In the March issue of The Buzz, IABC/Toronto’s Professional Independent Communicators celebrate International Women’s Day. It’s a time to uphold women’s achievements, recognize challenges and focus attention on women’s rights and gender equality.
PIC Chair Jacqui DeBique finds plenty of unsung women of PR after falling down the internet rabbit hole researching “the father of PR.”
We expand our usual 3×3 conversation to learn more about four accomplished PIC members: Meredith Adolph; Linda Andross, ABC, MC; Priya Bates, ABC, MC, SCMP, IABC Fellow; and Nathalie Noël. Find out how they empower other women, how they make their voices heard and if they have any female heroes.
Our PIC Personality this month is Sarah Manley Robertson, ABC. After 26 years in corporate settings “operating in a patriarchal system that teaches women how to suppress their natural strengths,” she tells Brent Artemchuk why she took a break from corporate life.
All this and more in March Buzz.
