"The best way to prep is to know going into a conversation or interview exactly what you want to get out of it, and structure your conversation around that goal. You can be assertive and effective in advocating for your client or organization, while keeping your dignity intact.” #SKDK’s Michael Czin told PRNEWS about the role spokespeople play and the value of credibility in being a voice for a client or candidate.

Today, we commemorate Juneteenth, a day that signifies freedom and progress in American history. On Juneteenth, we recognize how far we’ve come as a nation while also acknowledging the ongoing struggle for racial equality and justice.     #Juneteenth marks the day that the last enslaved African Americans learned of their freedom more than two years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, and freed more than 250,000 enslaved people. Today, the holiday’s historical legacy is honored with festivals, parades, and family gatherings in cities nationwide. It also serves as an opportunity to stand in solidarity with the Black community by supporting Black-owned businesses, contributing to causes, or engaging in community service or volunteer opportunities to promote social justice, education, and dismantle systemic inequalities.     On behalf of the Black Employee Resource Group at #SKDK, Sloane & Company, and Jasper Advisors, we recognize Juneteenth as an opportunity to acknowledge the past and commit to building a stronger, more equitable future. Through internal efforts prioritizing diversity, equity, and inclusion and external partnerships with organizations and institutions like Howard University, AdPR Academy, and The Posse Foundation, our firms carry out their commitment and advance an environment of respect and appreciation for all cultures and backgrounds.    Learn more about the history and significance of Juneteenth:   https://lnkd.in/dQP3RmM
