#FridayForum: Gerry Corbett on 50 years in the industry (and if 2025 PR is actually better than 1975)

Gerry Corbett is a PR thought leader and former PRSA chair and CEO. We follow his five-decade career from the beginning, when he reeked of garlic and spent his days in wind tunnels, to a fruitful corporate comms stretch working with 17 CEOs. He led PR for large farm equipment, heavy industry, real estate and aerospace companies. In this episode, we hear why it's difficult for older PR pros to find work, how to nurture your creative side and why Congress doesn’t like expensive hammers.
