Karen Floyd has led affiliated yet distinct companies, all under The Palladian Group banner she founded in 1997. Recognized as one of the most dynamic CEOs in the Southeast, Floyd is a high-demand speaker and consultant on a variety of corporate and business development issues.
With seven divisions – Palladian Marketing, Palladian Digital, The Palladian Group – Public Affairs, Palladian Development, Palladian Productions, Palladian View and Palladian Publications – The Palladian Group is well into its second decade of operations. The Palladian Group has been recognized nationally for its work, and its roster of clients includes some of the most influential and successful companies and organizations in their respective fields.
Palladian Marketing’s expertise lies in marketing and public relations through quantitative and qualitative analysis, strategy, tactics and all-inclusive implementation. Palladian Marketing functions as the organizational and operational hub for all Palladian entities (except for The Palladian Group – Public Affairs where state ethics laws dictate).
Palladian Digital builds complex systems, processes and devices that integrate data. Our objective is to position the latest innovative technologies. Digital spans the spectrum from website design/build to research and development (R&D) across a broad spectrum of information technology paradigms.
The Palladian Group – Public Affairs offers clients the public affairs savvy that can only be obtained through years of work in the Legislative and Executive branches. Working as embedded members of The Palladian Group, TPG-PA ensures each of those efforts is consistent with the client’s external messaging plan and the unique (and often delicate) political, policy, fiscal, demographic, geographic, or other sensitivities of each public sector stakeholder group.
Palladian Development creates one-of-a kind fundraising campaigns. Our fundraising process involves goal evaluation, development of the organization’s case for support, creation of campaign plans, cultivating leaders and prospects and the coordination of efforts through the completion of the campaign. Since its inception, The Palladian Group has worked with the not-for-profit and for-profit sectors in the fundraising capacity and through many years of service, the Development focus grew into an expertise with Foundations with special emphasis on branding and re-positioning.
Palladian Productions was born from necessity. After years of outsourcing the filming of commercials, documentaries and simple website vignettes, The Palladian Group formed a production company that serves clients through all stages including concept development, casting, shooting, editing and screening.
Palladian Publication communicates through print materials – from collateral pieces and annual reports to a glossy magazine. Its cornerstone is ELYSIAN, an elegant quarterly magazine with intriguing and thought provoking content that is distributed regionally to a women-centric audience.
ELYSIAN strives to serve the reader with both beautiful visuals and alluring content. While ELYSIAN is woman-centric, it is also a regional resource, spotlighting the arts, culture, beauty, style, dining, drink, philanthropy, health, fitness, home, travel and exploration. These extrinsic experiences build a breadth of knowledge that encompass the authentic ELYSIAN reader.
As travelers and collectors of the finer things, our founders created the Colibri Collection to coalesce Love, Joy & Beauty. Globally, the name represents the graceful hummingbird. Integrating their different styles, they have created a collection for the most discerning eye. Each piece unique: each story a memory.
