PRCA's (and Francis's) bold stance on ethics in the Bell Pottinger case represents a ground-breaking moment of both courage and commitment in PR leadership that all professionals, academicians and students should consider, going forward. This PRCA case stands in stark contrast with the U.S.-based PR association's ethics code (an \"inspiration\"-only model of practice that includes no accountability mandate or credible adjudication process for firms or practitioners breaking rules of professional conduct) -- an ongoing compliance failure that Kelly and Mary Beth speak out against. Francis explains why ethical compliance and accountability matter -- and must be taken with utmost seriousness -- if the profession is to advance globally and achieve respect.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/7eR5sKS1OW4lYm8bkD_JS7pm4lVYGoSLBM99Ci1ja1o/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84YzI5/NjAyYmRlN2IxZTNh/OTBlZjQwM2I5MTIw/ODMxNC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
