Not every person is cut out to organize and plan for events. However, organizing events is an important tactic nowadays if you wish to let your target audience notice you and experience your brand amidst competition and the busy and usually traffic world of traditional and social media. With proper training, tools, and practical insights, one can learn how to organize an event effectively. This is what PR firm BrandSpeakAsia believes in as they organize the second installment of a workshop for students, #CoffeeTalk: Creativity At Work, held recently at Commune Cafe, Makati City.

#CoffeeTalk invades UP Manila’s PR Month celebration!

Taking learning beyond the ever traditional classroom set up gives students a dozen of opportunities to absorb their book-learned concepts and put them into practice. Learning becomes more effective when students are given the opportunity to interact with executives and managers from the corporate world as they are presented with real life scenarios about the workplace. Taking students outside of class and placing them into a more realistic context to learn and think together with other student leaders from other universities unleashes the students’ critical thinking and problem solving skills, harnessing constructive competition while strengthening interpersonal and social skills among others is a vision put to life by a group of creative thinkers at BrandSpeakAsia, a young but dynamic PR firm that defies traditional PR with its out of the box ideas.
