Changing the Curb of Qatari PR Industry

Clearly, representation matters. The truth is that the Qatari PR industry is now celebrating diversity after having Harriet who is taking the industry’s standard to a whole new level. However, more needs to be done to ensure women in the PR world get a fair share of boardroom presence. For an industry that is one-third women, there is more room for progress and for better representation. Harriet is paving the way as a beacon of hope in the right direction.

Empowering Women in the PR Industry

There is a need to create open platforms where women can learn, share, and access mentors. But, there is also a need for the industry to give women a fair shot and space to thrive and achieve, because if we are to go on Harriet’s – and many more – great examples, we know that women in PR are absolutely more than capable, resolute, and passionate to do an excellent job. The current assumptions and realities about the PR field are changing for the better, and Harriet is amongst those who will continue to help and improve the bigger picture.
