Download or read book THE MILITARY AND PUBLIC RELATIONS Issues Strategies and Challenges written by Col. (rtd) John Adache PhD and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Relations practice, its approaches and methods have become widely and deeply entrenched in business, government and in many other complex organizations especially in the developed nations of the world. In same manner, its relevance and utility as tool of institutional promotion have equally come to be appreciated in the Armed Forces. The text therefore, within context of the evolution, growth and development of the broad discipline of Public Relations appropriately situates its practice in the military. It articulates and highlights in-depth, the many aspects to public relations practice in the armed Forces drawing examples extensively from especially the experiences of the United States and UK Armed Services. Divided into Four Parts, the book examines the role of the Military in society and traces the evolution of modern public Relations and its development in the military. Under 'Public Relations Principles, Approaches and Practice", it analyses the role and function of public relations in the interface of military and society, and further highlight the purpose of military public relations, its targets, strategies and tactics. It examines Public Relations practice in the Nigerian Military including public perception and management. Current and topical Issues in Public Relations and Communication such as 'Technology, the Military and Public Relations', 'Social Media, Public Relations and the Military', 'Security Threats, Crisis Management and the Role of Communications', and 'Challenges to Military Public Relations Practice' were analyzed. The book finally concludes with 'The Importance of Military Public Relations in a Democratic Society'. Given the perpetual need to constantly `keep the military in the public eye', the book strongly posits that it is appropriate that public relations be properly positioned as the strategic machinery through which the military could seek to identify with the people and invariably, national interest in order for them to render accounts of their performances and seek informed public support as obtains in developed democracies. This book will be a useful source of reference to especially military public relations officers and indeed all military officers across the world. It further should bring forth better insight to the understanding by the civilian populace, communications professionals, and research scholars specializing in military public relations or public affairs operating in diverse regions of the world.

Download or read book Contemporary Challenges Impacting on the Practice of Public Relations in Nigeria 1990 2011 written by Olusanmi C. Amujo and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article analyses some contemporary challenges impacting on the practice of public relations in Nigeria. It covers the period from 1990, when the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) was officially recognised by the Federal Government through a charter called Decree No. 16 of June 1990, to now. The analysis was based upon archival review of academic and professional literature, and supported with expert interview data. The study also explores conceptual models underpinning the practice of public relations in Nigeria. This article contends that despite changes including conferment of chartered status on the NIPR by the federal government, enactment of a code of conduct by the institute and establishment of a professional public relations diploma, public relations practice faces some critical challenges in Nigeria. The authors suggest ways to solve some of these challenges so that public relations can become a profession with senior managerial functions in the country.

Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, , language: English, abstract: Public Relations popularly known as (PR) can be defined as the practice of managing the distribution of information between an organization (such as a government agency, a business organisation or individual and the public. It may entail an individual or organization gaining access to their target audience using topics of interest to the public as well as new materials that do not require direct payment. Public relations is based on the idea of creating reports or coverage for clients free of charge as opposed to advertising and marketing. The main aim behind public relations is informing the public, employees, prospective customers, partners, and investors among other stakeholders. Companies apply the same strategy to ensure stakeholders maintain a certain view about its activities, political decisions, products, and leadership. Public relations professionals work for businesses and companies, PR and marketing firms, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations among others. They create and maintain good relationships between their employers and their target audience, opinion leaders, and the media. Common roles include designing communications campaigns, working with the press, writing new releases, writing speeches for organization leaders, and managing company reputation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Along with such traditional management tools as budgeting, HR, planning and leadership, The Practice of Government Public Relations, Second Edition demonstrates that the 21st century government administrator needs new tools to address the changing context of government communication. It provides public managers with an understanding of the uses of public relations as tools to advance the goals of public agencies, including media relations, contributing to an informed public, public branding, listening to the citizenry, and crisis management. While no manager can be an expert in all aspects of public administration, this book will help managers know what external communications tools are available to them for advancing the mission and results of their agencies. The authors argue that government public relations activities can serve three broad purposes: mandatory activities, which support governance; optional activities, which offer a pragmatic means of improving policy outcomes, inputs, and impacts; and dangerous but powerful activities, which may serve political interests. The book focuses on practitioners throughout the public sector, including the US federal government, state and local governments, and public administrators outside of the US. Several new chapters address the use of digital communications as social media and the resultant rapid diffusion of information has transformed the responsibility, accessibility, and vulnerability of government communications. In addition, two new chapters examine the topic of branding, its growing influence in the public sector, and how it can be used to connect with citizens and increase public engagement. The Practice of Government Public Relations, Second Edition is designed to help government managers are various levels of administration looking to specialize in public relations, those assigned to communications offices, and program managers seeking innovative and cost-effective ways to implement their programmatic missions. It will also be of interest to students of publication administration who will become the government workers of the future"--
