The PR Week: 9.17.2026 - Jon Harris
Notes de l’épisode
It’s definitely something on the minds of in-house communications execs: How is the chief communications officer position changing? Does it matter if it reports to the CEO? Is it shrinking in importance? The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Torod Neptune raised those questions in an op-ed last week, and Jon Harris discusses them further on this week’s edition of The PR Week.
Plus, Harris talks about his expectations for entries for the PRWeek Awards 2027 and discusses the biggest PR and communications news of the week, including Frank Shaw stepping down at Microsoft and concerns about safety — human safety, to be specific — related to AI.
On November 12th, join hundreds of top marketers in New York City for AI Deciphered, presented by Campaign, MM+M, and PRWeek. Get your ticket here
