It is important to be T-shaped and that means having a broad area of skills and knowledge with maybe one area of deep focus.
Advice for all seniors. Be prepared to zig zag in your career. #ScrippsPRSSA pic.twitter.com/PzQ7hPn3gZ — Melaina Lewis (@melaina_lewis) March 30, 2015
In travel & tourism PR, your audience is very specific. “More like a sniper rifle, rather than a shotgun,”
“Be vocal, be connected, be friendly.” @DannyCox #ScrippsPRSSA
