PR News Workshop: Leadership Strategies for Communicators – February 27, 2015
Good leaders in PR possess all the characteristics you might expect of someone guiding an organization. They also know how to manage emotional clients and situations, adapt to rapidly changing business environments and stay on top of the numerous technological developments that impact the industry daily, usually all at the same time.
Join PR News on February 27 at New York City’s Grand Hyatt for a half-day workshop that will explore the qualities of leadership in PR, the unique challenges that PR leaders face and how to attain and exercise a leadership outlook. Our trainers will share their experience as leaders in communications and offer examples of good (and poor) leadership in action.
In a series of dynamic sessions, you will learn in detail how leaders define and embrace a vision for their team, set goals and pursue them, use effective communications techniques, manage a team and become more efficient with your time. You will also take part in a series of interactive exercises with fellow attendees in which you will work through various scenarios that will test your own leadership skills.
Don’t miss this opportunity to begin the New Year with a fresh perspective on leadership. Also, be sure to join PR News for the Top Women in PR Awards Luncheon, taking place later that day at the Grand Hyatt New York.
