Download or read book Seat at the Table s written by Marlene Sue Neill and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars have advocated that public relations executives need to seek a seat at the table among the most senior officers in the organization, referred to as the dominant coalition. However, this study found that public relations practitioners also need to seek a seat among the division leadership team and executive-level committees to fulfill a valuable internal boundary spanning role, a role that has been neglected in public relations theory. Consistent with social capital theory, the contacts that public relations practitioners developed allowed them to gather intelligence across the company and then they used that information to help their companies make better strategic decisions and avoid costly mistakes. Through in-depth interviews with 30 senior executives from a variety of disciplines, three other services were identified that enhanced public relations' power and influence: online reputation management, external boundary spanning and advocacy, and stakeholder analysis. Factors that enhanced or hindered public relations practitioners' ability to perform these services were also identified. Favorable conditions included the use of integrated decision teams, Theory Y management, perceptions of public relations as a strategic business partner, commitment to transparency in communication, internal relationship building, and the integration of public relations' activities with core business objectives and operations. The study also examined why informal coalitions are formed and found they existed in both companies with strong adherence to hierarchy and those with decentralized management, a finding that contradicts previous theory.

Book PR AS PERSONS IN RELATION

Download or read book PR AS PERSONS IN RELATION written by Dr. Joseph Parackal and published by Educreation Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars and practitioners opine that public relations are all about building and maintaining an organization's relationship with its public. As human relationships depend on personal interactions, so, it naturally necessitates ethical as well as anthropological aspects. In fact, a vast majority of the scholars have already portrayed the ethical responsibility of the organization and the practitioner while dealing with various people. But a few of them have pointed out that public relation is needed to view anthropological perspectives, which, in turn, will be significant and virtuous for human beings. Accordingly, practical functional approach is the foremost requirement to overcome in dealing with the public relationships. Therefore, while exploring the public relations literature, we have tried to integrate these three aspects (relational, ethical and anthropological) and propose a reasonable ethical framework for the professional practice of public relations based on the dignity of the person.

Book The Role of New Public Relations Practitioners as Social Media Experts

Download or read book The Role of New Public Relations Practitioners as Social Media Experts written by Nicole Marie Lee and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study uses the theoretical framework of public relations roles research (Broom & Smith, 1979; Dozier, 1983; Dozier & Broom, 2006) to examine the roles performed by new public relations practitioners with five or fewer years of professional experience. Recently, social media tasks have become increasingly prevalent in the practice of public relations (Wright & Hinson, 2009b). Observation has shown that professionals with five or fewer years of experience perform these tasks far more often than more experienced practitioners. This qualitative study explores this phenomenon through in-depth interviews with new public relations practitioners across the U.S. from a variety of organizational settings. The findings from this study provide insight on (1) why new professionals are performing this role, (2) whether social media tasks are being performed as a manager or technician function, and (3) what the implications are of new professionals focusing on this role. This study differs from other roles research in that it focuses on new practitioners and looks at their perspective of the roles they perform. This study is designed to benefit new public relations practitioners and the future of the public relations profession by determining whether new professionals are obtaining the diversity of skills necessary to advance the profession or whether new methods of training and assigning tasks should be assessed.
