PUBLIC RELATIONS MANAGERS
- are usually the head of a PR firm or of a company’s PR department. They
are charged with all the different aspects of creating and maintaining the
public image of their customer. They coordinate and organize all the teams
and professionals working towards the promotion of the image their
customer wants the public to perceive of them.
- Public relations managers are tasked with fielding media questions and
pitching stories to the media, preparing media kits and organizing press
conferences. In addition to writing press releases, they write speeches for
organizational leaders, develop advertising and marketing communications
material and prepare articles for corporate newsletters. Public relations
managers also release information to counter negative publicity and handle
crisis and emergency communications.
1. Honesty
PR, frequently misrepresented as “spin,” is about putting the best light on a situation
and portraying issues, companies, and organizations, in a positive way. That
doesn’t mean lying. A good PR person never lies, and in fact, helps a client tell the
truth even when it’s not so pleasant.
2. Audience Minded
PR pros have to know the customer base in order to determine the best types of
stories to tell. Even so, not every tale will do. Having a nose for news and what
consumers want to hear will help drive client coverage.
Even when pitching journalists, keeping the audience in mind is key. The news
hook should be clearly stated. If the journalist can’t determine what your news is,
how can you expect her to want to cover it? Your pitch should also be
conversational. Don't use jargon, it will prevent you from connecting with the
journalist your targeting and the audience you hope to reach.
3. Great Storyteller
This is one tenant of PR that will always ring true. Fantastic stories draw people in
and stick with them long after they’ve moved on to something else. It is great to
have a tale to tell, but a great storyteller can make almost any narrative seem
interesting.
4. Persuasive Prowess
PR experts have to be able to do more than find interesting tales and tell them well,
they have to be able to sell the narrative. The best PR pros can define a story, write
it and present it in such a way that news agencies and other communications
organizations pick it up and distribute it to a wider audience.
5. Clarity
A good PR person is an excellent writer and speaker who knows how to get ideas
across in a variety of media. Clear writing is clear thinking. A great public
relations representative also keeps these clearly voiced ideas in mind when
interviewed. The ability to reframe an answer with the key message in mind is
prized by politicians. It also serves PR clients well.
6. Punctuality Matter
The media world is driven by deadlines, deadlines, deadlines! Being late can mean
the difference between flying through the window of opportunity and crashing into
the glass. Once PR pros agree to a deadline, they must move heaven and earth to
meet it.
7. Willing to Learn
PR pros who don’t make it a point to learn how the public relations world is
advancing can expect to find their phone ringing less and less often. Today’s best
PR people not only grasp the importance of social media strategies and mobile web,
they are always looking towards the horizon to see the newest ways of reaching
their audiences.
8. Detail Oriented
In this field, accuracy means everything. Good PR pros have developed methods to
ensure their stories portray a positive image, while also containing accurate
information. Don’t spread fake news by pitching a half-baked story! Make sure your
own sources are reliable before you pitch journalists.
9. Adventurous Attitude
PR pros are confident. They don’t just seek out the same handful of media outlets,
they also think outside the box. They take calculated risks in order to launch the
organizations they represent into greatness. Consider other opportunities beyond
traditional sources.
Podcasts, blogs, social media influencers and YouTubers are all new areas worth
exploring for new PR opportunities.
RIGHT ATTITUDE
Positive Attitude-It means that keeping a positive mindset and thinking
about the greater good, no matter whatever the circumstances are. A positive
attitude has many benefits which affect out other kinds of behavior in a good
way.
Confidence-Confidence is good attitude and one of the basic things in the
list of positive attitudes. Generally, people with a plus or positive mindset
are rewarded with this automatically. Confidence is necessary to approach
life with zest. Looking at things confidently and saying “I’m up for this’, is
enough to reflect your attitude towards life in general and attitude in
particular. Confidence in other elements in the world will start with being
confident with self.
Happiness-Happiness is the next type of attitude in the list of positive
attitudes and behaviors. A happy mind is an abode for all the good things to
self. Confident people are quite happy as they are not worried about results,
interviews, etc. and other similar things in life that are meant to test us. Look
within yourself; you will find happiness.
Sincerity-An individual with a positive mindset is often found to be quite
sincere. He or she is aware of the work to be done, and they know that the
only way out of a situation is through it. Sincerity is one trait that you should
never let go off or compromise.
Determination-A determination is one of the primary rewarding points for a
person with a positive attitude. A right dose of hard work, effort and
determination are essential to get things the way you want. A person who is
driven and properly determined will overcome all impossibilities.
SKILLS COMPETENCIES
1. Adept in Technology - Having the technological skills necessary to perform
data entry, manage team calendars, and create company reports are highly sought
after admin skills in assistants. It’s important to be familiar with Microsoft Office
software like Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, and more. It’s also not
uncommon for admin assistants to help input data into a customer relationship
management (CRM) system, customer service platform, or virtual help desk. This
means you need to have a thorough understanding of computer software, browsers,
and operating systems in order to perform the job.
3. Organization - Not only are strong organization skills needed to keep yourself
organized as an administrative assistant, they are also needed so you can keep the
whole office organized as well. This includes organizing team schedules, events,
and files with a system that makes sense for everyone. This ensures that your
fellow team members in the organization can easily follow your filing systems
without misplacing items. Find a job near you today.
4. Time Management - Because admin assistants are a resource for the whole
company, it can feel like your time is stretched across several departments. To
make sure your time is properly allocated and planned, it’s crucial that you have
good time management. Otherwise, you will potentially stretch yourself too thin.
To be the best resource for your team, you need to accurately plan your tasks and
the time they will take.
1. Industry knowledge
Knowing the three T's of the industry — terminology, trends and technology —
and being able to articulate them on your administrative resume means that even as
a new hire, you will begin to contribute immediately. A savvy admin professional
is not only familiar with these concepts, but also knows how to use them to full
advantage on the job.
Training — Employers prefer administrative professionals who are not only tech-
savvy but also well-versed in the company's most-used tools. They look for
individuals who proactively update their administrative assistant skills through
training.
4. Budget perceptiveness
Companies are always on the lookout for an administrative assistant who can find
ways to save money and help the business become more efficient. You're on the
front lines every day — overseeing day-to-day operations, selecting vendors and
negotiating contracts — putting you in the perfect position to look for
opportunities to cut office expenses. Proposing cost-cutting solutions to those
within the company is a good way to make yourself indispensable to the
organization.
