New Trends in International Public Relations

by Silvia Cambie and Yang-May Ooi

 

Publisher: Kogan Page; Publication due date: November 2008

 


 

The Book Proposal

 

Globalisation and the wave of international mergers of the past years have had a profound impact on the work of PR practitioners and corporate communicators.

 

PR agencies are suddenly confronted with clients who, having bought a business in another part of the world, need to reach out to customers and engage employees in cultures they know nothing about. Corporate communicators are asked to develop strategies for markets they have never worked in and audiences they are unable to relate to.

 

We have never seen change of this magnitude in the PR sector. We are experiencing a shift brought about by a combination of new technology and new emerging markets. PR practitioners are under pressure to obtain results on different fronts. They have to learn about communication patterns used in foreign countries, and at the same time, they have to be able to integrate social media in their new global strategies. The Euroblog Survey 2007, conducted by the European Public Relations Education and Research Association, revealed that 85% of PR experts recognise that blogs and social software are revolutionising the way we communicate and at the same time the majority acknowledge that lack of proven ROI and personnel capability within their organisations are limiting factors for using social media as part of their communication strategy.

 

The book will address many of these concerns and provide readers with insights, practical tips and real-world case studies that will increase their cultural sensitivity and help them function in the global village.
