From the Chair
From the Chair
Dear PRSA Banking and Finance Section Members,
I am thrilled to welcome you as the new Chair of the PRSA Banking and Finance Section for 2025. As we embark on this new journey together, I am excited and determined to make our group a dynamic and engaging forum where we can discuss the most pressing issues facing public relations professionals and communicators in the banking and finance industries.
As you well know, our industry is constantly evolving, and it is more crucial than ever to stay ahead of the curve. This year, we aim to make our group a vibrant hub for sharing and discussing the biggest challenges and opportunities in our industry.
Exciting Slate of Webinars
We are thrilled to announce a slate of timely webinars designed to provide you with valuable insights into the latest trends and hot topics. Our initial ideas include exploring the impact of Artificial Intelligence on our industry, navigating the
new Administration and its effects on banking and finance, and capturing mindshare for all stakeholders when it is harder than ever to capture attention. These webinars will feature expert speakers and thought leaders who will share their knowledge
and experiences to help you stay informed and inspired.
Interactive and Informal Conversations
We believe that informal conversations can be just as valuable as formal presentations. This year, we are introducing a series of coffee chats and virtual water coolers where you can share best practices, exchange war stories, and build connections with
your peers. These sessions are designed to be relaxed and conversational, providing a space for open dialogue and mutual support.
Creating Value and Fostering Community
Our primary goal is to create value for you as public relations executives and communicators. We strive to foster a strong sense of community where you can connect with like-minded professionals, share insights, and support each other's growth. By participating
in our events and discussions, you will have the opportunity to expand your network, gain new perspectives, and enhance your skills.
A Year of Growth and Knowledge Exchange
We are optimistic that 2025 will be a year of continued growth for our Banking and Finance section. We invite you to actively participate in our events and encourage your colleagues to join along to share in the exchange of ideas.
I look forward to seeing all of you throughout the year at our virtual Section events. Let's make this year a memorable and impactful one for the PRSA Banking and Finance Section.
Warm regards,
Tricia Ross
