What’s disrupting PR today — and who’s ready to face it? The 2025 Global Communication Report from @USC Annenberg Center for Public Relations, in partnership with @Zeno Group and @IABC, surveyed 1,077 PR professionals across generations. We explored how AI, hybrid work, media evolution, and polarization are transforming communications. The findings? Huge generational gaps — but also an opportunity for cross-generational collaboration. ?? 74% feel positive about PR’s future, but Gen Z and Boomers don’t always agree on how to get there. Dig into the trends, the talent shifts, and the future-ready strategies here: https://hubs.li/Q03dVS2s0 #PRFuture #AIinPR #HybridWork #MediaTrends #GenZ #ZenoGroup #IABC #USCAnnenberg

Coming this Wednesday at 6 p.m. Central time ... Webinar: Learn About Personal Brand, Certification from Global Expert Register today! Join our friends at IABC Dallas Chapter for a special virtual session with Sia Papageorgiou FRSA, FCSCE, SCMP, co-founder at the Centre for Strategic Communication Excellence in Melbourne, Australia, to explore how developing your personal brand, including certification, can elevate your career and strengthen your strategic impact. As communication professionals, we are often behind the scenes, focused on building the brands of our organizations, CEOs and others. Yet having a personal brand, being clear about what we as communication professionals stand for, the difference we make and the value we create is a great asset for ourselves, our employers and those we seek to attract to our organizations and our causes. It’s about who knows what you know (and how that adds value). And certification is a key part of this equation. Tickets are $10 for Other IABC Chapter Members and Non-IABC Members (when registering, select Continue As Guest). Register here: https://lnkd.in/gSy3Jykw. IABC Dallas Chapter will send the webinar link a day or two before the event.? #IABCTulsa #IABCDallas #brand #webinars #professionaldevelopment
