A huge thank you to Chartered Institute of Public Relations president elect, Advita Patel for attending our AGM. Read her ambitions for the coming year 👇🏽
I’ve recently attended a few Chartered Institute of Public Relations AGMs to share my ambitions for my presidency year. I have three key objectives 👇🏽 ▪️Friction-free learning. Access to more affordable learning and flexible training. We’ve already started adding cost-effective micro-learning modules to the on-demand platform - and more will be coming soon. ▪️Enhancing the benefits of Chartership. I know there are several debates about whether PR is a profession or an industry. Ultimately, I care about ensuring we have a voice of influence where it matters. Chartership is an excellent opportunity to help establish our place in the business world. ▪️Cultivating a culture of inclusion so every member thrives, regardless of demographics or background. We have made significant strides at CIPR, but the serious work has started. We have the opportunity to lead by example and provide support to our members so they can deliver their best work. We want every member to have a great experience and trust that, as a member, they will have access to some of the best training, various communities, and invaluable opportunities the profession has to offer. If you have any questions or are unsure whether you should join us, send me a direct message, and I’ll get back to you. Finally, a huge thank you to all the volunteers who work tirelessly to host events like the AGM on their own time. Your hardwork is appreciated.
