A bi-monthly open forum on issues facing IABC members in the workplace and in their careers

Topics Welcome!

As part of keeping the PR Forum Issues of Interest as topical and relevant to attendees, we are narrowing down our topics for our next meeting on Tuesday, November 17th.

Do you, the IABC member, have any topics that you would like to see discussed?  They should focus on issues or problems that you as a Public Relations/Corporate Communications practitioner are facing.  Of course, if you are in a related field please feel free to voice a topic as well.

We will do our best to incorporate your topics in the next forum, or an upcoming forum.
