PR Masters Podcast 100th Episode Welcomes Industry Visionary Jim Weiss
In the 100th episode of the PR Masters Podcast, host Art Stevens marks this milestone with a deeply personal and inspiring conversation with one of the communications industry's most transformative figures: Jim Weiss, Chairman and Founder of Real Chemistry.
From his early days at Genentech during biotech’s formative years to building one of the most influential health innovation companies in the world, Jim has always been ahead of the curve—embracing data, technology, and a purpose-driven mission to make healthcare more human. In this wide-ranging discussion, Jim reflects on the guiding values that shaped Real Chemistry’s journey, the convergence of communications and business strategy, and how artificial intelligence is reshaping the future of PR.
With characteristic candor and vision, Jim shares hard-won lessons on leadership, mentorship, and creating real impact—from advancing DEI and health equity to supporting the next generation of communicators through his work at Syracuse University’s Newhouse School.
It’s a fitting conversation for a landmark episode—one that celebrates not just the past 100 episodes of PR excellence, but the road ahead for an industry in transformation.
Listen in and be inspired.
