Regardless of industry sector, background, experience, title, job, age, gender or role, we feel we can all learn from one another. Each conversation or debate that moves us forward encourages curiosity about others and respect for their views. 

We’re all living through difficult times and wanted to share 12 articles that help reinforce that we’re all in this together…

Some of the topics we’ve covered during our virtual events…

  • Trust on Trial: How Communicators Succeed in a World No Longer Trusted – http://sumo.ly/14sVg

And now, on to our loyal contributors…

In a world where “content is king,” we are all looking for trusted partners that are well optimized and highly distributed, where we can write what we believe without fear of doxing and attack. Into the breach stepped CommPRO ten years ago offering an ever expanding array of distributed content and a community of hundreds of thousands of professional communicators who want to read, digest and discuss what you have written. Add to that that Publisher Fay Shapiro is one of the kindest, easiest to work with and abundance mentality professionals in the industry and you have a partner for life. Whether its articles, podcasts or webinars, CommPRO and Fay Shapiro are here to help you instantly and powerfully communicate to a critical audience. CommPRO is indispensable for our clients and for LEVICK and is often where we go to begin campaigns and emphasize points of view. Quite frankly, I don’t know where we would be or the industry, if CommPRO didn’t exist .Richard S. Levick, Esq., Chairman & CEO, LEVICK


Congratulations to you on the 10th year anniversary of CommPRO.biz!  I am so, so proud of you and what you have accomplished in building a global community of 200,000 people and enlisting the support of 10,000 contributors to help you serve them. CommPRO’s success is the result of yes, your vision, indefatigable drive and tireless work, but it is in large part due to your generous spirit and desire to support others in achieving their goals and dreams.  This is what I love and admire most about you!  You once told me that your life purpose was “To be a fearless hunter of opportunities to help yourself and others succeed.” I believe you are absolutely living your life purpose and leveraging your talents, expertise and passion in service of others.  This is why you have and will always be successful.  I love the fearless, purpose-driven leader that you are! Here’s to the next successful decade for you and CommPRO! I know what you achieve in the next 10 years will exceed your wildest goals and dreams. — Patrice Tanaka, Founder, Chief Joy Officer, Joyful Planet LLC


Congratulations on CommPRO’s ten-year anniversary:)! It’s been such an incredible journey.  I appreciate having covered so many of your engaging and thought-provoking events and am honored to be surrounded by so many of my gifted peers. I admire your hard-work, warmth, unending support and your focus on others. It’s no wonder so many people love you, Fay. You’re truly one-of-kind. Michael, I’ve always enjoyed your insights and conversations. The platform you’ve both created years ago with webcasts, webinars and live events, was somewhat of an untapped niche.

Now, with daily virtual events, the two of you were way ahead of your time. I can’t wait to see what the next year will bring. I have no doubt it will be filled with more educational, inspiring and original content. —Wendy Glavin, CEO, Wendy Glavin Agency

Congratulations to CommPRO on its 10th anniversary. Capitol Communicator has worked with CommPRO for a number of years, including on major conferences we have conducted for public relations/public affairs professionals in the Mid-Atlantic. With the support, encouragement and involvement of CommPRO, we have been able to bring speakers with a national perspective to our events and, in the process, made these day-long conferences more meaningful to hundreds of communicators.  We look forward to many more years of working with CommPRO and congratulate Michael and Fay on reaching this meaningful milestone. Paul Duning, Co-Founder/Publisher, Capitol Communicator


CommPRO has grown to become our field’s most valued platform, for news, opinions and an exchange of good ideas. It is increasingly attracting some of the most important newsmakers of our times– like Andrew Young, John Dean, Brian Stelter–providing communicators a unique opportunity to share perspectives and listen to new ones.  All in all, CommPRO has opened up our world, and demonstrates every day the growing importance of communications in culture, politics and the history we’re making every day. — Shelley J. Spector, Founder, Museum of Public Relations


“CommPRO is an invaluable platform that has allowed the Nation Black Public Relations Society and so many others share their ideas, insights and strategies to a community that is eager to listen, learn and engage. Congrats to Fay and her team – and all the best for many, many more years of building this network.”  — Neil Foote, President, National Black Public Relations Society


Happy 10th year anniversary to CommPRO  and the beyond fabulous Fay Shapiro!! Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to contribute several articles on communications and personal branding which received great play.  CommPRO’s events feature top-notch communication professionals and are always relevant and insightful.  I’m grateful to have participated in several  events.  My all-time favorite was having the honor to be part of a round table with Harold Burson, renowned founder of Burson-Marsteller.  Fay is ALL about uniting communications professionals and is a true talent.  Thanks for your many contributions to the communications industry and I look forward to continuing to be part of this unique community.—Stacey Cohen, President & CEO, Co-Communications


Congrats, Fay.  Here’s wishing you great success and rewards for the next ten years.  You have made substantial contributions to the PR industry and you deserve all the accolades you’re getting. — Art Stevens, Managing Partner, The Stevens Group


Congratulations on CommPRO’s 10th anniversary.  You were able to create a niche among the giants and you were able to stay the course where many couldn’t.  Through your hard work and perseverance CommPRO has become a must-read for the public relations, marketing, and integrated marketing communities.  Keep up the great work and here’s to the next 10 years. I am reminded of an old Arabic saying, “the person who knows the word hope, does not know the word impossible.”Samir “Mr. Magazine™” Husni, Ph.D., Founder and Director, Professor and Hederman Lecturer, Magazine Innovation Center, School of Journalism and New Media, The University of Mississippi


Congratulations on 10 years of positive impact, CommPRO.  I’ve appreciated your many contributions, including timely industry news, best practice articles, and meaningful professional development opportunities.  I am especially grateful for your consideration of issues involving corporate social responsibility and ethics, which are increasingly important for our world.Dr. David Hagenbuch, Professor of Marketing, Messiah University


“Congratulations on your 10th anniversary.

What has always struck me about Fay, and by extension, CommPRO, is the willingness to be of service. Whether it was supporting my launch of socialprvirtuoso.com (my first foray into ecommerce…I was terrified!), or supporting the evolution of my career through ideas or new, valued connections, CommPRO is remarkable for how it brings industry professionals from all across the globe together. Happy anniversary, CommPRO – and Fay, you are a rock star, and I’m privileged to know and call you “friend”! — Shonali Burke


As a communications expert for nearly three decades, I was around when Fay Shapiro started CommPRO. To say I am impressed with how she’s grown her media platform while still maintaining her community connectivity is an understatement. Fay and CommPRO provided me with access to their audiences just this month, and it is yet another underscoring of how much Fay puts purpose and people ahead of profit. She is, indeed, rare in this world. Her voice and her CommPRO sharing of news and information that matters is something so needed and for which I am grateful. Congratulations on your anniversary! Onward and upward, my friend!— Paolina Milana, Author & Founder of MadnessToMagic.com


Congrats Fay – this is a tremendous accomplishment that we are all celebrating!!!Tom Becktold, Founder/CMO, Insight Media Labs | NewsDriver


The CommPROapproach to commentary should be taught in all journalism and PR schools: Unlike other PR websites that limit free expression, and often edit out comments that they don’t like, CommPRO permits the free expression of thoughtful thought. I’m appreciate that CommPRO permits me to express my beliefs on topics ranging from sports, PR practices, media coverage and politics. It is one of the brightest stars in journalism. — Arthur Solomon


CommPRO has been a great resource and network of Communications professionals from all facets of business. — Silvia Davi


There are few platforms that attract and stimulate writers and public relations pros like me as much as CommPRO.biz.  “Unique” might be too soft a term for what Fay Shapiro has created as her sweeping array of latest industry news and opinion is not only a thought provoking, business friendly, morally insightful forum, but an intriguing outlet for critical thinkers and experts in their respective fields. — Thomas Madden, Chairman & CEO, Transmedia Group


Congratulations for ten amazing years of great content, wisdom and guidance. You set the bar high from the start and you continue to raise it every day. We’re all a bit wiser in life and business when our first cup—o-Joe is spend at CommPRO.biz Gerard Braud, CSP, Fellow IEC BraudCommunications.com
