Havas PR CEO & Trendspotter Marian Salzman 2014

Named one of the world's top five trendspotters, Marian is currently a finalist for PRWeek's Global Agency Professional of the Year and was among The Holmes Report's inaugural In2 Innovator 25 in 2013 and Business Insider's 25 Most Powerful People in PR the year before that. Among Marian's most famous consumer campaigns are the launch of the metrosexual to create a marketplace for SAB Miller's Peroni, Pepsi's "It's Like This," and "It's America Online." Her most notable campaign in the past few years was Wyclef Jean's short-lived run for president of his ravaged homeland.

In 2012, Marian was a PR juror for the CLIO Awards, part of the international PR jury at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, and one of the final judges to select candidates for Venture for America, a program for future entrepreneurs modeled after Teach for America.
