What an extraordinary few months it's been! A period in which PR has played such a central role. This issue we look back and learn - from the elegant comms around the Queen's funeral to 25 years of The Considerate Constructors Scheme. And we look forward, offering insight and practical help to your most pressing issues: how to build trust with the C-Suite, where to start with your ESG strategy and why the Boomerang employees could be the answer to the talent crisis. And finally we glean insight from this month's Access guests - what are the editors really looking for as they plan their 2023 content? Discover all here. I hope you enjoy the issue. See you in December.
