WHAT ISPUBLIC RELATIONS?
• Public relations is about reputation – the result of what you do, what you say and what others say about you.
• Public relations is the discipline which looks after reputation, with the aim of earning understanding and support and influencing opinion and behaviour. It is the planned and sustained effort to establish and maintain goodwill and mutual understanding between an organisation and its publics.

PUBLIC RELATIONS
• Giving your organisation a personality with which your target audiences can feel affinity
• Reputation is everything
• Perceptions are real – if you are playing to win, they have to be favourable
• Understanding is a two way street – shut up and listen once in a while
