I found the discussion on client conflicts quite interesting. I experienced that years ago working at Carlson Marketing while working on the RBC Visa Gold bid, the discussion around the office over the conflict with TD Financial’s Gold card travel incentive was solved with the Chinese wall.

I liked what Martin said, when in doubt call your client and get a gut check from their end regarding a potential conflict.

All the best for the new year.

So sorry to hear that Julie is leaving, though I can understand the need to free up time for billable hours and runnig a business.

I hope you will find another female colleague to include on the show, because the many women in PR seem strangely under-represented on PR podcasts.
