What happens when a PR group has a potential PR crisis? Read this PRSA Tactics article called Zika, Puerto Rico and a Test in Issues Management penned by my friend and fellow Counselors Academy board member, Martin Waxman, to learn how a group of pros made the go or no go decision.

As a member of PRSA‘s Counselors Academy executive committee, I’ve been collaborating with Tactics editor John Elsasser for several months as a liaison of sorts to secure contributors for the publication’s monthly column called “Changing Times.” The column was started by Michael Herman, APR, Fellow PRSA, friend and mentor to many. There was no one better than Mike to write about changes in the public relations industry, but his only published column appeared in January 2015, the same month he unexpectedly left this world. Since then, members of PRSA’s Counselors Academy have been contributing their thoughts on the evolution of our profession.
