Working together

What does Fazzina & Co. do?

Fazzina & Co. Communications Consulting, Inc. provides senior strategic communications, public relations, media relations and fractional communications leadership, with a deep specialization in healthcare and life sciences. Leigh Fazzina founded the firm in 2008.

What are the ways to work with Leigh?

There are three: hire Leigh directly as a senior communications consultant, engage her as a Fractional Chief Communications Officer, or have her assemble and lead a customized team. See how engagements work.

How is this different from a traditional PR agency?

Traditional agencies often build teams around their own staffing structure. Fazzina & Co. builds around your needs: Leigh stays closely involved in the strategy, decisions and work, and experienced senior professionals join only when an assignment calls for them.

Is my organization too small to work with Fazzina & Co.?

No. You can hire Leigh directly as a senior communications consultant for a single project, a launch or an ongoing program, with no need to engage a broader team.

Can Fazzina & Co. take on larger assignments?

Yes. When an assignment requires more expertise or capacity, Leigh assembles and leads a customized team of experienced communications professionals, drawing on her professional network and relationships through The Public Relations Collective.

Do you only work in healthcare?

No. Healthcare and life sciences are Fazzina & Co.'s deepest specialization, but the firm also works with organizations in other industries that need senior counsel in communications strategy, corporate reputation, media relations, executive visibility and thought leadership.

Fractional CCO

What is a fractional Chief Communications Officer?

A senior communications executive who leads an organization's communications on a part-time or project basis. You get C-suite judgment, strategy and team oversight without a full-time executive hire. More on fractional leadership.

When does a fractional CCO make sense?

When you're growing, building a communications function, between communications leaders, preparing for a major milestone, or when your CEO needs a trusted communications counselor.

Healthcare & life sciences

Which healthcare sectors do you work in?

Pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, patient advocacy, animal health, nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, medical foods, consumer health, health and wellness, and hospitals and health systems.

Do you work outside healthcare?

Yes. Healthcare is a specialty, not a limitation. Fazzina & Co. also works with organizations in other industries that need senior communications strategy, public relations, executive visibility and thought leadership.
