This book was released on 2019-03-04 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional approaches to strategic communication have focused on a single leader's ability to influence stakeholders and other audiences through exceptional communication skills. But there is much more to it. What about the content of the message? How well does the message permeate the organization, allowing it to speak and act as one with the leader? Is it necessary to change minds, or is it sufficient to discredit opposing messages? Using a broad base of literature from organizational studies and the author's experiences, this monograph offers a thought process for building communication campaigns that focus both internally and externally to the organization. Includes a Foreword by Mari K. Eder, U.S. Army Major General Retired and author of Leading the Narrative: The Case for Strategic Communication.

Download or read book Two Case Studies of Successful Strategic Communication Campaigns written by Thomas P. Galvin and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic communication has come to be a popular term to describe the process by which U.S. military organizations managed and unified their planned communications efforts. Unfortunately, joint doctrine leaves many of the words associated with strategic communication undefined, including themes and messages, and "strategic communication" has long suffered from definitional problems. While many commentators and experts have criticized the shortcomings of U.S. communication efforts, especially in operational environments, very little attention has been given to documenting success stories that suggest tools that leaders can use to design and implement campaigns. This book details two case studies of successful strategic communication campaigns-the Multi-Year Roadmap in Stabilization Force-Bosnia and the creation of the U.S. Africa Command. Both campaigns began in environments unfavorable to the commanders and their organizations but, in both cases, the campaign helped turn perceptions of the command into a more favorable light. The book concludes by drawing on the facts of the two cases to present a general architecture for communication campaigns applicable in both enterprise and operational contexts.

Book excerpt: "This paper attempts to address a perceived gap in UK defence thinking which currently has little documentation on the emerging and cross governmental art of Strategic Communication. After defining the term, this paper attempts to locate its utility within the defence community, considering its relationship with Media and Information Operations. The paper notes, that at its core, Strategic Communication can only be successful when three processes are clearly understood: the role of strategic communication in campaigning, the actual cognitive process of communication and the empirical analysis of target audiences. The dangers of over-reliance upon polling are considered concurrently. The paper concludes with the place of Strategic Communication withinUK military operations, the need for robust measurements of effectiveness and a short assessment of the challenges of emergening and new media"--P.

This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Senior leaders are told in doctrine that they must lead and manage change.
