Edward L. Bernays Award
The annual Edward L. Bernays Achievement Award is the highest honor bestowed by MPRC to a single practitioner. An honorary member of MPRC until his death, Edward Bernays is recognized as the "father of public relations" for a lifetime of work integral to the recognition of public relations as a profession with scientific grounding.
In his spirit, this award recognizes a public relations professional who has exhibited extraordinary achievement and outstanding leadership in the public relations profession, along with community service and unmatched professional integrity and ethical behavior in their practice of public relations.
Nominations are typically due in September. All MPRC members are invited to submit nominations. The winner is then announced at the MPRC Annual Conference in October.
This is your opportunity to nominate an outstanding individual for MPRC's highest award. Download the nomination form below or contact Art Marcoux at info@meprcouncil.org or 761-4477 for the guidelines and nomination form.
