As a woman working in a female dominated industry, Women in PR helped me stand out from the crowd and offer an edge to rise above. Know your worth and prove yourself in your organization. There will always be challenges, but hard work, determination and passion will trump anything.

“It can help someone sharpen their vision for their career path.”
Everyone is on their own journey and if there are insights I’ve learned throughout my career so far that can help someone sharpen their vision for the path they want to pursue, or avoid some of the mistakes I’ve made, I’m happy to help other Women in PR leaders.
Christine Marks , Director, Corporate Communications, Goldcorp Inc.
“Surround yourself with people through organizations such as Women in PR North America.”
What is most important for women leaders is to be bold, be provocative in your thinking, take risks and surround yourself with people through organizations such as Women in PR that believe in our vision.
Chitra Anand, Doctoral Researcher, Professor and Speaker
If there’s one thing that all successful business women know, it’s that flying solo can be challenging. In the world of business, it’s better to be a part of a community. It lets you learn from the success of others and opens doors that you may have never even considered. In other words, individual empowerment will be easier when there is a collective backing you.
In any industry, your growth prospects will depend to a great extent on your network. A network enables you to share your experiences, seek guidance, and offer support whenever necessary.
You won’t have to worry about building a network on your own. You will be joining one the moment you become a member of the Women in PR Collective Club.
You're in the right place.
Build a personal brand that represents who you are and what you want to be known for with our blueprint ($300 value). For a limited time, we are giving you this course for free when you join the annual plan so you can learn how to communicate your personal brand as a successful PR pro.
