Internal Crisis Communication: Crisis Awareness, Leadership and Coworkership
by Mats Heide Charlotte SimonssonWe live in a crisis society, with traditional media responding on a minute-by-minute basis on daily, seemingly inevitable, organizational crises. Whether crises have become more prevalent or we're simply more aware of them, they are now of great concern to organizations and crisis management and communication is a priority. Most organizations have a crisis response plan; many have dedicated crisis and security management staff. Yet much of the emphasis has been on action outside of the organization. Neglecting communication between managers and employees, they risk poor, inconsistent crisis management and the very real possibility of crisis escalation. Crisis management, like charity, begins in the home. Internal Crisis Communication is one of the first guides to communication inside organizations, before, during and after a crisis – not just on the acute crisis phase – to provide a complete and holistic guide for managers that will help them manage and contain crises. It includes an in-depth real-life case study, referred to throughout, from the author's own experience, which makes practical application explicit and the methodology clear. Strengthened by rigorous academic research and tested in real-life crisis situations, the methods included in this book will be invaluable for communication professionals, security officers and crisis managers, as well as valuable reading for students and researchers interested in crisis and risk management.

by Pantea Foroudi Morteza AkbariThere has been a growing interest in the subject of internal marketing: issues and perspectives, principles, foundations and concepts in recent years amongst academics and practitioners because there is a belief that successful and improvement in a competitive market gains through deliver better service to customer (firstly, to internal customers; i.e., employees of organization) and create satisfaction in them which in turn influence consumer patronage and loyalty, and consumer decision-making. The significant role of the internal marketing is to developing and maintaining relationships with the internal stakeholders of a contemporary organisation. There is an extensive belief in today's society on how the company viewed by key stakeholders such as investors and shareholders, consumers and customers (both internal and external), members of the community and employees in which the company resides.The challenge is to explore new and effective ways to harness the power of the communication opportunities it presents to engage with stakeholders in interactive, immediate and innovative ways. Any successful communication campaign will include them in its strategy. We view the study of the relationship between internal marketing, internal and external stakeholders, and companies to be timely topics for further investigation.

The International Business Environment and National Identity (Routledge Studies in International Business and the World Economy)
by Tatiana GladkikhGlobalisation influences every aspect of post-modern social reality. However, little empirical research has considered how globalisation affects people’s perception of their national attachments. This book explores the nature of national identity in our increasingly globalised society. "Who Are You?" is the question that it addressed in conversations with international business travellers whose exposure to different cultures, languages and values through their business travel and interactions with their foreign colleagues brings a new slant on their vision of the world. How does it influence their understanding of themselves? The International Business Environment and National Identity is based on interviews with Russian and British business travellers whose views on their national identity and the role of global business in shaping it offer a new insight on our understanding of the impact of global forces on contemporary society. The book discusses the respondents’ practical experiences of their international encounters, their impact on shaping their personal identification and highlights differences and similarities in people’s articulation of their national belonging. The issues of understanding the self and the effects of globalisation on business people’s professional and personal lives are at the core of the book’s investigation. The International Business Environment and National Identity will appeal to students and researchers of international management and cross cultural management as well as those studying intercultural communication and globalisation.
