Depends on what you’re looking at it for. Awards, sure. Networking, questionable (unless you’re on the board in some capacity... there always seemed to be more unemployed job seekers at the events I went to than other employed folks to learn from and network with). Panels, so so depending on subject matter.

Brand Strategy/Planning roles aren't typical in PR. So every new Account hire arrives with no experience working with a Strategist. I'm tired of explaining/showing my role adds necessary value. I love strategy, but I have an offer at another agency to move into Account as Group SVP. They want to "customize" the role for my experience, but I'm afraid it will just be on paper and people will expect me to know things I just won't. I can't afford to be fired. Thoughts? Considerations? Watch-outs?
