About
Tim Maleeny is the Chief Client Strategy & Integration Officer for Quad, a leading marketing experience company. Prior to joining Quad's leadership team, Tim was Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer for Havas North America, a global communications company. He's held a variety of leadership roles across the marketing industry, including Head of Strategy for Ogilvy, Executive Director of Brand & Marketing Strategy at R/GA, and Managing Partner at Deloitte. A true hybrid, Tim has also worked as a copywriter, producer, and new business director over the course of his career. And with a degree in computer science, he's a technophile at heart who's been relentless in expanding agencies' digital and CX capabilities. Tim is known for driving record new business growth and building award-winning cultures wherever he goes. As a strategist, his campaigns have won at Cannes, WARC, Effies, and the Jay Chiat Awards. He pioneered a narrative approach to integrated campaigns, which makes sense since he’s the bestselling author of six novels and multiple award-winning short stories. The comedic thriller JUMP was called “a perfectly blended cocktail of escapism” by Publishers Weekly, and his latest novel Hanging The Devil received a starred review from Library Journal for its “relentlessly fast-paced plot and delightful dry humor.” Always active as a mentor across the marketing community, Tim connects great people wherever he finds them. This will be his ninth year as a mentor for Women-in-Power, the cross-sector fellowship sponsored by 92Y, and last year he was named a Talent Champion by the ANA's educational foundation. Tim currently lives in Tribeca with his wife, two daughters, and far too many books.
