Mike Cherenson, Chair-elect for PRSA, has spoken to our organization in San Diego at the National Assembly, Buffalo at the Northeast Regional Conference and in Detroit introducing the keynote speaker.
Cherenson often delivers the same messages to students but as they are such important messages I figured they are worth repeating here:
1) Love what you do!
2) Make your own luck!
3) Network-the more people you know, the more powerful you are!
4) You need the picture to put the puzzle together! What does the picture on the top of your puzzle box look like?
5) You don’t build relationships sitting in an office!
6) If you don’t go and you don’t use it then you will get nothing out of it!
Mike says that the keys to his success are a passion for what he does and work balance. As a second generation PR practitioner, Mike’s stories about his dad and his family show how important they are in his success and his work visiting students across the country and the dedication to his industry he shows through his blog display his passion for making the world of PR a better place.
