Plan for your success

426 282 Admin

The Globe and Mail put the sheer courage of the Olympic downhill skiers in perspective on the weekend with their illustration of the Sochi downhill course. They showed the top of the mountain at 1,075 metres and compared it to the CN Tower far below at the 553 metre mark!

During the Olympics we experience moments that inspire and motivate us. We see athletes pushing the limits of their courage and endurance, teams coming together in the final moments to win deciding games and athletes performing while enduring incredible pain.

These stories inspire us to challenge ourselves to be the best we can be and to challenge ourselves to face risks. For many, those risks involve trying something new – taking on a new challenge at work or seeking new opportunities outside our comfort zone.

These moments also remind us that it took years of training for these athletes to even get to the Olympics let alone “own the podium.” We too must look well in advance and plan for our futures. We are here to help you plan for your success. Join us on March 5 for our career planning workshop with Roxanne Crammer, Partner and Career Coach at CCC Academy and watch your career soar.

Mount Saint Vincent University, in partnership with The Canadian Public Relations Society, is inviting you to participate in the Canadian arm of the Global Generally Accepted Practices (GAP) VIII study. You have been invited to complete this online survey because you are a senior level Public Relations practitioner located in Canada. The survey is funded by a research grant from The Communications + Public Relations Foundation.

The Global Generally Accepted Practices (GAP) VIII study runs every two years in the United States and is conducted by University of Southern California Annenberg Strategic Communication. This year USC has joined with Academic Partners in five countries to develop a global version of the survey. This survey is also being conducted in Brazil, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand and the USA.

The GAP VIII study:

  •  Provides the industry with practical information useful for PR practitioners to better manage the communication functions in their organizations.
  • Identifies best practices against which they can benchmark their own organizations.
  • Pinpoints trends to be aware of as they plan for tomorrow.

Thank you for participating in this study.
