This month is all about elections as Stripe Group Account Director, Shaun Bell is standing as Chair of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) Scotland and we’re giving him our support.
Under his manifesto, Shaun plans to bring together the thriving community of PR professionals in Scotland, grow CIPR membership and importantly,
- Illustrate how CIPR Scotland members and the wider PR community can get support through tough times
- Increase visibility and understand of PR in boardrooms
- Support PR careers and inspire the future leaders of our industry
- Improve diversity in the Scottish communications industry
Shaun is truly passionate about life-long learning, career development and innovation so we’re not surprised he’s pledging to launch a ‘Here To Help’ initiative to support the PR community, introduce a ‘Director Skills Series’ to boost boardroom skills, and the expansion of the CIPR Scotland’s Future Leaders and Fellows Mentorship programmes.
With proposed new partnerships with the IoD, Marketing Society, PRCA, NUJ and Women in Journalism on top, we think Shaun has the interests of all comms professionals working in Scotland at heart.
So, join us and vote for Shaun – you can read his manifesto here and CIPR members can register to vote at the Scotland AGM here.
