Partnership over Presentation

We stand for Partnership over Presentation® meaning you always get substance, not shallow.

Partnership over Presentation® means so much to us, we got it trademarked.

Partnership Over Presentation® reflects our philosophy of creating deeper connections with our partners by investing in relationships and committing to responsibility. It’s surprisingly effective instead of just surprising. Our collaborative process builds mutual understanding and a shared investment in the outcome so that we’re working together for success. No big reveals. Just big results. Your challenge is our challenge. Your goals are our goals. Your success is our success. Let’s roll up our sleeves, together.

About Amanda

If you had to sum up Amanda Lucey in two words, they would be “Change Agent.” Amanda lives by the conviction that if you change your mindset, you can change your life.

Amanda founded her first marketing agency from her kitchen table. Within five years, she went on to acquire The Partnership, Atlanta’s oldest privately held marketing and communications agency with accolades from Inc. 5000, Forbes, American Marketing Association, Ragans Communications, Beckers Healthcare and more.

Now she stands as a leading communications authority and the CEO of The Partnership, with dual offices in Atlanta and Naples with employees across the nation. The Partnership provides transformational marketing, branding, and digital communications across healthcare, agriculture, and economic development to brands such as Children’s Healthcare, Coca Cola, International Continental Hotel Group, The Dairy Alliance and local Community Improvement Districts. Amanda’s expertise in navigating change and crisis communication is invaluable for our client partners such as Naples Comprehensive Health.

She has held executive roles in both the U.K. and U.S. governments, as well as the Southeast United Dairy Industry Association. She was the Vice Consul, Head of Political, Press and Public Affairs for the British Consulate General, in which she managed all media relations strategies and delivered the UK’s policy and public diplomacy priorities. She also served as a media correspondent and director of communications for the U.S. government and has extensive public affairs experience. Amanda is an accomplished public speaker, business owner and volunteer. She serves as a trustee with the University of West Georgia, is on the National Small Business Leadership Council and a member of the Cobb Chamber CEO Roundtable.
