End of the road for motor industry PR - or time to step up a gear? That's the proposition addressed by speakers at the 2009 MIPAA Business Academy PR Masterclass at the London Transport Museum.
|
Feedback from the Masterclass has been fantastic - with most attendees rating it 5 out of 5 for meeting expectations and value for money (averages: 4.5 + 4.8) and everyone saying they would recommend future workshops.
Special praise for the day came for Paul Willis, Director, Centre for Public Relations Studies, Leeds Business School, whose academic perspective highlighted the challenges and opportunities facing PR today.
