Celebrating Hispanic Culture in a Divided Landscape: The Role of Public Relations Professionals
As a Puerto Rican, I carry my culture with me wherever I go (I will always be Puerto Rican first!). To me, it is more than an identity, it is a rhythm, a resilience, and a celebration of community that cannot be silenced. Recently, I had the privilege of experiencing Bad Bunny’s residency in Puerto Rico, an event that was not only musically powerful but also deeply cultural. It was a space filled with love, pride, and unapologetic expressions of who we are as a people. His artistry has become more than entertainment; it has become a cultural movement.

Strategic Reset.
Strategy is “future competitive advantage”. What will the people we sell to need in the future? Who will we be competing with in the future? Given these people needs and competitors what advantage will we provide? A case can be made that every organization and every individual who has not updated their strategy in the past three years must do so with urgency because we are seeing the contours of the future shift dramatically.
