This is especially true when you indulge in hobbies that go beyond most peoples\u2019 perception of what is acceptable in modern society.<\/p>\n<p>According\u00a0\u00a0to\u00a0<u>newspaper reports<\/u>\u00a0\u00a0(<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/entertainment\/gossip\/confidential\/conf-hed-article-1.2311727\">http:\/\/www.nydailynews.com\/entertainment\/gossip\/confidential\/conf-hed-article-1.2311727<\/a>), Dr. Palmer faced a real crisis management problem when he was unable to find a crisis management PR firm to help him protect his dental practice which was being targeted by protestors. Considering the fact that the PR industry can handle the accounts of some pretty distasteful characters, it\u2019s easy to see how far the \u201cgood\u201d doctor strayed across the line of common decency.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, while most of us seek that elusive work\/life balance there is no watertight barrier between the two. Screw-up in your personal life and there is every possibility it will spill over into your professional life.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to his trip to Africa, Dr. Palmer probably thought he didn\u2019t require the services of a good PR firm beyond the occasional press release highlighting a new procedure or dental health message. In reality, he needed a good PR to protect himself from himself.<\/p>\n<p>Is it the job of a PR to go beyond the professional life of their clients? Should we be checking personal social media channels and delving into aspects of life not normally associated with everyday business?<\/p>\n<p>The moral of the story is a good PR (like the very best dentists) knows that prevention is better than cure, so it\u2019s time to brush up and ensure that good practice goes beyond that gleaming corporate smile.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-79175 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/pr-club-banner.png\" alt=\"pr-club-banner\" width=\"659\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/pr-club-banner.png 659w, https:\/\/www.vuelio.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/pr-club-banner-500x152.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ll wager the now infamous killer of Cecil the Lion, Dr. Walter Palmer, now understands it\u2019s virtually impossible to keep your personal and professional lives separate.
