Perfectionism and Whitewashing in the PR Industry

Have You Got 5 Minutes? - A podcast by Rebecca Roberts & Harriet Small

Categories:

At best society has a weird obsession with perfectionism as a trait for success, but not only is that notion unhealthy, there’s a far darker side to it as a construct in society. We talk about how it can limit your career as well as your mental health.  We take 5 minutes to share our thoughts on the erasure of ethnic minority talent in the Public Relations and Communications industry and why marketing and PR awards risk missing amazing work.    S10, Ep1 How to Fail: Jameela Jamil https://howtofail.podbean.com/e/how-to-fail-jameela-jamil/    Our Dangerous Obsession With Perfectionism IS Getting Worse - Social psychologist Thomas Curran https://www.ted.com/talks/thomas_curran_our_dangerous_obsession_with_perfectionism_is_getting_worse?language=en   Adrian Tomine’s “Love Life”  By Françoise Mouly Art by Adrian Tomine https://www.newyorker.com/culture/cover-story/cover-story-2020-12-07    Harriet’s Tweet to Digital PR Examples https://twitter.com/HarrietSmallies/status/1362108294182100997   The DICE Charter https://www.getdice.co.uk/dicecharter   Find Rebecca:  Twitter: https://twitter.com/rebecca7roberts https://twitter.com/threadandfable   Linkedin: Rebecca Roberts  Website: https://threadandfable.com/ Podcast: The Hear It podcast    Find Harriet: Twitter: https://twitter.com/HarrietSmallies   Linkedin: Harriet Small Website: https://www.commsoveracoffee.com/
