The Past Week in PR: August 11, 2010


Because it's been a busy few days for everyone (waiting for New York Fashion Week credentials to be approved, last minute summer trips, etc.), I wanted to recap two of the most important pieces of PR news that have surfaced in the past week:


First, Jason Shuffler recently reported for PR Week that Ogilvy Senior Vice President Dushka Zapata has been promoted to head the San Francisco office.


Second, the PR crisis of the week involves former HP CEO Mark Hurd who recently resigned amidst allegations of sexual harassment. Hugh Collins reported for Daily Finance that Hurd hired Sitrick & Co., a PR agency well-versed in crisis communication, shortly before he quit.


Finally, some fashion PR news for those fashion-hungry:

Lisa Elia Public Relations firm launches "an affordable PR coaching program that enables emerging fashion and product designers to gain visibility."
