I have had the privilege of working on Ron’s team twice throughout my professional career. He welcomed me into the Corporate Communications team at CBRE and continuously nurtured my creativity and growth throughout the six years we worked together. When I started my family in 2012 and encountered complications, Ron fully supported me and pioneered remote working when it was just a figment of the corporate world’s imagination. Thanks to him, I never had to sacrifice my career for motherhood; I am forever grateful for that. Fast-forward to 2023: I had the privilege of working with Ron again at PPM, which gave me an incredible opportunity to grow professionally and significantly impact the company’s future marketing goals.

Not only is Ron a brilliant and innovative expert in marketing, but he is also an outstanding leader. His unrelenting dedication to his team and their success is a true testament to his character and integrity. Any team that has Ron as its leader can consider itself honored, and I truly hope our paths cross again. He’s the absolute greatest!

Ron is one of the most experienced marketing and event production professionals I’ve had the pleasure of working with within the corporate real estate industry. He has a remarkable ability to help leaders identify the “why?” behind their organization’s purpose and convey that message in a multi-channel strategy. He managed a marketing team and external copy editors at PPM and led the integration of Salesforce as our company’s sales and CRM platform. He and his team ran a successful brand awareness campaign on LinkedIn and other advertising outlets to target specific sectors of our industry. With a dry sense of humor, leadership presence, and calmness through any “proposal storm”, I highly endorse Ron for any executive or leadership marketing/ event/ client experience role.

It’s rare to find a more high-functioning working partnership than I had with Ron Houghtaling. Ron brings not only an extensive history in Marketing but an obvious passion for the evolution of his people and teams. On the many projects we delivered, Ron was a creative visionary who understood the agile approach and consistently delivered functional products on time and under budget. He is an absolute pro at rallying the troops and driving positive morale because he consistently demonstrates dedication, drive, and quality. He made a significant impact on our teams in a short time and continued to replicate that success throughout his tenure. One of the best!
