At the end of 2023, PRSA assembled a group of 25 senior communicators from a wide range of industries, in-house and firms, for an additional meeting, with several follow-up meetings with subject matter experts, all spearheaded by Ray Day, 2024 PRSA Chair-elect. Three main actions emerged:

  1. We need to champion honesty and transparency, recognizing the need to enhance message strategies to outpace misleading information (which will always exist)
  2. We need to emphasize the importance of community-based listening and education, advocating for civil discussion to foster a more informed and respectful public
  3. The PR industry needs to become a trusted entity by reinforcing integrity and reliability across all communication channels
