President’s Note: Mid-Year Check In
Congratulations to all the winners of the 62nd annual Virginia Public Relations Awards. What an incredible evening we had – even with the wild summer thunderstorm! I was thrilled to see so many of you representing your companies and clients and was honored to be among some of the most talented PR minds in Richmond.On June 24, we’ll hear from many of the area’s top PR pros as they share insights for communicating in times of change – a timely topic for all of us. Following the lunchtime presentation, we’ll host a more in-depth program focusing on change in both the corporate and non-profit worlds. No matter where you work, I’m sure you’ll take some good information away from these informative sessions.
After our June program, we’ll take a summer break but will be back in September with an exciting program about social media. As always, our web site will remain updated throughout the summer so be sure to check it for news about summer activities and fall programs.
As I look forward to my next six months as president of this chapter, I’m excited about meeting and working with even more of you. I encourage you to take advantage of your local dues by attending a monthly program, joining a special interest group (we have groups for junior, senior and independent practitioners) or signing up for our new mentor program. And stay tuned for information about our annual Diversity Days program, our fall APR study series and our 2009 public service project.
I know there are many constraints on your time and budgets these days. Your PRSA Richmond board of directors is always looking for new ways to engage and involve our members so please let us know how we can continue making PRSA Richmond valuable to you. Thank you for your continuing support of and commitment to our chapter.
Alissa Poole, APR
President, PRSA Richmond
