Something that has been on my mind this week
#fridaythoughts
#thursdaythoughts
The next training session is on 16 April and will be looking at the duty of candour, ethical communication and ensuring organisations are ready for scrutiny.
Message for more information.
I am overwhelmed that the Operating Ethically in PR and Comms free session that I am running in April is sold out. If anyone is interested in a future session I am thinking of running something in early Autumn. Let me know if that would be of interest.
If you have a few minutes this weekend you may be interested in my latest crisis communication focused newsletter looking at finding a way through difficult times.

At the start of January my newsletter looked at managing and being prepared for possible conflict and what it means for communicators. It feels even more relevant this week so I thought I would share it again

More than half of the tickets have gone for the Free session on 9 April looking at operating ethically in PR and comms. Every morning I wake up and see the headlines and realise we need to be having these discussions more openly and more frequently.

If you have 10 mins check out my latest crisis comms newsletter. When we have institutions that are building frustration into their approaches, situations where money trumps democracy, and where PR is trying to paper the cracks will trust ever increase?

I have looked again. I think you mean the number on the side which is the actual number and the chart is the percentage. There are some other charts in the report that specify they are women only responses.
Another of the results from the survey about women in crisis management and resilience. Just take that in...and read more here www.canva.com/design/DAG96...

Some is where the men and women respondents have been split.
It has been an interesting week. Great work media training alongside some wonderful people. Some work wins and some interesting projects on the horizon.
Of course, I love what I do and it is really important to me but something feels off. Find out what

Just take a look at this. In my experience women have faced more scrutiny when they are in either positions of authority or responsible for difficult decisions.
This is just one of the frankly shocking findings from the survey I carried out. See the full results here www.canva.com/design/DAG96...
Wish I had one of those....😜
