Dr. Rita Men, assistant professor of Public Relations at the UF College of Journalism and Communications, has been elected to membership in Page Up, an invitation-only organization for Arthur W. Page Society’s most senior staff leaders.

The Arthur W. Page Society is a professional association for senior public relations and corporate communications executives who seek to enrich and strengthen their profession, as well as leading academics from the nation’s top business and communication schools who have distinguished themselves through teaching corporate communication.

Men was nominated by Dr. Kathleen Kelly, Page Society member and public relations professor at UF. Nominees are expected to be a senior leader in their organization and considered to be a realistic candidate for a Page member-qualifying role within the next few years. Currently, there are more than 170 corporate, PR agency, educator and nonprofit members.

According to Kelly, Men is still early in her career, but has excelled at being a thought leader in public relations and has published a substantial body of research that has made a significant contribution to the body of knowledge and literature in the public relations field.

Men’s background is based primarily in corporate communication research and consulting. Her research interests include employee engagement, leadership communication, measurement and evaluation, relationship/reputation management and social media public relations.
