Programme Context

PR and Corporate Communications have carved a niche for themselves over the last one decade in India. With their increasing proximity to Board Rooms, expectations from them have too increased. They are being increasing invited to play crucial roles in key areas of strategy such as creation and nurturing of corporate brand. Even those firms which have relied only on product brands have in the recent years started creating and nurturing corporate brands. Instead of assigning this task to marketing professionals, firms are looking at their PR and Corp. Com professionals to become the architects and artists of corporate brands. This is a new opportunity for PR & Corporate Communications professionals.  A need was therefore being felt to prepare the PR and Corporate Communications professionals in this vital area.
