I believe that being aware of your skills are good but it is also very important to be aware of your weaknesses. With some of the skills I present I will also give some advice on how you can strengthen these skills. Creativity is a very important skill to have in Public relations because this can play a big part with strategic planning whether it is to plan a campaign or to garner more publicity. One way in which you can improve your creativity would be to incorporate brainstorming into the goal at hand. You can bounce ideas off of other people. Another skill would be having knowledge of the audience in which you are trying to send your message to. This can be done by creating different ways to gather information about the demographics through surveys and other methods. The third skill to would be to have good written communication skills. This can take you far in Public relations and in any career in which you are interested. You can improve your verbal skills would be to practice writing and to get others to check your mistakes.
