Adam Beeson has more than 20 years of experience developing and implementing strategies to differentiate and effectively position organizations for success. He has established a reputation for effectively building the communications function for businesses and organizations across the nation. His career began in 2000, in the chaotic world of Chicagoland politics and resulted in successfully placing candidates in Congress and the Illinois House of Representatives. After seven years of government and political work, Adam transitioned to healthcare and healthcare technology.

Adam has been a two-time Amendola client before joining the agency as Senior Account Director, where he sets the strategic direction for a variety of hospital, pharma and healthcare/health tech-focused clients.

Working with the industry-leading team at Aurora Healthcare, he established award-winning media relations, groundbreaking social media efforts, managed many complex crisis communications, and brought the organization’s perspectives regarding healthcare reform to a national audience. In the provider space, Adam recognized the need to balance the community’s trust in Aurora with

the organization’s desire to influence the evolution of the U.S. healthcare system. These efforts led to continual year-over-year market share growth, while helping to secure Aurora’s participation in many of the nation’s most advanced healthcare reform pilot programs.

Following an eight-year stint in the healthcare provider space, he made the switch to the technology industry, and ultimately healthcare tech. With G2 Crowd, he built the start-up organization’s media relations, social media, internal communications, blog, and brand marketing functions. These efforts helped to revolutionize the B2B software buying function, bringing more than one-million monthly users to the site. But he recognized that something was lacking, and he missed healthcare.

His unique understanding of healthcare, technology and government brought him to Chicago-based Kaufman Hall. He established a full communications function for the company’s healthcare and higher education consulting and ERP software businesses, which achieved record-breaking growth.

Adam earned a BA in English from the University of Iowa.
