How PR Expert and Marathoner Lissette M. Rios Gets It All Done — on Her Own Terms

Meet Lissette Rios, one of the most influential Latinas in the public relations industry. After 15 years of working at global PR agencies with major brand clients including Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Nintendo, General Motors and others, she founded Chic Influence - her very own PR and talent management agency. Prior to founding her own company, she left the corporate world as a Senior Vice President of a global PR firm. Her agency is the complete opposite of how corporate America trained her. As a bicultural and bilingual expert, she combines “two markets": the “general market” and the “US Hispanic” market. Beyond her professional career, Lissette is an avid runner who has conquered the 2019 NYC Marathon and just completed the 2021 Chicago Marathon. We talked about creating a business plan, her productivity hacks to get everything done and still have a work/life balance and how she negotiated a salary increase after realizing she was severely underpaid.
