Vice President of Corporate Engagement
Monsanto

Madrazo holds one of the toughest jobs in the communications world — managing Monsanto’s chequered corporate reputation. The Mexican took on the role in 2013 after previously leading corporate affairs, and is charged with presenting a more transparent, friendly face for a company that is among the world’s most fiercely criticized. So far, his efforts have resulted in Monsanto being named one of the world’s top 100 corporate citizens by CR Magazine, which flagged the company’s “commitment to stakeholder engagement, the environment, addressing climate change through adaptation and mitigation, and increasing transparency regarding its operations.”
