A Letter From the President | January 2024

From the President’s Desk

Dear PRSA Orlando,

“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” Mahatma Gandhi’s words have long inspired me, and as we step into 2024, they feel more relevant than ever. This year, our theme is “Elevate.” We’re not just talking about lifting our PR game; we’re talking about personal and professional growth that changes the way we think and act.

With Citrus Club under renovation, we’re exploring new places and ways to connect. We’re kicking things off on Jan. 18 with a breakfast program at Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida titled, “Navigating Change: Strategic Communications in a Shifting Social Landscape.”Come and join the conversation with Eddie Fernández, Adrianna Sekula, and Richard Parker Antoine, led by Wendy J. Roundtree, APR.

Our programs team has been working hard to finalize our February program, “Navigating a Minefield – a PR Peek Into the Greenberg Scandal.” Alan Byrd from Alan Byrd & Associates will be sharing his insights, so stay tuned for that registration link soon.

Finally, mark your calendars for March 6. We’ve got an exciting collaboration with FPRA Orlando for the PR Paid Forward event. It’s a great way to collaborate for a good cause.

This year is all about embracing change and making the most of new opportunities. Your thoughts and participation are what make our chapter special, so I can’t wait to see you soon!

Looking forward to an amazing year ahead! 
 
Your friend,
Kimberly Devitt Brown, APR
