Diversity: Which Pet are You?
A community is as diverse as this photo, correct? From Merriam-Webster: Pronunciation: \də-ˈvər-sə-tē, dī-\ Function: noun Inflected Form(s): plural di�ver�si�ties Date: 14th century 1 : the condition of being diverse: variety; especially: the inclusion of diverse people (as people of different races or cultures) in a group or organization programs intended to promote diversity in schools. 2 : an instance of being diverse - a diversity of opinion. Having note of this definition, which animal best represents you? I
am the parrot as I want to "squawk" in this post about what I think is
becoming a lost art in today's techno world with serious public
relations implications. Yes, we have smart phones, radar guns, ATM machines, police scanners,
electronic billboards and applications that allow one to program a TV
from an iphone (yes, I have done that!) - all assisting with quick communications! But, as great as these devices are (Comment if you think otherwise) to our community, what is the long-standing impact on business community relations? For more...

Final Puzzle Piece: Public Relations Unfortunately, there is a tendency to "plug and play"
"Life: The Great Challenge" by Royce B. McClure is the world's largest commercially made jigsaw puzzle.
There are 24,000 pieces. Once assembled this impressive, detailed work
of art of measures more than 14 feet long and 5ft. wide. The only way
that you can see and appreciate this creative picture is by looking at
the entire puzzle.
The results are much the same for public relations strategies. When
public relations programs are dissected into separate components, like
pieces of a puzzle, the return on investment is extremely limited.
Like a puzzle, a systematic and integrated approach to communication
that builds to a goal is much more effective, and in the long term, the
right approach.
The separate pieces of a puzzle in public relations are easily found
without airbrushed acrylics that make up puzzles. PR puzzle pieces
include: social media tools, community outreach programs, media
relations activities, special events, video production, crisis
communication strategies. A good list to reference can be found here.
Unfortunately, there is a tendency to "plug and play" certain
communication practices without an overarching, interlocking strategic
public relations plan - the foundation that success is built on.

TIP OF THE MONTH
Warm Up to Public Relations
In sports, if one is smart, warming up is the right course of
action. A lot of stretching, strides, jumping up and down. Adding push ups and sit ups keeps the routine fresh. All this physical activity
with the goal of reducing injury during aerobic activity. Makes sense,
right? Warming up is also critical when beginning public relations
activities. One should start small and work up to a level where the
unity of effort really brings a return on investment. Here are several quick PR warm up activities - 3,2, and 1 - to get you into winning shape: 3. Seek out a "trainer" or public relations expert:
You don't have time to learn all the drills so have someone guide you;
take you to that new level. A professional counselor will be able to
access your current public relations "health" and help build a schedule
that meets your goals. Your "trainer" will also be able to introduce a
variety of successful activities to keep drills both effective and not
boring.
2. Establish a warm up routine: Most exercise experts will advise a - 30 minute three or four day a week minimum
- routine to enhance performance. In public relations your initial
warm up activity begins with asking yourself, honestly: "What's my goal
and why do I need public relations strategies to help me achieve it?" If you can't answer this question, then you will have difficultly
climbing up that hill of success no matter what the frequency or types
of public relation activities. 1. Chart performance: Serious sport teams and athletes place a lot of emphasis on... For more... |
