I think it's extremely important for people not to confuse the role of press secretary with that of the communication director and to understand that the role of the press secretary is also different from the responsibilities of the typical Director of PR/Communication in the private sector.

I took a look at a different angle of this argument here - http://snurl.com/2cdfr .TMohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08382216894692118302noreply@blogger.com
