    CEO Briefing: Wendy Lane Stevens

    This morning, our CEO Wendy Lane Stevens took part in the CEO briefings at the Portland Business Journal’s BizGrowth event. Wendy spoke about LANE PR’s growth over the last 20 years and what sets her firm apart from other mid-sized national PR firms in the area. Wendy gave advice to aspiring PR professionals, spoke about what she looks for when she’s hiring new employees, and what attributes an agency must have in order to grow and flourish in today’s unpredictable economy. It was a quick 15-minute Q&A session with editor Rob Smith, but the short format still provided great information and interesting insights.

    Governor Kitzhaber was also the keynote speaker at lunch and the day ended with a networking event.
