Join us for PRINZ Southern’s new ‘Learn from a Fellow’ series – featuring two of the industry’s experts! PRINZ Fellows demonstrate a high degree of competence in the practice of public relations and are nominated based on their significant contribution to the enhancement of the public relations profession. This session will focus on crisis communications and managing issues to prevent a crisis. Hear from Felicity Price (LPRINZ) about her work on the Christchurch Arts Centre’s ‘save the Arts Centre’ campaign and from Michele Hider (FPRINZ) on supporting the veterinary sector during last year’s Cyclone Gabrielle and Auckland flooding events.

Aotearoa isn’t immune to the diminishing social cohesion that’s happening across the globe. As public trust in governments, corporations and media reduces, how do we hone and develop our communication practice to navigate ourselves and our organisations through this changing landscape?

This webinar considers the role of empathy in unlocking shared understandings and increasing the tolerance of differences, so that communication can happen.
