Comments on: Entertaining the “R” word. Will you embrace, spin or hide from that elephant in the room? http://www.prconversations.com/index.php/2008/02/entertaining-the-r-word-will-you-embrace-spin-or-hide-from-that-elephant-in-the-room/ Global discussion of public relations from local perspectives Wed, 16 May 2012 11:46:43 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Jennifer Boyes http://www.prconversations.com/index.php/2008/02/entertaining-the-r-word-will-you-embrace-spin-or-hide-from-that-elephant-in-the-room/comment-page-1/#comment-969 Jennifer Boyes Wed, 05 Mar 2008 09:33:56 +0000 http://www.prconversations.com/?p=394#comment-969 Thanks for including a link to my post! There are a number of Kiwis who refuse to acknowledge the possibility of recession reaching our shores and have adopted an 'it won't happen to us' attitude. Whether an American recession would have a huge impact on NZ or not is yet to be seen but it certainly can't hurt for companies to be prepared. I also fully believe that, should recession hit, PR people are best placed to help these companies make the best of the situation. Anyway- enough blabbing from me! I love your blog, keep up the good work. Thanks for including a link to my post!

I'm in excellent company among those links, and this blog, all are fascinating reads. I know some PR practitioners are loathe to talk about finance or crunch numbers, but if we hope to have any long-term plans, or if we hope to be taken seriously by the execs, we've got to have a decent understanding of finance and economics. Looking forward to the webcast tomorrow! Thanks for linking to my post! I’m in excellent company among those links, and this blog, all are fascinating reads.
