My Favorite Speaking Center Story

Beginning in 2008 we moved from marketing and promoting our center to public relations. Our PR efforts find us spreading and managing information about our organization. Most of these efforts are done via electronic platforms. Our My Favorite Speaking Center Story campaign launched in fall 2015. The first phase of the campaign has our current staff telling their stories. Future phases will include the stories of both our alumni and the speakers we work with.
