CSOM – The Rearview Mirror and the Road Ahead

Since this was the last episode of the year, Adrian and I decided to take a walk down memory lane and talk about our favorite episodes and the ones that resonated the most with our listening audience.

The Top 10 episodes of the past year were:

A Pop Star and a Football Player Walk Into a Cracker Barrel

Launching the Knight Center for the Future of News at ASU’s Cronkite School

Metrics vs Meaning: Measuring the True Impact of PR & Communications Campaigns

Where Everyone Belongs: Developing Leadership in Middle School with Sandra Fink

The End of Celebrity Endorsements? Meet the New Brand Champions

AI in PR: Embracing Opportunities and Addressing Concerns

Celebrity Reputation Management and the “Dark Side” of Public Relations

Internal Communications: How to Talk (and Listen) to Employees in Uncertain Times with Nikki Little

Holiday Marketing Madness: Can We Cut Through the Noise?

Rebuilding Trust in Government, NGOs, and the Media: Is It Even Possible?

And those were some of my favorites as well.

I especially like when we have guests on the show, so a special thanks to: Dean Battinto Batts and Julia Wallace from the Cronkite School at ASU; Nikki Little from our PRGN partner in Detroit, Franco; Sandra Fink; Samantha Villegas; Alice Ferris; and Chris Kline.

We’re working on next season as we continue to discuss topics of interest to those of us in journalism, public relations, marketing and communications.

Here’s to a happy holiday season and a wonderful year ahead.

Thanks for listening!
