Maryland Small Business Owner Brynne Krispin Honored as One of The Daily Record’s Leading Women Under 40

The list highlights dynamic young women who are making significant contributions to their communities and industries

FREDERICK, Md., Sept. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Cause Fokus is proud to announce that its Founder and CEO, Brynne Krispin, has been recognized by The Daily Record as one of this year’s Leading Women Under 40. This prestigious award highlights dynamic young women who are making significant contributions to their communities and industries, excelling in their professions, and setting an example for the next generation of leaders.

“This recognition reflects the hard work and passion I have for supporting leaders who are making a difference in the world.” – Brynne Krispin, Founder and CEO, Cause Fokus

Brynne Krispin’s recognition is a testament to her dedication to empowering social impact organizations through Cause Fokus, a social media agency specializing in thought leadership and personal branding for purpose-driven executives.

In just one year, Krispin’s unwavering dedication and strategic acumen propelled Cause Fokusto unprecedented heights. Under her guidance, the agency experienced extraordinary growth, expanding its revenue by 238%.
Furthermore, Krispin’s commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment has been evident in her efforts to expand her remote team from 2 to 10 members. Knowing the social media industry has one of the [highest burnout rates, she remains committed to building a culture where innovation, curiosity, and work-life balance flourish.

Krispin’s impact extends far beyond the realm of business. As a single parent and active member of her community in Frederick, MD, she “embodies the values of compassion, empathy, and social responsibility,” according to the Leading Women Under 40 award.

In addition to her professional endeavors, Krispin generously volunteers her time and expertise, serving on the board of the Friends of the Child Advocacy Center and is a member of the Frederick Key City Rotary Club, Walkersville Business & Professional Association, and Washington Women in PR. Her dedication to giving back underscores her deep-rooted commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

“I am incredibly humbled and honored to be included in this group of inspiring women,” said Krispin. “This recognition reflects the hard work and passion I have for supporting leaders who are making a difference in the world. I believe that telling their stories with empathy and compassion can truly transform how we drive change, and I’m grateful to be part of that journey.”

The Daily Record’s Leading Women Under 40 award recognizes not only professional achievements but also dedication to community involvement and mentorship. Krispin’s work with Cause Fokus is deeply aligned with these values, as the agency continues to provide essential support to leaders in the nonprofit and social impact sectors.

While working as a social media manager at International Justice Mission in Washington, DC, Krispin started noticing this trend: the social media campaigns that integrated a personal account in addition to the brand’s social accounts produced the highest results. “People want to connect with people, not a logo,” Krispin said.

Following a mix of instincts and data, Krispin began testing and experimenting with social media strategies that leverage the influence and credibility of individuals rather than just a company’s brand.

“With the rise of thought leadership and the importance of building an executive presence online, it became clear that the more we tapped into an individual’s expertise – their stories, perspectives, and experience – the faster we saw audience growth, engagement, and brand loyalty increase.

“As we enter into a new era of AI, deep fakes, and feeling overwhelmed by the options that are available to us online, the more we’re seeing people crave real, authentic human connection with leaders they know and trust. This isn’t a trend that’s going away – it’s the future of social media,” Krispin said.

Cause Fokus was also honored as one of DC’s Top 10 Best New Advertising Startup Revolutionizing the US Market by BestStartUp.com in January 2024.
Since its founding in 2022, Cause Fokus has helped hundreds of leaders in the social impact sector build their online presence, amplify their voices, and elevate their impact in the communities they serve.

Mercy Executive Named Among Top Data/AI Leaders in Nation

Published

on

By

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Mercy’s industry-leading work in data and artificial intelligence has placed Byron Yount, PhD, chief data and AI officer and vice president of transformation operations, in good company with two prestigious organizations – the Gartner Research Board and Artificial Intelligence 150 (AI150) by Constellation Research. Both groups recognize innovative leadership from around the world in the fast-growing area of AI.

“It’s humbling to be listed among the leading voices in AI, and a testament to Mercy’s long commitment to innovation.”

Yount first joined the St. Louis-based health system in 2014 and has served in his current role since September 2023. He has been instrumental in Mercy’s development and use of AI to improve patient care by tapping into more than a decade of de-identified data in electronic health records. He has also been key in the collaboration with Mayo Clinic, as Mercy became the first health system to join the Mayo Clinic Platform_Connect.

The Gartner Research Board (GRB) brings together the most influential business leaders into a global forum in which members can test their thinking, gain a comprehensive view of the future and accelerate their impact. Mercy’s Yount is now one of many representing large-scale organizations that are part of this exclusive board, which are comprised of Fortune 500 organizations leading their respected industries.

The 2024 Constellation Research AI150 is an elite list of executives leading AI transformation efforts around the globe. In the inaugural year for the list, nominations from peers, industry influencers, technology vendors and analysts were included in a six-month selection process. Each executive on the list demonstrates an understanding of how the business environment is transforming in response to digital and exponential technologies –technologies that double in capability or performance over a short period of time – and are actively preparing their companies to excel during and after the transformation. 

“It’s humbling to be listed among the luminaries and leading voices in AI from around the world, and a testament to Mercy’s long commitment to digital innovation,” Yount said. “AI is becoming increasingly common, vital and advanced for all industries. I’m proud to work with a world-class team dedicated to harnessing its power to create a meaningful, equitable impact for our patients and care teams.”

“This rapidly evolving field has pioneers, policy shapers and practitioners that will transform industries,” noted R “Ray” Wang, founder and CEO at Constellation Research. “The AI150 is our attempt of identifying a small slice of the innovators and change agents who are making substantial contributions to the advancement of this revolution.”

Mercy is a founding member of Coalition for Health AI (CHAI), an organization whose mission is to be the trusted source of guidelines for responsible AI in health. Yount worked with other CHAI members to draft an AI Assurance Standards Guide, recently released, which provides considerations to ensure standards are met in the deployment of AI in health care.

Mercy, one of the 20 largest U.S. health systems and named the top large system in the U.S. for excellent patient experience by NRC Health, serves millions annually with nationally recognized care and one of the nation’s largest and highest performing Accountable Care Organizations in quality and cost. Mercy is a highly integrated, multi-state health care system including more than 50 acute care and specialty (heart, children’s, orthopedic and rehab) hospitals, convenient and urgent care locations, imaging centers and pharmacies. Mercy has over 900 physician practice locations and outpatient facilities, more than 4,500 physicians and advanced practitioners and 50,000 co-workers serving patients and families across Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Mercy also has clinics, outpatient services and outreach ministries in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. In fiscal year 2023 alone, Mercy provided more than half a billion dollars of free care and other community benefits, including traditional charity care and unreimbursed Medicaid.
