PR pay hikes to be cut in half from sizzling '99 pace
Article Abstract:
Public relations (PR) professionals can expect to achieve moderate salary gains of 12%-18% in 2000, a sharp departure from the up-to-35%-in-pay increases that some PR professionals earned in 1999. Salary gains in 2000 will be more evenly distributed between those who change jobs and those who remain with their companies. Those who remain with their firms will make decent increases in pay during the year. This is because agencies will be more willing to promote people who stay with them in a tight job market.

Are you a palm or oak tree?
Article Abstract:
A public relations (PR) professional opines that PR people can be divided into two distinct groups, the 'palm tree PR professionals' and the 'oak tree PR professionals.' Palm tree PR people tend to go with the flow, move from one firm to another and constantly seek new challenges elsewhere. Oak tree PR people tend to adopt long-term strategies and stay with their companies. Both types believe that change is inevitable but although their attitude to change differs, they are both prepared for change. Both generally have more successes than failures in their careers, and consider success and failure as opportunities that need to be addressed.
