You’re starting a new job in public relations. How can you make the best first impression?

Ich teile diese Ansicht. Man muss das Unternehmen kennen, um es kompetent nach au?en zu repr?sentieren. Eventuell erm?glicht der Arbeitgeber ein Onboarding, welches es erm?glicht, für einige Wochen in allen Abteilungen t?tig zu werden, um das Unternehmen nicht nur vom Papier, sondern auch aus der Praxis her kennenzulernen.

By scheduling virtual or offline coffee chats with people within the organisation. The secret is to not limit yourself only to people within your team, but rather to put in the time to get to know your weaker links (i.e. people in other teams or departments).

Don’t forget to ask questions and be yourself. When you’re new, you get a hall pass for asking many questions about your colleagues, the work, the process, and the acronyms. But, you only have the ‘new card’ for so long so make sure you use it early on and get to know people.

Spend time actually shadowing the work of the people in departments or functions across your organization. That way, you can represent your organization in an authentic way that shows your outside “audience” (customers, media, investors): “When you’re talking with me, you’re talking with the organization.”

Menschen, die in der ?ffentlichkeitsarbeit t?tig sind, sollten neben soliden kommunikativen Kompetenzen auch emotionale Intelligenz mitbringen. Es hilft sehr, Erwartungen zu antizipieren und entsprechend reagieren zu k?nnen. Angemessene Sprache, Selbstbewusstsein und Humor sind Erfolgsfaktoren.

Be yourself .... Be very presentable.. Be a Team player but don't over do it... Create a positive atmosphere Continue to learn the company culture, norms

Active listening is a great skill to learn and practice early in your career. It will benefit you professionally and personally throughout your life, helping you build trust and understand other people's perspectives and ideas.

Listening effectively and making eye contact and being present, can bring about a myriad of benefits, crucial for both personal and organizational success. Builds stronger relationships: Listening helps in understanding stakeholders' perspectives, leading to more meaningful and trusting relationships.:By actively listening to public sentiment and feedback, you can better manage and protect the organization's reputation. Asking Questions Facilitates crisis resolution. Listening to all sides during a crisis allows for a more informed and effective response strategy. Improves message targeting: Understanding your audience through listening & asking meaningful thoughtful, provoking questions usually results in authentic compelling storytelling.

Richtig! Neben der Proaktivit?t sollte aber auch Innovationsfreude vorhanden sein. Also auch mal den Blick aus dem Unternehmen wagen: Was sind Zukunftstrends? Wo ist PR in 10 Jahren? Was braucht es noch, um ?ffentlichkeitsarbeit im Sinne meines Unternehmens gut weiterzuentwickeln?

Mir ist es in meinen ersten Jobs schwer gefallen, mich angemessen selbst zu feiern :) Eine tolle Ver?ffentlichung? Ja, das ist mein Job, dachte ich. Heute sehe ich es anders: Highlights kommuniziere ich sofort, alles andere in einer regelm??igen Auswertung. Hilft am Ende auch mir selbst, motiviert und an der Stange zu bleiben.

Be sure to have an updated LinkedIn profile! Especially if you will have any responsibility for the organization's social media presence. If you can't keep your own profile current and demonstrate professional engagement how should I be convinced you will manage the business pages proficiently?

Procura tener la máxima y mejor información sobre la tarea, o cliente, que se te asigne. Pero muéstrate natural y sencillo. No te muestres prepotente ni superior a los demás, pero tampoco te sientas inferior. Es decir, sé asertivo. Esfuérzate por expresar en voz alta tus ideas de una forma ordenada y clara, creyendo firmemente en lo que dices, con lo que transmitirás seguridad, adaptándote bien al nivel de las personas a las que hables, sabiendo escuchar de forma activa, mirando siempre a los ojos con una mirada firme y directa, pero, a la vez, amable, sintiendo afecto por la persona o personas que te escuchan o a las que tú escuches.
