Paul Hicks - Executive Vice President of Communications for the NFL
When the NFL faced the nightmare scenario of a lockout last year, Hicks, who was hired in July 2010, mainly to assist in bringing a resolution to the impasse between owners and players, was a key driver not only in getting an agreement done, but in making sure fans were kept top of mind throughout.
His agency background, including eight years as regional CEO of the Americas at Ogilvy PR, and preceding years spent in Washington, give him a unique perspective in the sports world. It has also helped the NFL think more broadly about outreach efforts on topics such as player safety and its philanthropic endeavors.
