What do Forrest Gump, corporate boardrooms, and global beer brands have in common? Honestly… more than you’d think. In this episode of The Brandinc PR Podcast, I’m sitting down with Dayna Adelman — 15-year PR powerhouse, former HEINEKEN comms exec, and freshly minted author of The Youngest One in the Room. We’re diving into her career full of unplanned (but wildly meaningful) escapades, what it’s really like being the youngest voice at the table, and the PR bloopers that still make her blush.
We’re also getting real real about:
🍺 How leading PR across the U.S., Indonesia, and Amsterdam is basically the communications version of speed dating
📝 What writing her first book taught her about storytelling outside the boardroom
⚡️ And yes… we’re unpacking the latest AI-generated interview PR scandal (because what’s a modern PR chat without a little drama?)
If you’ve ever been the “youngest one in the room” — or just the one quietly Googling acronyms during the meeting — this one’s for you. Press play and bring snacks. 🍫
