Interngerichtetes Issues Management: Eine theoretische und empirische Analyse von konflikt- und chancenhaltigen Themen in der internen Unternehmenskommunikation
by Frederic VuillerminKontroversen, Änderungsvorschläge, Verbesserungsinitiativen oder Gerüchte – wie gehen Unternehmen mit diesen und weiteren konflikt- oder chancenhaltigen Themen in ihrer internen Kommunikation um? Was tun, wenn gerade diese Issues von Mitarbeitenden und Führungskräften initiiert werden: Themen aufgreifen oder erstmal schweigen und beobachten? In der Arbeit werden sogenannte "interne Issues" definiert und Ansätze diskutiert, wie diese an der Schnittstelle zu den Forschungs- und Praxisfeldern der Unternehmenskommunikation "Interne Kommunikation" und "Issues Management" analysiert, identifiziert und gesteuert werden können. Ein zentraler Beitrag der Arbeit ist zudem ein Handlungsmodell "Interngerichtetes Issues Management", was sowohl die theoretischen Erkenntnisse als auch die Ergebnisse einer qualitativen Studie mit Top-Kommunikationsverantwortlichen aus Unternehmen zusammenfasst.
Internodes
by Ken Belford BelfordMoving with nomadic grace across the terrain of his previous book, Decompositions, the poetic language of Ken Belford in Internodes shares similar roots, traversing decades at the speed of a search query - pressing onward through Hazelton, the Bulkley Valley, and the unroaded head-waters of the Nass River in the Damdochax Valley - and meanwhile coming to terms with a poetry that "is lived" on the rugged streets of Prince George.In this twenty-first-century evolution, and one may say "mutation," of Marshall McLuhan's oft-repeated adage that "the medium is the message," Belford's text takes into account the nature of viral marketing and the impact of similar forms of social "trending" on our lives and our language, challenging linearity and order in favour of a work that may be read forward or backward or experienced with an abrupt sense of intimacy, in media res.Whether reflecting upon the internodal segment that is a vital part of a nerve cell; upon the relationship between the nodes and internodes of a plant stem; or upon the internode merely as an interstice of jargon amid connections we forge through high-speed telecommunication and wireless networks, the text invites the reader to make an informed decision before inviting others to "Like," to "Favourite," or to otherwise invest their social currency in Internodes.In addition to perceiving the poem as the "means of transmission" over time, Belford's poetic lines welcome readership as a form of collaborative action and agency in an age of crowdsourcing and flash mobs - and also as a form of ongoing social process that is sensitive to the life and demise of many of the decision trees that ultimately nourish our wavering notions of the future.

Interpersonal Communication: Evolving Interpersonal Relationships (Routledge Communication Series)
by Pamela J. KalbfleischInterpersonal relationships are the core of our societal system and have been since before the dawn of civilization. In today's world, friends, lovers, companions, and confidants make valuable contributions to our everyday lives. These are the relationships whose members are not automatically participants as a result of their birth and kin affiliations. The focus is on these relationships that must be forged from the sometimes indifferent, and sometimes hostile world. Yet, there is still much that is not known about how these relationships evolve, how partners communicate in on-going relationships, how people keep their relationships together, and how they cope when they fall apart. Primary to the focus of this book is the underlying theme of evolving interpersonal relationships from the initial encounter to the mature alliance. The contributors to this volume provide a contemporary perspective for the study of interpersonal relationships. Fresh areas of scholarly inquiry are presented and existing approaches are re-examined. Research in the introductory chapters breaks new ground, and appraises the ultimate question of what impact initial interactions have on further relational development. The mid-section of the volume concerns communication issues that confront the members of a relationship in process, focusing on how conflict and jealousy are communicated to a relational partner. This research considers relational development as well as obstacles and barriers to evolving relationships. The concluding chapters probe the question: Ultimately do all good things have to come to an end? Employing innovative techniques to examine maturing and disengaging relationships, the research presented here focuses on how interpersonal relationships become committed and mature.
