Two of testimony
American public relations professionals come together on at least one fundamental as it is about success: knowledge of business and management.
The first evidence comes from Fraser Seitel , a New Yorker of experience and renowned author . It even has a brief profile on Wikipedia . One can also see a more complete profile on LinkedIn . It also seems to take his first steps with Twitter ...

Internal communications specialist, Batchelor worked for several major organizations before devoting himself to teaching. Interestingly, his research and work focuses, among other things, on popular culture. Batchelor writes notes on his blog PR-Bridge .

Here is the video made by the firm Ragan in July 2009: Approx. 6 minutes.
As Batchelor, his goal now is to improve knowledge of its students in management. Business challenges and / or management must be understood for what they are: first et surtout des enjeux d'affaires et non plus seulement des enjeux de communication...
