DeepSeek shocked the financial markets and wiped billions off the share prices of US tech giants in late January as it became the most downloaded free app in the US in just a week.However, concerns remain about the distribution of mis- and disinformation via DeepSeek, and about censorship. Cybersecurity firm Wiz has also said a security breach had exposed one million users of the technology.Lanuti discusses the advantages and disadvantages of DeepSeek and expresses misgivings about how it could be used to spread false information.More generally, she discusses OPRG's AI strategy and whether the PR industry in general is doing enough to keep up to speed with the fast-moving technology.Lanuti also gives her predictions for AI for the year ahead - with one quirky prediction provided by her AI agent.

We absolutely loved that take from Sandy Skees, Purpose and Impact Global Lead at Porter Novelli. We've wanted to talk to Sandy for some time since we came across their research on the ‘Intention – Action Gap - the ‘Rise of the Conscious Consumer', when writing ‘Can Marketing Save the Planet - 101 Ways to use Sustainable Marketing as a Force for Good'. This particular piece of research looks at people's willingness to adopt changes to their behaviours, and not just by purchasing ‘green' products. Sandy shares example after example of the significant shifts that are happening with consumer appetite and behaviour - shifts which are some of the biggest indicators yet that things are starting to change, and quickly. Tune in and listen as Sandy shares many fascinating insights from the data and research and, her vast knowledge and decades of experience in this space. You'll learn: What the pressure points are in driving new mindsets. What Marketers need to do and why a focus on culture change is critical. Why one of the most important roles of business is to change societal behaviours and how communication is the most powerful way of doing this. Why communication has to be intentional. What is holding brands back. What some of the biggest challenges facing marketers are. For more information about Sandy Skees - you can visit her site.

Elle est pionnière sur l'un des axes marketing les plus méconnus en France. Et qui va pourtant bouleverser notre industrie dans les prochaines années. Le marketing d'autorité , ou marketing Authority en anglais, est une arme massive de croissance. Et pour le décrypter, je ne pouvais m'adresser qu'à Florence Grégeois. Après avoir passé 20ans à faire de la gestion de réputation et des relations publiques au sein des plus grands cabinets (FleishmanHillard et Porter Novelli entre autre), elle s'est lancée à son compte pour accélérer la croissance des solopreneurs et des entreprises. Ses deux sujets phares : le growth marketing et le marketing d'autorité. Très connu aux Etats-Unis où les meilleurs entrepreneurs l'exploitent au quotidien, le marketing d'autorité est encore un sujet niche en France. Mais probablement pas pour longtemps. Et ceux et celles qui sauront l'exploiter en amont auront une longueur d'avance dans 5ans. A la frontière entre l'expertise et la célébrité, il vient créer une nouvelle équation dans nos sociétés, où notre autorité est notre meilleur allié. Associé au growth marketing, il est un tremplin redoutable. A condition de le maitriser. Et c'est exactement ce qu'on vous propose dans cet épisode avec la brillante Florence : Qu'est-ce que le marketing d'autorité ? Pourquoi sera-t-il un élément phare dans les prochaines années ? Quels sont les leviers pour travailler son autorité ? Quelle est l'importance du branding dans l'autorité ? Qu'est-ce que le growth marketing ? Comment le mettre en place de façon si on déteste la technique ? Pourquoi le mix entre marketing d'autorité et growth marketing est-il invincible ? Cet épisode est une masterclass sur le marketing d'autorité. Vous allez avoir très envie de vous différencier.

Welcome to the PRmoment Podcast.Today we're chatting with 3 Monkeys Zeno UK managing director Jo Patterson about the encouraging trend of female leaders occupying more of the big PR agency roles in the UK.When Jo and I talked about this in our pre-show chat it got us thinking and here is a non-exhaustive list of top female PR agency leaders in the UK:We've got Jo at 3 Monkeys Zeno, Jo-ann Robertson at Ketchum, Jo Carr at Hope&Glory, Nicola Todd at Ogilvy PR, Pippa Arlow at Smarts, Ruth Kieran at Cirkle, Ruth Allcurch at WE, Sian Morgan at Cow, Sharon Bange at Kindred, Rebecca Grant at BCW, Ali Maynard at Manifest, Cath Taylor at Taylor Herring, Angie Moxham at The Fourth Angel, Kate Stevens at Axicom, Georgina Blizzard and Nicky Regonzonni at The PR Network, Mandy Sharp at Tin Man and Emma Kane at SEC Newgate, Fenella Gray at Porter Novelli and Bibi Hilton at Creative Access.And to be clear there are loads more I could mention - but you get the point. There seem to be more female leaders in top agency positions than there have been in recent memory - perhaps than there has ever been before. And one of the things Jo and I will talk about on the show today is the potential reasons for that.For those of you that are not aware 3 Monkeys Zeno has a fee income of £9m in the UK and 80 employees. Zeno started out as Edelman's conflict shop but has grown into a global agency with a fee income of about $150 m. About 70% of Zeno's revenues are in the US.Jo became the UK MD of 3Monkeys Zeno in October 2020. Previously she was UK MD at Porter Novelli and a board director at Red.Zeno bought 3 Monkeys in 2016. I always think of Zeno as a fairly new agency but for any PR agency history buffs out there, it was founded in 1998.Before we start do check out our latest free-to-attend webinar “The State of Social 2023: Channel Disruption, Influencer Growth and The Great Data Integration Challenge.”Thanks as ever to the PRmoment Podcast sponsors The PRCA. Here is a summary of what Jo and I discussed:3 mins Jo talks about why we're seeing more women PR agency CEOs.“We're (women) still only tracking at about 40% for leadership roles.”7 mins Jo talks about the benefits of female leadership traits in a progressive working environment.“It's the people you surround yourself with… charismatic leaders who are prepared to stand up and shape their organisations…and having the freedom to do that.”10 mins We've probably seen a rise of misogyny in society. There seems to be an upward trend of obnoxious macho culture.13 mins How do we make sure that in PR we don't lose those gains that we've made?“Greater protection for the challenging life stages that people go through”“Enshrining policies into governance”“Openness and confidence go hand in hand”17 mins Jo talks about the role models that have helped her in her career - Lesley Brend at Red, Fenella Gray at Porter Novelli and Barby Siegel at Zeno.“I like working with good people regardless of gender”20 mins How is the Zeno business doing both globally and in the UK?“About 50% of our work now is global”21 mins In the UK 3 Monkeys was known for its consumer work, how has that evolved since the acquisition?23 mins You are the first leader of the business in London who wasn't part of the original 3 Monkeys team. Has that been an advantage or disadvantage for you do you think?25 mins When an agency like Zeno buys an agency li

PRWeek UK's Beyond the Noise podcast, which is published on alternate weeks, looks at some of the biggest issues affecting comms and PR. Download the podcast via Apple, Spotify or your favourite platform.Our soothsayers this week are Fenella Grey, EMEA managing director and chair at Porter Novelli, and Tanya Joseph, MD, specialist services, at Hill+Knowlton. They join regular host Frankie Oliver, the founder of agency New Society, and PRWeek UK editor John Harrington."I'm an optimist," said Grey. "My glass is always half fall. If the pandemic is anything to go by, then confidence and PR spend should remain high."Asked about recruitment challenges - and whether the 'great resignation' is over - Grey said: "I think it's more of a great reawakening - somebody else said it, but it's spot on. The talent market is going to remain incredibly aggressive."She foresees a "continued push away from classical linear career progression", and also predicted more recruitment from outside the comms industry.Joseph agreed that the great resignation is over, saying: "That dislocation people felt during COVID and post-COVID has dissipated. Their expectation of what a career looks like is completely different."She highlighted a key industry challenge: agency staff wanting higher pay rises when it's difficult to ask clients for higher fees."Our employees are looking for reward beyond the pay packet, really. What's the experience of being part of your workforce like?"The importance of internal comms will continue to increase this year, the guests predicted. Grey said around half of Porter Novelli's briefs have some element of employee engagement.Joseph said: "The cost-of-living crisis is real and affecting everyone in our sector and beyond. How do you use comms in really effective employee engagement to make people feel this is a really important place to be?"She stressed the importance of businesses engaging in public affairs at this time, with a general election likely to be 18 months away."The window is now open," Joseph said. "Both parties, Labour and Conservatives, are absolutely looking to businesses, to NGOs, to civic society, to help shape their policies."The duo also discussed the importance of retaining diverse talent in the sector - and Joseph emphasised the need to "make people comfortable with the idea of conflict".We also identify PRWeek's choice of Top and Flop of the past fortnight.

Living more sustainably is an aspiration for almost everyone. Myriad studies tell us consumers want to make choices that are better for people and planet. But there is a big gap between intention and action. In many cases, it comes down to “if I knew, I would” – consumers' lack of understanding of how certain acts – such as eating less red meat or washing your clothes in cold water instead of hot – actually help the planet. In this podcast, Porter Novelli's Sandy Skees and Lisa Unsworth share some eye-opening data from their agency's recent report, “The Gap Between Say + Do: The Sustainability Engagement Spectrum.” They drill deep into many specific behavior types and attitudes that, once identified, can inform PR efforts. And in doing all this, they give comms pros – both as brand representatives and as citizens of the planet – invaluable inspiration and education to close those gaps and help their organizations be true leaders in the space by inspiring and educating consumers as never before.
When we think about Public Relations, a lot of questions come to mind. As a craft beer business, should you care about public relations? And what the heck does "public relations" really mean? How can you get started with PR??? So many questions... In short, YES! You should absolutely care about PR. To help us understand why and to unpack this marketing concept for the craft beer industry, we're joined by Kevin York. Kevin is one of the few people who has done PR, social media, and content marketing at both the strategic and tactical levels. Prior to founding KYC (Kevin York Communications), he worked at Edelman Digital and Voce Communications, a Porter Novelli company, where he served as head of Porter Novelli's global digital technology practice. He also founded and managed The Couchletes, a national sports editorial site with seven regional writers. KYC is hosting a new conference all about marketing in the craft beverage industry called Beer Amplified. The idea is to bring marketing people from lots of different industries (not just beer) and have them share their insights to craft beer industry people. The conference takes place this March in Boston.

In this episode of AUHSD Future Talks, Superintendent Matsuda interviews Samueli Family Philanthropies President, Lindsey Spindle. During the talk, Ms. Spindle discusses her story and drivers, food insecurity, food deserts, her work in the "truth" campaign, food as medicine, the connection to AUHSD's Magnolia Agriscience Community Center/Biotechnology Pathway/iLab, and advice to students.With a career singularly motivated by achieving social impact, Ms. Spindle brings a depth and breadth of experience spanning philanthropy, business, not-for-profits, impact investing, entertainment, brand management, government relations, and communications.The common thread in Spindle's career is her dedication to shaping organizations and campaigns that improve people's lives, particularly women and children. She was the first-ever Chief Communications and Brand Officer of Share Our Strength, a national nonprofit focused on ending childhood hunger in America through its groundbreaking No Kid Hungry campaign. Under her leadership, The No Kid Hungry campaign won PR Week's prestigious Non-Profit Campaign of the Year in 2015, increased participation in federal meal programs by several million children year over year, and helped elevate childhood hunger to being a top 10 issue the public identified as “solvable.”Before focusing on domestic hunger eradication, Ms. Spindle spent nearly 20 years in health care communications, policy, and government relations working for some of the nation's most respected commercial and non-profit organizations. These include Georgetown University, Brookings, Avalere Health, and Porter Novelli. Throughout her career, Spindle has shaped major national campaigns such as the groundbreaking ‘truth' campaign that curbed youth smoking by 30% in one year; increased patient safety through reduced medical errors; and secured bipartisan Congressional funding for improving health care safety and quality.

She spent 14 years at Porter Novelli where she was a leader in their diversity and technology departments at different times. Her forte is found in uncovering and articulating why people should care about complex issues. Soon Mee is a proven leader and creative problem-solver, and she considers her favorite roles to be mentor, coach, and student. In this episode… Leadership is often synonymous with power in the corporate world. Control is often sought out but is rarely given to the people who deserve it the most. While performance is expected, leaders can and should do more for their workplace culture. It's a delicate balance of power and love that is conducive to bring lasting change. Soon Mee Kim has found power in her own voice, drawing from her lived experiences to help others find belonging in business. She works closely with the Omnicom Group to further diversity and inclusion for some of the world's leading brands. So how do you find that balance and transform your culture? Dov Pollack sits down with Soon Mee Kim, Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer of the Omnicom Group, to discuss diversity in the workplace. They go through Soon Mee's childhood and what she took from growing up in what she calls “Korean Wakanda.” They then touch on a host of topics such as the need for power and love, how to address diversity issues, and Soon Mee's guiding concept of the year. Hear it all on this episode of the Next Wave Leadership podcast.

For every brand in every sector, a commitment to purpose is reaching table-stakes level in terms of being a necessity for success. Of course, this manifests itself differently depending on the type of organization you are.The good news, though: Inspiration and education can be gleaned for all brands from any entity in any industry.That is proved in this podcast, featuring Harvey Mason, Jr., CEO of The Recording Academy, and Sean Smith, EVP and head of corporate counsel practice, Porter Novelli.The pair of leaders share some examples of how the Academy uses its powerful platform to advance DE&I and help broader society. They discuss how younger staffers at both organizations are leading the charge on purpose initiatives.

We welcome you to listen in.
Brad MacAfee founded Mission and Cause – the red-hot talent agency – in September 2020. With hiring freezes and layoffs the order of the day, Brad dove in anyway. And since then he's seen a “staggering evolution” in this dynamic job market: Many employers who used to cultivate culture and people are now focused on work, work, work over human connections. As a result, job seekers are in charge. In this episode: What “the war for talent” looks like today. Why 60% of creatives are considering leaving the agency for in-house.

One of the biggest challenges in the social impact space is putting metrics and measurements around purpose-focused initiatives and getting a handle on WHY consumers do the things that they do.Luckily for us, Porter Novelli's Senior Vice President, Marketing, Research & Insights Whitney Dailey is on the case! In this episode, Whitney and Megan chat about two absolutely fascinating studies that have recently been released by Whitney and her team.The first is about the prevalence of cancel culture (and what brands can do if they ARE cancelled). The second is a deep dive into consumer behavior and how emotional or "gut" reactions to brands can drive action and where purpose fits in that complex equation.These are two studies you're going to want to read if you haven't already so buckle your seatbelts for some social impact data goodness with Whitney Dailey.Links & NotesBusiness of Cancel Culture StudyPurpose Perception Study

About Our Guest Marian Salzman, SVP, Global Communications, Philip Morris International (PMI) Marian Salzman, senior vice president, global communications at Philip Morris International (PMI), has been named one of the world's top five trendspotters and is among the world's most-awarded public relations executives. In recent years, she has been listed in PRWeek's Global Power Book and as a PR News Top Woman in PR. She is also the recipient of the She Runs It 2017 Changing the Game Award, has been inducted into the PRWeek Hall of Femme and Connecticut Women's Hall of Fame, and was on the Holmes Report Top Innovators List and on Business Insider's 25 Most Powerful PR People. In April 2018, Marian moved to Switzerland and embarked on her greatest challenge to date, heading global communications at Philip Morris International (PMI) as it embarks on its journey to build a smoke-free future. Charged with developing a proactive, multilayered communications program to accelerate PMI's vision, Marian is forging active and productive alliances with NGOs, advocacy groups, regulators and other parties involved in shaping the environment in which a smoke-free future can be realized. Since Marian took charge of global communications at PMI, she has made bold strategic moves to transform the function itself and how it sits within the company. Her goal: reintroduce PMI into, as she puts it, “civilized society” and engage that society in meaningful conversations about the future of tobacco. Reporting directly to Global CEO André Calantzopoulos, she is remaking the group—including directly overseeing a staff of almost 100 communications professionals based on three continents who are responsible for media relations, scientific engagement, content development, crisis management, internal communications, sponsorships and more. She is ensuring that PMI is positioned at the forefront of a new discussion about tobacco and the reduced-risk products (RRPs) available today and in development. Marian Salzman—A Globally Recognized Trendspotter Before joining PMI, Marian was CEO of Havas PR North America for nearly a decade, and chaired its global PR assets known as its PR Collective (networked but not a network). There, she reshaped the creative output, creating one of the most buzzed-about boutique agencies in North America and achieving top-five status at key U.S. and global awards shows. Marian also served on the Havas Worldwide general managers group and as co-chairman of the company's first international steering committee for its social media assets. In recognition of these efforts, she was named PRWeek's PR Professional of the Year for 2011. Prior to Havas PR, Marian was the chief marketing officer at both Porter Novelli and JWT Worldwide and the chief strategic officer at Euro RSCG Worldwide (Havas Creative). Her first international assignment was in the 1990s, as the Amsterdam-based lead of TBWA's Department of the Future. Marian was also an entrepreneur who launched American Dialogue (Cyberdialogue) focus groups in cyberspace back in the early 1990s, when the online world was seen as a place for geeks and oddballs, ultimately selling the company a few years later. Her business partner then was advertising agency legend Jay Chiat; ultimately, he appointed her Chiat/Day's first head of emerging media and consumer insights ahead of Chiat/Day merging with TBWA International.
