The first episode will go live on February 15, 2018, exclusively on the PRSA Member App, and will feature Lisa Ryan, SVP/Managing Director at Heyman Associates. Corbin and Ryan will discuss the current state of the PR job market, including what recruiters are looking for, where today's opportunities are, the skills most in demand, and the pros/cons of specialist vs. generalist.

The podcast represents a fresh, strategic initiative to inform members about how professionals across the country are managing the evolving profession. "How I Communicated That" will map to PRSA's key editorial themes for 2018, seeking to assess how technology and societal change are affecting key communications disciplines such as creative storytelling, reputation management, crisis communications and employee engagement. 

"We're thrilled to be working with Jeff and APPrise Mobile on this podcast series," said Joseph Truncale, PRSA CEO. "Professionals in our industry face a shifting landscape awash with both challenges and opportunities, and hearing from peers who have successfully handled some of these situations makes for highly valuable content."

"When I started as a PR consultant, the comms world was a very different one – photocopying releases, stuffing envelopes, wining and dining correspondents," said Jeff Corbin, CEO of APPrise Mobile. "Today's audiences consume information through very different channels, and this is the perfect time for a thoughtful look at how some of the industry's leading communications experts handle common but complex challenges. The PRSA Member App is a great place to host our podcast."

Upcoming "How I Communicated That" guests will include Eileen Sheil, Executive Director of Corporate Communications for Cleveland Clinic.
