Since, 2003, to be exact. So, I thought it was worth commemorating since the MN PR Blog has been an instrumental part of the local PR community for 15+ years.

Isabelle McLemore – Senior Director, Global Corporate Communications, UFC. Coming out of college I came across an opportunity as a communications intern at Tennis Canada. That’s probably our biggest thing in certainly public relations, and corporate communications as well. Using local resources is huge.

Having a plan in place includes things like a chain of command and a communications tree of messaging both internally and externally and someone who is familiar with it within the organization. Internally, people will look to the PR people to gauge the true level of a particular situation.
