The Talking Points Podcast

Thanks for listening! Here’s the second edition of our “Hot Topics” series. The focus of the discussion in this show is on gender differences in the practice of public relations, and work-life balance for women in PR roles. We’re joined by Amelia Reigstad, faculty member at the University of Minnesota Hubbard School of Journalism & Mass Communication. And, Amie Hoffner, vice president and director, Corporate Communications, at TCF Financial Corporation. Reigstad recently researched how gender and different communication styles and personality traits of men and women contribute to the culture of the PR workplace. And, how PR practitioners often “perform” in their roles. While Hoffner has done research on work-life balance and the reality of what that means today for women in PR.
