Here is the list of things to do in order to be part of the new developments:
1. Prepare to have your subject-matter experts articulate your plan for the future.
2. Green and eco-friendly stores will be important, but only as they show others how to become more environmentally responsible- or demonstrate cutting-edge breakthrough that will alter the way we do things on a grand scale.
3. Prepare more minorities to serve as spokespeople and subject matter experts, because there will be a greater demand for their visibility.
Obama's campaign wrapped around "Change", but I never considered change would include myself and the profession I am aiming to be part of.
One thing to keep in mind is that PR will always be needed. Even in a struggling economy. Companies who are struggling but need to boost their sales/image may depend on a PR professional. "Don't forget, we're still here!" But definitely, definitely agree that we need to adjust our goals for new developments based on our current situations.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Tyler...
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with your comment Tyler. Bill Gates even said, "If I was down to my last dollar I would spend it on public relations." Public Relations will be just as important, if not more, with the current economic situation.
