Celebrating Excellence: Ascendant Named a Top 100 PR Agency in the World


A Legacy of Influence and Innovation 

Ascendant is honored to be recognized by the Luxury Lifestyle Awards as one of the Top 100 PR Agencies in the World. This distinction is particularly meaningful as it follows our 20th anniversary, marking two decades of redefining personal branding for CEOs, executives, and high-performing individuals across major business hubs like New York and Philadelphia.

When we launched Ascendant, the goal was clear: help leaders craft powerful, authentic narratives that drive influence and impact. Over the years, we’ve seen firsthand that a CEO’s personal brand isn’t just an asset—it’s a driving force behind business growth, reputation, and long-term success.


Staying Ahead While Staying True 

In the ever-changing world of PR and branding, staying ahead of trends is critical. But what has set Ascendant apart is our ability to innovate while staying true to our foundation. We don’t believe in chasing the latest industry buzzwords or forcing leaders into a template. Instead, we amplify their unique voice, vision, and values, ensuring their personal brand remains a strategic differentiator.


Whether advising a fintech disruptor in New York or a healthcare visionary in Philadelphia, we bring customized strategies that align with our clients’ unique markets and goals. The recognition from Luxury Lifestyle Awards represents the trust our clients place in us, the bold strategies we’ve pioneered, and the measurable results we’ve delivered.


What This Recognition Means for Our Clients

This award reaffirms what our clients have known for years: strategic CEO branding is essential in today’s marketplace.


A company’s reputation is no longer shaped solely by corporate messaging—it’s shaped by the leaders behind the brand. Investors, business partners, employees, and even the media look to a company’s executives as a reflection of its values, stability, and long-term potential.


According to industry research:

  • 95% of investors consider a CEO’s reputation before making investment decisions. A well-positioned CEO influences market confidence while leading their company. Investors want to back companies with visionary, credible, and media-savvy leaders who can navigate challenges and drive sustained growth.

  • 93% of business leaders say a company’s reputation affects their willingness to form partnerships. Strategic alliances and high-value deals don’t happen in a vacuum. They’re built on trust, credibility, and alignment in leadership values. CEOs with a strong personal brand are more likely to attract meaningful collaborations and industry-defining partnerships.

  • 88% of employees consider a company’s leadership before deciding where to work. Top talent follows inspiring leaders. A CEO’s personal brand plays a critical role in talent acquisition and retention, shaping the culture and attractiveness of an organization.


The Next Chapter: Expanding Our Global Impact

This milestone is both a celebration and a call to action. As we step into our third decade, we’re committed to continuing to push boundaries, elevate leaders, and deliver game-changing branding strategies that transform careers and businesses alike—from New York boardrooms to Philadelphia innovation hubs.


To our incredible team, visionary clients, and strategic partners—thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to the next 20 years of impact.
