The need for multifaceted PR professionals is also essential in a world where virality and a 24/7 news cycle are part of everyday life. Consumers continue to hold their favorite brands and businesses accountable for social and political issues. PR teams must act quickly and strategically to maintain a positive relationship with their audiences. According to a report by Edelman, 43% of professionals said COVID-19 and the events of 2020 significantly disrupted their communications agenda. Some 73% of chief communications officers also report that social issues shifted their communications agenda.
