  • Communication Planning: Agility is a Game Changer in Strategy Development

    Open Access•Betteke Van Ruler•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021•Cited by: 3•References: 3

    The purpose of this conceptual article is to explore what agility means for communication planning. Agility is focused on adaptation to change. A review of current communication planning models shows that most models are focused on long-term detailed planning with little room to fully adapt to change. In contrast, agility encourages to focus on choices to be tested, not only at the output or tactic levels but for every choice in the strategy. Thi…

  • Communication management in the public sector: Consequences for public communication about policy intentions

  • Reflective Communication Management, Future Ways for Public Relations Research

    Betteke Van Ruler, Dejan Verčič•ARTICLE•Annals of the International…•2005•References: 18

    In this chapter, we propose a two-by-two-dimensional definition of communication and management deriving four basic models of communication management as a result. These analytical models reveal four historical public relations approaches, and looking at these models, it is striking that all are positioned at the behavioral level, that is, on (members of) organizations and their publics. The societal level remains totally neglected. We argue that…

Nevertheless, little is known about crucial aspects of public relations in Europe and so far there is even lesser debate and knowledge exchange on these aspects. The research projects we have conducted so far show that public relations is a multi-dimensional c…
