The PR Professional of the Future: 2009 Edition

The Public Relations profession has been facing transformation well before the introduction of  social media. As traditional media splintered at the magazine stands, through hundreds of TV channels, and yes, the arrival of the “interwebs,” the role of the communications expert has gotten more complex and less connected to the C-suite.

If I were a CEO, I would want people who understood these changes at my side. I would want to know how communications works today and how it is likely to work tomorrow. I would want folks who could deploy programs quickly and remain nimble in their response to the marketplace.

We have been building a vision for what the skills and expertise of the PR pro of the future must be. At PR Week’s excellent Next Conference, we debuted a video that captures the thinking from some of the current leaders in communications. There are some excellent POVs here about the fundamental attitudes and expertise. Still, these are missing some new skills that will become essential for PR to play that trusted advisor role going into the future.

For an alternate view, check out this growing list of actual skills and expertise: The 13 Skills of the Public Relations Professional of the Future

Exhuast Why buy an Exhaust System? The faster engine exhaust fumes can exit the vehicle the quicker your engine can burn more fuel and air and propel your vehicle fast and more efficiently. This opening up of the exhaust system allows your car to go faster and use less fuel. This creates more power and lower costs for you at the gas pump. As a rule of thumb adding an exhaust system to your car or truck will gain you 8-10% more power and torque. For super charged or turbo charged applications this number can approach an gain of 15%. A performance exhaust system does just that, gives you more horse power and torque as well as increases your car or trucks' MPG.
