PIER Systems Founder to Present at PRSA Pandemic Flu Communications Teleseminar
Gerald Baron Offers His Expertise to Discuss H1N1 Flu (Swine Flu) Communication Strategies
Bellingham, Washington (PRWEB) May 10, 2009
Gerald Baron, Founder of PIER Systems, the leading provider of Web-based communications technology, is a featured presenter at the PRSA (Public Relations Society of America) Pandemic Flu Communications national teleseminar on Tuesday, May 12th, 2009. The teleseminar will focus on the recent H1N1 flu (aka Swine flu) outbreak and the many challenges communicators face in the shadow of such highly publicized events as health related crises.
Baron will discuss how communicators must strategize and plan how they will distribute information in a world where people demand "instant news"--many of them getting the latest headlines from social media sources such as blogs, Tweets, social networks and other forms of online sharing.
He will also speak about the ways communicators should present their information to the public--that they must use precaution to avoid widespread panic, monitor and respond to misinformation and rumors, while keeping a constant flow of information continually available to internal and external stakeholders.
Steven L. Davidow, president of Davidow Communications, Inc., will co-present with Baron at the event. The teleseminar will air May 12th, 2009, at 3:00pm (Eastern time).
