A good PR person should first be great with people. You should be able to ask and answer questions, engage in small talk, and publicly speak to largish audiences.
You should have a firm grasp on the official language of whichever region you’re in. You should excel at proper written and oral communications.
Next, you should have some mind for politics. PR almost always involves politics– how to leverage public interest.
Arguably, a good PR person is relatively attractive and photographs & videographs well. Always looks “put together” in public.
