PRSA Rochester Chapter Rising Star Award
The PRSA Rochester Chapter seeks your input for the Rising Star Award.
This award recognizes a public relations professional, with no more than seven years of experience in the field, who demonstrates exceptional competence, skill and leadership potential.
Nominations should qualify how the candidate has successfully utilized the function of public relations to achieve significant, measurable outcomes for their company or clients. Nominations should also convey a sense of how this 'young' (based on years in the profession not age) professional uses her/his talents to give back to the community.
A panel of PRSA past presidents, the current president and president-elect, and other current board members will review the pool of nominees. The panel has the option of not selecting a recipient in a given year. If a recipient is selected, the award will be presented at the PRism Awards ceremony.
Please email the nomination form and a copy of the nominee’s resume to Joy Auch at Joy.Auch@Excellus.com. The final deadline for these nominations is Friday, March 8, at 11:59 p.m.
