Spanish term or phrase: Comunicador
Hola colegas.
Esto trata del perfil profesional del Director de una empresa en el campo de la comunicación. Honestamente, no me hace feliz el término "communicator" y pienso que quizá exista algo mejor.

El término en español aparece así: Primer ***comunicador aprobado por el programa de acreditación de la XXX y en 19XX fue reconocido como el ***Comunicador del Año por la XXXX.

Agradezco su ayuda de antemano.
Saludos:-)

  -> Hi, thanks, yes, I thought about that, but I think the plural would more liklely imply "communications technology" - I may be wrong though!

Asker: Thank you, Marian. That was very kind of you and is greatly appreciated. Indeed, I later discovered that "Communicator" is in fact widely used. At the time, it just didn't sit right! So much for likes and dislikes!! Thanks again:-))
