Technology will fail you at the worst possible time. Your people and your plan cannot.
Single-channel communication is a single point of failure. From Katrina to COVID-19 to Hurricane Ida—organizations that survived crises didn't just have better technology. They had redundant systems, role clarity, and a people-first approach.
John Deveney breaks down the audit every organization needs before the next crisis hits. Read it at Deveney.com

Today, we remember the people behind the uniforms.
Not the flags, the parades, the long weekend. The people. The ones who didn't come home. The families who carry that loss every day, not just today.

We work in an industry built on telling stories — and some stories deserve to be told with everything you have.

To those who served, and to the families holding their memory: we see you. Thank you.

The problems are never the same twice. And even when they look familiar, you can't solve them the same way — because society moves, context shifts, and the old playbook stops working. That's what DEVENEY 3.0 is built for. DEVENEY founder John Deveney on why, 30 years in, the work is still just as alive as day one.

Every Sunday, Chef Tommy DiGiovanni runs the kitchen at one of the French Quarter's most storied restaurants — Arnaud's. For National Egg Month, he brought that craft to the Fox 8 kitchen — and the audience got a front-row seat to what's made Arnaud's a New Orleans institution for over 100 years.

DEVENEY congratulates the Canadian Automobile Association, recipient of the 2026 Jake Wittmer Award—one of the communication profession’s most prestigious global honors.

The Jake Wittmer Award recognizes extraordinary achievement in research, strategic communication, implementation, and measurable results. In 1999, DEVENEY was honored to become only the sixth organization worldwide to receive the award for work developed for the NO/AIDS Task Force.

To this day, the recognition remains one of the defining milestones in our agency’s history and a reminder that powerful communication can create meaningful, measurable impact.

Congratulations to the Canadian Automobile Association for joining this remarkable legacy of excellence.

Last week, Lindsey Andry represented DEVENEY at the PR Consultants Group annual conference in Portland, where communications professionals from across the country gathered around a theme that's hard to ignore right now: authenticity and authority in an artificial world.
The conversations in that room covered how PR pros are navigating AI, staying grounded in what makes their work matter, and finding ways to keep learning from each other across markets. Lindsey came back with sharper thinking, stronger connections, and a reminder of why being in the right room still counts for everything.
Good conferences change what you're thinking about long after they end.

One day. Four stops. A clear picture of what's moving this city forward.

We spent the day with BCM and the Greater New Orleans Foundation — stop after stop, organization after organization — seeing firsthand what it takes to move this city forward. Arts New Orleans & BioDistrict New Orleans. Bridge House/Grace House. Groundwork New Orleans. And a panel discussion at The 18th Ward's Trinity Community Center with leaders from The 18th Ward, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Louisiana, Live Oak Camp, and Upturn Arts.

Real work, real leaders, real impact.

Today we celebrate the women who taught us how to communicate with care, lead with strength, and show up every day with heart.

DEV 3.0 is built on reinvention — sharper tools, deeper expertise, a bolder vision. But reinvention only holds when the foundation is solid. For John Deveney, that foundation has never moved: put people first. Thirty years later, that's still the answer.
