in 2008 earned a Pulitzer finalist nod for innovative digital reporting.
As editorial director of ALM Media, he led a global newsroom of more than 100 journalists and iconic brands including The American Lawyer, National Law Journal and Texas Lawyer — transforming them into digital-first operations while launching new products and spearheading the company’s industry-leading rankings and recognition events.
A Miami native, George is deeply committed to community service and serves on the boards of GableStage Theatre Company and Mosaic Miami.
