Ian Sohn | About Me

My name is Ian Sohn. I have more than a decade of global strategic marketing, new media, strategic alliances, business development and public relations experience with some of the world's most valued brands like Nokia, Sony Music, Mattel, Universal Pictures and more.

I'm currently the group director and senior vice president of Ogilvy's 360° Digital Influence Group in Chicago.

I'm now based in the Windy City [my hometown] after spending the previous 10 years in New York.  I have 4 year old and 5 month-old sons, Henry and Maddox, and a beautiful wife, Sophie.

I hold a bachelor’s degree from the University of Wisconsin and an MBA from New York University.

In addition to Flagged For Follow Up, I contribute to the Ogilvy PR 360° Digital Influence blog and can be found on Twitter at @iansohn.

Finally [and sadly] I remain a committed Bears and Cubs fan - and will be raising my sons to do the same.

Here are some other ways to find me:

What Flagged For Follow Up is All About

While I enjoy blogs that are focused on one topic, I also enjoy those that meander a bit.  I shall meander ... if only slightly.  On any given day I might post about music, media, PR, advertising, technology, [here's where we get a bit off-topic] my family and the Chicago Cubs.

This blog is not a bully pulpit from which I will be quick to criticize.  But I will constructively criticize on occasion, and will certainly add my opinion when warranted.

My intention from day one was to point out people, places, things and ideas that strike my fancy for one reason or another. Those things that I've "Flagged for Follow Up" and want to share with others.

If there's anything you want me to post or have any questions, drop me an email ian[dot]sohn2[at]yahoo[dot]com or leave a comment.
