OMG (Omnicom Media Group) NA CEO Ralph Pardo, OMD Worldwide CEO George Manas and OMD USA CEO Chrissie Hanson all have something in common. All were previously named Adweek Media All Stars before ascending to CEO roles, representing a coalescence of top agency talent at the highest org level.

All three are relatively new to their leadership roles. Manas took on his last fall, followed by Pardo this March and Hanson just last month. They each received Media All Star recognition, beginning with Pardo in 2018, Manas in 2021 and Hanson this May. 

Each leaders’ skill set dovetails with major industry themes that defined the years of their accolades.
