Incredibly Helpful Insight into PR

I thought this book was excellent on story telling and providing direct / actionable advice on approaches to PR. I loved the way the author used her recent experience to highlight how to handle different situations and then the summaries connected to e dots if you didn’t already do so at the end. I’m not a PR professional but I do feel better equipped if I enter into a situation that needs careful handling and good communication after listening to this book.

PR Pro Tips from Major Infrastructure Rebuild

Pro pro author narrates her lived experience as head of communications at major hydro infrastructure dam rebuild. Timely, actionable tips, concisely and generously shared. Told from the heart as well as the front lines. I couldn't "put it down."
