COVID-19 pandemic, as well as Omicron, has affected the world with people having different impacts and reactions. Hence, many PR Experts have been communicating about how through the PR Profession we could turn crisis into opportunities.
As Mr. Jaffri mentioned in his presentation, “Be there and be SQUARE, S-Q-U-A-R-E. We feel that the past two years and now from 2022 onwards, what has got to be Strategic, Quick, Unique, Agile, Resourceful. And, we put three E’s that for consideration number one, this word Empathy must come into play. Number two, the word Ethical behavior has got to come to play. And finally, with all the strategies and tactics we have as a PR practitioner if you don’t have Engagement and is not engaging, it doesn’t work. Therefore, SQUARE which stands for being strategic, quick, unique, agile, resourceful, and being engaging and ethical with empathy, as the icing is critical. So we need to consider SQUARE from 2022 onwards. And that has come to play more so with this digital disruption and the transformation that’s happening.”
