VIDEO. It is amazing how many small and medium sized businesses don't pitch or promote themself on social media, or even to the media. They just don't know how. Or have the experience and smarts in doing so. They say 'Oh, we are just too busy'. 'But we could do with the exposure'. What? You would like the exposure? Yes, of course. And if you can do it for them, they go for it. You know how to do Accounting, Marketing, Communications, Research, Negotiating, Strategy. And even PR. You you like to find out how other people do it too. You learn from other people too. And you can always get even better yourself.

August marks 6 months into my In-service training and I have learnt quite a lot about Public Relations by practically being exposed to it. In my first year, I struggled to understand what PR is or what it's about but all I knew is that I love being where the people are, so I stuck to it and today I am very glad I did. I have grown to enjoy it and how it is teaching me to be creative and to get over my social anxiety. The lessons I have learnt outside of the lecture halls have contributed to the confidence I have in myself and what better way to learn than to make mistakes? I cannot wait to see what the future holds! #pr #communication #careeradvancement

In PR, authenticity and credibility are key.

Remember, the best way to inspire others is to lead by example. Let's commit to a journey of lifelong learning and self-improvement, and watch how it transforms our professional lives and the impact we can make in the industry. #PublicRelations #SelfGrowth #ProfessionalDevelopment #LifelongLearning #PersonalBranding #PRIndustry

The only corporate comms training you need.

A lot of people want to become an expert, or desire to be recognised as one at the very least. But what does it take to become an expert in the diverse field of Communications and Public Relations? Someone asked a question recently on whether there’s a cheat sheet to becoming an expert in Comms/ PR. The question make me chuckle but it also made me realise that people don’t really understand that expertise takes time. You do have to go through your process and master the core competencies required in the Comms function. You can get my full answer to this question here - https://lnkd.in/eSKY6nPN #Communications

If you are passionate about social change, let me tell you why communication is key in your line of work.?? In development work whether it's about improving education, healthcare, or empowering communities, communication is everything. It’s not just about sending messages, but about building trust, understanding, and getting everyone on the same page. Effective communication is the bridge between great ideas and real results. Imagine a development project where people don’t fully understand or support the changes being introduced. Without clear communication, even the best ideas will remain just that—ideas. I’ve seen this firsthand in community projects. In one project, we needed local farmers to use new farming techniques to help improve climate conditions. It wasn’t just about explaining the methods—it was about talking to them, listening to their concerns, and building trust. When communication was a two-way conversation, the change happened more smoothly. I am a Media, Public Relations and Development Communication professional. Let’s connect.
