#PRStudChat Discusses The State of Digital Corporate Reputation
PR in the 21st century requires an intense focus on reputation management and brand health. Businesses face greater reputation risk as social media and mobile technologies increase the speed of communication and a dynamic public actively shares what they see and how they feel, 24/7.

About #PRStudChat
It began with a simple question asked by Angela Hernandez, then President of PRSSA at Central Michigan University (CMU). “Is PR Right for me?” A follow-up blog post by Communication Strategist Deirdre Breakenridge inspired a series of direct messages on Twitter between Breakenridge and fellow PR industry pro, Valerie Simon. This was an important question and one that should be explored beyond one student or one blog post. Why not build a community to help students across the country, and even the globe, learn from the experience and perspective of industry professionals … A community where everyone can learn and grow together.
