Tough times call for straight talk from the Boss.

No spin, no massaging, no goobledy-gook. Please. People want to know what’s really
going on. So, they can help.

This is why the Communication Excellence in Organizations Awards, or simply the CEO EXCEL, is most timely and relevant during these times of uncertainties.

“Your Boss may not need another award, and he or she may not even want it that much.
But if the chief goes for the CEO EXCEL, that’s a powerful signal to the troops
to communicate better with their own publics or customers for them to remain
loyal to the company or the brand.”

So says the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Philippines through its president Roni T. Merk, head of Merk Communications, as she announced March 9 as the deadline for nominations.

Forms are available at the IABC Secretariat, tel. 750-5667 and 501-5024, and 497-1450, or email iabc_philippines@yahoo.com, info@iabc.com.ph or open http://www.iabc.com.ph/inc/pdf/ceo_nomination.pdf

IABC is the leading PR and communication group in the Philippines.
Globally, it counts 14,000 members in 70 countries, and is based in San Francisco, CA.

The CEO EXCEL has been conferred on some of the most outstanding CEOs, Presidents and heads of companies, public offices, foundations and NGOs, and LGUs. Awardees may be Filipino or non-Filipino
executives operating in the Philippines.
