Description - Excellent Public Relations and Effective Organizations by James E. Grunig

This volume is the final product of the "excellence project" - a comprehensive research effort commissioned by the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Research Foundation. It contains many new statistical analyses of the survey data and more details from the case studies. Discussing theory and data related to several ongoing discussions in the communication profession, this book answers the following questions: How can we show the value of public relations?; What is the value of relationships?; How do relationships affect reputation?; What does it mean to practice communication strategically? How can we measure and evaluate the effects of public relations programmes?; Should communication programmes be integrated?; How does the new female majority in the profession affect communication Excellence? The book, as well as the research it reports, is the product of symmetrical communication and collaboration. As such, it is intended for scholars, applied researchers, students and informed professionals who understand the value of research in developing a profession such as public relations.
Knowledge of quantitative and qualitative research methods should make it easier to understand the book; however, the results are interpreted in a way that makes the analyses understandable even to those with little or no knowledge of statistics and research methods.
