PROFILE |
 |
Edelman Public Relations Worldwide enjoys the scrimmage among image-makers. The PR firm is the largest independent agency in the industry, conducting work for heavy hitters such as AT&T, Daimler-Chrysler, General Motors, and Microsoft. With more than 40 offices worldwide, its offerings include corporate reputation services, crisis management, diversity marketing, event and sponsorship marketing, interactive services, research and planning, and public affairs. Edelman has fiercely guarded its independent status in the industry, and founder, chairman, and owner Daniel Edelman maintains his philosophy that public relations and advertising should be separate functions for separate agencies.
