22. What is a relationship?
The state which exists between an organization and its key
publics in which the actions of either entity impact the
economic, social, political and/or cultural well-being of the
other entity.
(Ledingham & Bruning, 1998, p. 62).
!
!
Relationships consist of the transactions that involve the
exchange of resources between organizations.
(Broom, Casey, & Ritchey, 1997, p. 91).
23. The PRINZ DeďŹnition
Public Relations shall be deďŹned as
the deliberate, planned and
sustained effort to establish and
maintain mutual understanding and
excellent communication between an
organisation and its publics.
24. A deďŹnition for the new era of
public relations
Public relations is a strategic communication
process that builds mutually beneďŹcial
relationships between organisations and
their publics.
25. The DeďŹnition Rainbow
DELIBERATE: Public relations activity is intentional. It is designed to inďŹuence, gain
understanding, and provide information, and obtain feedback.
PLANNED: Public relations activity is organised. Solutions to problems are
discovered and logistics are thought out. The activity is systematic, requires research
and analysis, and takes place over a period of time.
PERFORMANCE: Effective public relations is based on actual policies and
performance. No amount of public relations will generate goodwill and support if an
organisation is unresponsive to community concerns.
PUBLIC INTEREST: Reputable public relations activity is mutually beneďŹcial to the
organisation and the public; it provides for the alignment of the organisationâs self
interests with the publicâs concerns and interests.
TWO-WAY COMMUNICATION: Public relations is more than one way dissemination
of information or materials. It is equally important to solicit feedback.
STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT OF COMPETITION AND CONFLICT: Public relations
is most effective when it is an integral part of decision-making by top management.
Public relations involves counselling and problem-solving at high levels, not just the
dissemination of information after a decision has been made by other leaders.
26. Axioms of
organisationâpublic relationships
1. Organisationâpublic relationships are transactional
2. The relationships are dynamic; they change over time
3. They are goal oriented
4. Organisationâpublic relationships have antecedents and
consequences and can be analysed in terms of
relationship quality, maintenance strategies, relationship
type, and actors in the relationship
5. These relationships are driven by the perceived needs
and wants of interacting organisations and publics
27. Axioms of
organisationâpublic relationships
6. The continuation of organisationâpublic relationships is
dependent on the degree to which expectations are met
7. Those expectations are expressed in interactions between
organisations and publics
8. Such relationships involve communication, but
communication is not the sole instrument of relationship
building
9. These relationships are impacted by relational history, the
nature of the transaction, the frequency of exchange, and
reciprocity
28. Axioms of
organisationâpublic relationships
10. Organisationâpublic relationships can be described by type
(personal, professional, community, symbolic, and
behavioural) independent of the perceptions of those
relationships
11. The proper focus of the domain of public relations is
relationships, not communication.
12. Communication alone cannot sustain long-term relationships
in the absence of supportive organisational behaviour.
13. Effective management of organisationâpublic relationships
supports mutual understanding and beneďŹt.
14. The relationship perspective is applicable throughout the
public relations process and with regard to all public
relations techniques.
