EXTERNAL INFLUENCES ON PUBLIC RELATIONS
Some of the key issues affecting corporate strategy relate to globalization and the new technology, which have brought about the globalization of markets, the devel­opment of worldwide networks, a widening of member-ship for pressure groups and a broader analysis of competition. It therefore seems an almost pointless exercise to plan strategically in a chaotic environment in which the notion of managing risk ap­pears by definition to be a misnomer. If the power of individual nation states to con­trol national economies has become limited, the problems of a borderless world be­come more acute.
As most public relations practitioners know, campaigns have to be planned at the global level, but acted out at the local level. The importance of region states or areas is defined by some degree of economic logic which may lie within a nation state or cross-nation state boundaries. So, just as the relevance of the nation state is being called into question, it is apparent that the modern multinational is continuing to lose what was left of its national character.
Reich (1990) gives the example of Whirlpool which now employs 43,500 people around the world, most of them non- American, in 45 countries. He points out that Texas Instruments does most of its research and development, design and manufac­turing in East Asia.
Reich showed that a company’s most important competitive asset is the skills and cumulative learning of its workforce if it is equipped to compete in the global econ­omy. Jolly (1996) wrote that, as evidence of a global public relations strategy, a com­pany must be able to demonstrate selective contestability and global resources.
Selective contestability is where the corporation can contest any market it chooses to compete in, but can be selective about where it wishes to compete. It is prepared to
73
contest any market should the opportunity arise and is constantly on the global look­out for such.
The corporation may have to bring its entire worldwide resources to bear on any competitive situation it finds itself in anywhere in the world. Customers know that they are dealing with a global player even if it is employing a local competitive for­mula. Thus global strategies are not standard product market strategies which assume that the world is a homogenous border-free marketplace. Nor are they just about global presence. If what the corporation does in one country has no relation to what it does in other countries that is no different from dealing with various domestic com­petitors. Finally, globalization is not just about large companies now that the internet makes it possible for small companies to trade worldwide.
Answer the questions:
1. Should specialists make a strategical plan?
2. What is the importance of region states or areas defined by?
3. How many people does Whirlpool employ around the world?
4. What is a company’s most important competitive asset?
5. Explain in your own words what Selective contestability is?
Discussion:
1. Name the effects which globalization brings?
2. In your opinion what the most important asset for a modern company is?
3. Give ideas about the nearest future of the profession concerning globalization
and new technologies.

HOW TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS PUBLIC RELATIONS
Technology had impacted public relations in several ways by the beginning of the 21st century. In 2001, Edward J. Lordan suggested that communication technologies primarily have influenced how practitioners conduct research and then package and distribute information. Research includes access to a wide range of electronic intelli­gence gathering sources, including the Web, proprietary databases, and specialized research software used in surveys and content analysis that improves monitoring situ­ations and enhances the ability of practitioners to assume the role of a true manager versus merely a technician. Packaging includes the more sophisticated production and archiving of materials in digital formats by using word processing, database, graphic design, and electronic presentation software. Distribution covers the digital dissemi­nation of information through the Internet, voice and text messaging, facsimile, and satellite uplinks and downlinks in addition to traditional systems.
Whether communications technology has improved the productivity and effec­tiveness of the public relations practice is yet to be fully understood. However, the public relations practice clearly has been impacted in the following various ways:
Volume of Information.
The sheer amount of information available to people has increased and, in general, organizations are making more and more information accessible than in the past. This requires the careful management, organization, sharing, and archiving of larger and larger volumes of organizational knowledge.
Speed of Information Exchange.
Information can be distributed more quickly due to real-time information delivery systems. In turn, there have been greater demands from audiences to access available information on a timely basis. This has led to the blurring of time, haste, and com­petitive pressures that did not exist in earlier times.
Audience Choice.
A fundamental shift has occurred that shifts the decision making about infor­mation access into the hands of the audience versus the organization. Audiences have more channels available to access information and often dictate when and how they access information. Thus, many public relations operations today operate on a 24/7 basis.
Changed Relationships.
Whereas technologies were thought to be tools to disseminate information, they have been shown to actually create new constituencies for organizations and new op­portunities for organizations to interact with constituencies. New Internet-based tech­nologies, for example, allow organizations to engage in true two-way communication that can equalize power relationships. Technology also enables organizations to facil­itate communication among various constituencies important to the organizations, not merely between the organization and those constituencies.
78
Control of Information.
The breakdown of boundaries that delineate an organization from its external en­vironment, the flattening of hierarchical structures, and the expanded sharing of or­ganizational knowledge through the use of technology have all made it difficult for management to limit the flow of organizational information and intelligence. This problem has been exacerbated by changing social values that pertain to propriety of organizational information, confidentiality, and privacy and calls for institutions to make their activities more transparent.
Ownership of Information.
A special extension of the control issue is that new technologies facilitate the du­plication, archiving, and sharing of information by third parties after it has been dis­tributed by an organization initially. Thus, possession of information is increasingly being assumed by others, leading to the perpetuation of misinformation as well as undesirable information that otherwise might fade from the public domain. This rais­es several concerns for organizations that can be exploited by information at-tackers, hackers, lurkers, rogues, and thieves.
Formats for Information Dissemination.
Information is being distributed in a variety of different forms now using both analog and digital formats. Moreover, public relations professionals must provide the same information in several different forms to meet requirements of audiences, re­sulting in increased costs and staffing needs for many public relations operations.
Answer the questions:
1. Do communication technologies have impacts on aspects of the PR specialist
work?
2.What is the reason a PR practitioner can be called a real manager?
3.What consequences can be seen as result of a faster way of transmit-ting infor-
mation?
4.What opportunities for changing relationships among constituencies and organi-
zations became available due to communication technologies?
5.What is the danger the author expresses concerning the ownership of infor-
mation?
Discussion:
Give examples of how PR specialist use modern technologies. Compare the work of PR specialist of 19th? 20th and 21st centuries.

TEXTS FOR SELF TRANSLATION
1. MEDIA INFLUENCE ON PUBLIC RELATIONS
Public relations people work with the media in many ways. This unit discusses how to prepare for press interviews, organize а news conference, conduct а media tour, and write such materials as fact sheets, press kits, and op-ed articles.
The unit begins with а review of how reporters and public relations people аrе mutually dependent upon each other for accomplishing their respective goals. It also mentions areas of friction that often contribute to an adversarial atmosphere. An im­portant part of the relationship is based оn mutual trust and credibility. For your part, you must always provide accurate, timely, and com­prehensive information. Only in this way can any medium do its job of informing readers, listeners, or viewers about matters of importance to them.
Public relations sources provide most of the information used in the media to­day. А number of research studies have substantiated this, including the finding that today’s reporters and editors spend most of their time processing infor­mation, not gathering it.
1,200 New York Times, Washington Post front pages were studied as far back as 1973 and it was found that 58.2 percent of the stories came through routine bureaucratic channels (official proceedings, news releases, and conferences or other planned events). Just 25.2 percent were the products of investigative journalism, and most of these were produced by interviews, the
result of routine access to spokespersons. As the report said, “The reporter cannot depend on legwork alone to satisfy his paper’s insatiable demand for news. Не looks to official channels to provide him with newsworthy material day after day”.
А New York public relations firm, Jericho Promotions, sent questionnaires
to 5,500 journalists worldwide and got 2,432 to respond. Of that number, 38 percent said they get at least half of their story ideas from public relations people. The percentage was higher among editors of lifestyle, entertainment, and health sections of newspapers but much lower among metropolitan reporters, who spent most of their time covering “hard” news. In other words, public relations materials save media outlets the time, money, and effort of gathering their own news.
2. SOCIAL MEDIA CATEGORISATION
Social media dates back to the launch of the first weblog, Open Diary, in 1998 (Kaplan & Haenlein, 2010; Martinviita, 2016). Since then, social media has continu­ously evolved into different types of platforms (Burns, 2017) such as blogs or social networking sites. For instance, the first social networking platform, Friendster, was created in 2002, followed by the business networking site LinkedIn during 2003.
