  1. Terry and Martin – Thanks for sharing the blog post – “The Worst Thing About PR” and ideas we can all implement to better demonstrate PR’s value to the rest of our organizations.

    The idea behind that post came from the fact that we often complain about how others either don’t understand PR’s role and value or they strongly undervalue it. My point was that people often arrive at a perception based on their experiences.

    So, instead of just pointing fingers, we should all recognize there are ways we can improve how we show and share PR’s value, identify ways we individually can do a better job starting today and then go do it.

    Thanks again!

  2. If you have been able to identify some trends or problems in the industry, ask how that is going to affect the company and what they are doing to deal with it. Show your concern about industry developments and what that may bode for the future.

    If some current challenges have been brought up earlier in the interview, ask for clarification and more detail.
