June 2019 Newsletter Table of Contents From the President July Program Diversity Blog Sunshine District Conference Upcoming Webinars PRSA Speakers Bureau Membership Promotion Kudos PRSA Orlando Job Board Marketing Coordinator Sentry Management Director of Strategic Communications Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values PR Specialist Wellons Communications President's Letter It feels like just yesterday when I first sat down to write the January newsletter, and here we are, halfway through 2019; how did that happen? For some of you, this month may mark the end of fiscal year for your companies. For others, you may still have many months to go. No matter where you are on that calendar, now is a good time to stop and reflect on where you stand against your goals and objectives, and what may help you continue your achievements. Your PRSA membership and chapter are here as a resource, with a strong national network and a multitude of professional development opportunities. In lieu of our monthly breakfast, PRSA Orlando Regional once again partnered with FPRA this month for the Media Mashup, during which, we were thrilled to officially recognize and celebrate our newest accredited members. The next events on deck are our July breakfast and the district conference. I’m particularly excited for our July 18 breakfast featuring the partnership between Corkcicle and Rifle Paper Co. These beloved Orlando‑grown brands have achieved global success in a highly competitive environment – their strategic partnership having played no small role in making that happen! Registration for this breakfast (kindly sponsored by Xperient) is now open. Also, don’t forget to “set sail” with PRSA members from throughout the state at the PRSA Sunshine District Conference, July 25‑27 in Tampa. The illustrious keynote lineup includes industry influencer Sarah Evans and the national chair of PRSA, Rt arbqhad O` rsH r r t dr Sq` mrk ` sd
