We’ve been doing our annual Agency Week in some form for almost the entirety of our 43-year history. You don’t do something for nearly four decades if it’s not important or effective. And nothing matters to us more than inspiring our global teams, connecting together as colleagues, giving back to our communities through service opportunities and learning new things. We could tell you how amazing this past week was, but we’d rather let the video do the talking.

Last night’s recognition by PRWeek US, naming Edelman as the Agency Dynasty of the Past 25 Years, is a reflection of our collective effort and vision. I am grateful to my colleagues who work tirelessly to deliver on the founder’s promise, “It is great to be the largest firm. But we must always strive to be the best firm.” Read my reflections on this journey in my latest blog: https://edl.mn/3vd9Mr9

My favorite class at S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University was Advertising 208 (The Big Idea in Advertising). I still have the textbooks on our bookshelf (10 moves later). The curriculum was all about how challenger brands were catapulted by the Madison Mavericks – Ogilvy, Grey, Wells, Thompson, Doyle. My dream job was to work Ogilvy; I have interviewed there more than 12 times during my career... instead I became a journalist and the went to work Grey Group. Ogilvy was “my agency partner” when I was at American Express. Smart people. Remarkable work. Solid Moral Compass. This week, my dream came true. I am a Global Client Leader for WPP Ogilvy on Verizon. To dream makers Devika Bulchandani Philip Heimann Charlotte Smith Kristin McHugh Denis Budniewski Joyce King Thomas... your magic is real. To conspirators in MarCom Marissa Solis Cesar Conde Esperanza Teasdale Lisa Sepulveda Alison Bain Laura Molen Tonia O'Connor Gilbert Dávila Bob Liodice Cheryl Brody Franklin Sandra Lopez Joseph Bihlmier alejandro ceppi Jack Myers the journey is much better as a traveler than a tourist. To my broad partners HACE and MediaVillage.org, thank you for all you have done and will do for our mission. To all the #hispanics #firstgeneration #sinpena #seeall #latinarising… As a first generation everything, life is a worthwhile marathon. #diversityisabusinessimpertive #advertisingandmarketing #hiringnow

Use AI as a Human ‘Co’ Not a Replacement: Jessica Tompkinson shared valuable insights on how Unilever uses AI in their communications as a supportive tool, rather than a replacement. 🤖🤝 3.

Global Executive Communications Leader | Senior Director & EMEA Tech Executive Positioning Lead at Edelman
There's one week to go until the final deadline of this year's PRWeek UK 30 Under 30 Awards! So if you haven't submitted an entry yet - for you or one of your teammates, now's your chance. My tip for entrants: think about how you (or your teammate if you're nominating a colleague) have gone above and beyond in your career, delivering on SMART goals and have made a real positive impact in our industry. So be 'Specific', 'Measurable', show how the impact you've made was 'Achieved', tell us why it's 'Relevant' and how it was 'Time-Bound' (when it happened). And above all, let your personal passion come through - show us what makes you, you! Looking forward to reading the entries soon...

Honoured to receive the PRWeek UK 30 under 30 Newcomers Award. Massive thank you to Chris Grummett for nominating me and to PRWeek UK for recognising my accomplishments. I’ve had the chance to work with v special people who give me advice, challenge and encourage me in equal measure. Thanks to them, I know what liking a job can feel like. And that's a real privilege. Through my work at the CBI (Confederation of British Industry), I’ve helped effect Government policy change to benefit working parents, advised CEOs + DGs and built meaningful relationships along the way. But I’m not oblivious to the pitfalls of working in high-pressure situations. No matter what your job is, high stress can have a detrimental impact on how you feel about your career, how you feel about yourself. And job unhappiness seems to crop up everywhere you look. The antidote? Starts with unlocking the powerful combo of finding a sense of purpose in your work, and properly looking after your wellbeing. The latter we’ll hear a lot about this #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, but it’s something that matters every day. Both elements are important to feeling fulfilled at work and beyond. Employers can play a big part in helping people hack that. Always keen to talk PR, policy, health and happiness at work – DMs open.

This way for Better PR It’s B Corp Month, and here at PRN we're taking a moment to look back on how far we've come in our journey towards becoming a better and more sustainable business. Getting our B Corp certification wasn't just about getting a badge. It was about showing the world that we're serious about being the best PR agency we can be, not just in terms of our work, but also in terms of our values and our impact on the world. Our partnership with Furthr | B Corp™ has been a total game-changer. They've helped us put sustainable practices in place and get involved in projects that make a real difference. This journey to do good and be better has taken a lot of time and effort across the team, but it's also been really rewarding. We've learned so much - from the many ways our business can impact the economic and social well-being of the communities in which we operate, to how to both measure and understand our own environmental impact. We’ve made a lot of progress, and we're not stopping there. By the end of 2024, we're aiming to hit a B Impact Score of 100. That's a pretty ambitious goal, especially with B Corp updating its standards and tools for measuring impact this year, but we're up for the challenge. So let's celebrate B Corp Month together. Let's take some time to reflect on our impact, learn from each other, and set some bold goals for the future. Together, we can make a real difference in the world. Henry Bishop B Lab UK #BCorpMonth #Sustainability #PositiveImpact #Furthr

As I usually do I like to share personal stories and how those experiences have impacted me throughout my career. I believe Presence and Engagement within the given industry we are connected to provides great power and influence to how we develop our skills and gain knowledge and just as important (maybe more importantly) - how we contribute of our expertise, insights and perspectives and from those we gain value which is leveraged to benefit our own business, and relationships. The barrier to engagement...most often it's time, second is a monetary consideration. But when one considers engagement as an investment in themselves and their business suddenly perspectives are reconsidered on what they will gain from those experiences. But it takes commitment and effort...there is no magic trick to share. To be a champion, you have to be in the game otherwise the sideline is as far as one can go. https://lnkd.in/g_hdZZ_M
