In this blog I' am going to introduce you to one of the most successful women in the PR industry and who has broken through the glass ceiling successfully.Ms Lynne Franks is an author, entrepreneur and lifestyle guru which has a communication reach that stretches across the world.
Lynne Franks is one of the best-known public relations consultants in the world, a newspaper columnist, and a commentator on women's issues, sustainability, and consumer lifestyles.
She founded her first company at her kitchen table when she was twenty-one. After 20 highly successful years she sold her PR agency to focus on using her communication skills to encourage partnership between business and society. Leaving her London-based agency in 1992, Franks traveled the world interacting with multinationals, nation states NGOs and grassroots organisations.
She created the major UK event ‘What Women Want’ to draw attention to the changing position of women in society, prior to attending the Beijing women's conference in 1994; she was also in charge of UK's first women's radio station and has become a spokesperson on women's issues and socially responsible business practices.
Lynne is currently developing SEED – Sustainable Enterprise Empowerment Dynamics, a network aimed at training and empowering, particularly with regard to sustainable enterprise. SEED has also become the provider of one of the most internationally recognised women's enterprise training programmes, as well as a global network for women entrepreneurs. The SEED Handbook, The Feminine Way to Create Business is an excellent manual for any entrepreneur that teaches how to nurture and create business based on integrity, personal values and openness. This book has been translated in a number of languages.
Furthermore, Ms Lynne Franks is also the founder and president of Globalfusion, a communications consultancy specialising in ‘new marketing’ connecting people, ideas, businesses, and community
