The Final Ethics Edit ❤️

We’re wrapping up Ethics Month with one final reminder: Ethics isn’t just for Ethics Month!

Ethical thinking should be part of the decisions, messages, and advice we give every day as PR professionals. Recognizing ethical risks and asking the right questions can help us safeguard the trust we work so hard to build.

Ethics Month may be ending, but our responsibility to communicate ethically continues.

The Thursday Ethics Edit ❤️

Who’s in your ethical inner circle? The people around us can play an important role in helping us navigate the gray areas of ethical decision-making.

From the truth teller to the contrarian, a strong inner circle can challenge your thinking and offer perspectives you may not have considered. The key is being willing to listen when they do!

Before you collaborate, investigate! Influencer partnerships can open the door to new audiences, but choosing the right partner takes more than looking at follower count.

Research, communication and consideration of key stakeholders all matter before saying yes to a collaboration.
