Forbes Agency Council is an invitation-only professional community for owners and executives of successful public relations, media, communications, and advertising agencies. Members contribute articles published under the 📝Forbes brand and take part in a private peer network. 📝Cynthia Johnson is a member.
The council is one of several vocational communities operated by Forbes Councils, a membership organization Forbes built to extend its brand into curated professional networks. Membership is vetted against criteria including agency revenue and leadership tenure, and gives members a byline channel on Forbes.com alongside networking events and peer resources. For Johnson it is one of several editorial-and-membership platforms — alongside the 📝Young Entrepreneurs Council and the 📝Rolling Stone Culture Council — through which she has published on branding and marketing.
