Build mental equity, build your brand: a Bader Rutter podcast, a podcast sponsored by Bader Rutter
2026/03/11
According to Bader Rutter CEO David Jordan, a brand's ultimate goal should be to become the reflex choice of consumers. The ultimate way to achieve that is by establishing mental equity. Think of it as an equation: Belief + Behavior = Mental Equity. During this discussion, Jordan highlights two recent campaigns — including a 2026 PRWeek Awards finalist in the Best in B2B category — to illustrate this innovative marketing approach, one that has reaped impressive and measurable benefits to the brands involved.

Building a Best Place to Work in PR — insights from the MDs that made it happen
2026/02/18
There is a difference between being a good, perhaps even great, place to work and being the very best. And that difference can make all the difference on so many levels, recruitment and retention of the best talent among them.
Everyone appreciates how important a “good culture” is to establishing the ultimate workplace, but few truly grasp the tactics necessary to achieve and/or improve upon it.
Most understand that leadership sets the tone when it comes to your workplace environment — whether in-office, remote or both — but many don’t realize that every person in the organization has a crucial role to play in this equation.
Being a “Best Place to Work” takes exactly that — work. It doesn’t happen by accident. It takes a plan. And this podcast will go a long way toward helping you devise that plan.
And our secret ingredient:
One leader each from three organizations that were named 2025 PRWeek Best Places To Work, all of whom are under the umbrella of our podcast partner, Syneos Health Communications.
Our featured guests:
-Arwen Evans, MD, Chamberlain Healthcare Public Relations
-Anna Khersonsky, MD, Chandler Chicco
-Alina Worth, MD, Biosector 2
The best way to learn how to do something is to hear from those who have done it. This event presents you that precise opportunity — and we look forward to you joining us for it.

Good content
Good content, but for the love of God turn off your music after the intro. It makes it incredibly distracting.
