13. Explicating Relationship Management as a General
Theory of Public Relations
Published in: Journal of Public Relations Research,
Volume 15, Issue 2 April 2003 , pages 181 - 198
Author: John A. Ledingham
Although the relationship management perspective of
public relations is the focus of a substantial body of
scholarship, a theory of that perspective has yet to be
articulated and explicated. Herein, I review the emergence
of the relational perspective, summarize the relevant
literature, and construct a theoretical statement of that
perspective. I then argue for relationship management as a
general theory of public relations and offer suggestions for
future research within a relational paradigm.

development

Publisher: Emerald Group Publishing Limited
15. Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to outline concepts that explore
and extend the significance of public relations as a relationship
management discipline.
Design/methodology/approach – The paper postulates practice
through which value is created to meet organisational objectives from
the known or latent potential of tangible and intangible assets. In
doing so, a definition and early research findings into the nature of
relationships is put forwards and a definition of organisations as the
nexus of relationships is proposed. The differentiation between
organisational and interpersonal relationships is explored through a
concept that organisations' tangible and intangible tokens are limited
by a concept of materiality in a cultural setting.
Findings – The paper posits that material value is released through a
process of relationship change and a public relations practice of
relationship management is put forward as a management discipline
that can create value when the process of relationship management
acting on material tokens is deployed.
Originality/value – The paper explores how a public relations is an
agent for changing the value of organizations.

Dimensions of an Organization-Public Relationship.
Authors :Ledingham, John A.; Bruning, Stephen D.
18. It States that scholars and practitioners are defining public
relations as relationship management. Identifies, through
qualitative research and verifies through quantitative
research, relationship dimensions upon which good
organization-public relationships are initiated, developed,
and maintained. Surveys 384 telephone subscribers in
territories competing for local phone service. Indicates that
relationship dimensions of trust and commitment

provider. (PA)
19. This paper explains that, by deploying
positive public relations strategies within the organization
itself, employees, who are often its most effective marketers to
the outside world, are encouraged to spread the word about the
organization to friends, family, potential consumers, and
stockholders. The author points out that an effective
internal public relations campaign can help build
credibility,manage risks from unhappy employees, and establish
a reputation of a positive and up-and-coming company through
positive word-of-mouth, which drives sales figures upward. The
paper stresses that the first step to positive
internal publicrelations is to create a corporate community by
showing an interest in the employee's family life and life outside
of his or her immediate job responsibilities.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of organization-
public relationships on publics’ perceptions of a crisis and attitudes
toward an organization in crisis. This study used a quasi-experimental,
between-subjects design in which 262 participants were exposed to a
fictitious crisis case at their university and the university’s four different
crisis-response strategies. The results of a two-way ANOVA revealed that
regardless of the level of relationship, publics in the internal cause
group were more likely to attribute responsibility to the organization
than were those in the external cause group. A three-way MANOVA found
the unique effects of relationship, crisis responsibility, and the type of
crisis-response strategy on attitudes toward the organization in the
crisis, but two-way and three-way interactions among these predictor
variables were not significant. The findings suggest that the cultivation
of relationships with publics, as well as the effective use of crisis-
response strategies, is an essential part of successful crisis management.
21. This paper discusses what public relations means to a company's
success and what effective public relations are supposed to achieve
for a company. The paper explains that effective public relations is
dependant on the company's ability to provide a positive
company image to the public, focus on the stakeholders related to
the company and produce a public relations plan that will serve as
a guide for all public relations issues. The paper also explains that
companies that are capable of in-depth planning with regard
to public relationshave the ability to handle any issues that arise
with positive outcomes. This includes damage to the company's
image for any number of reasons and the company's ability to
recover successfully. The recovery will ultimately be dependant
on the image that the public has of the organization and
the public's knowledge of honest concern that the business has in
association with thepublic as stakeholders in the business.
22. "First and foremost, PR serves as an educational tool for managers,
employees, and customers. It can explain and demonstrate the quality
vision of a corporation when presented in a true and real fashion.
Moreover, public relations personnel must always be evaluating the
concepts of this vision of quality. Constant evaluation must lead to
improvements of the vision so as to avoid a stale plateau in the
progression of the company. Credibility is lost without originality, and
corporate employees tend to have a short attention span if they have
already seen the used presentation method before. The information
that is being presented to the company must be valid as well. The main
purpose of public relations teams is communication. This point was
stated earlier by Cutlip. This communication is a constant process,
thereby establishing the responsibility of PR people to be able to
provide information on demand. This ever-running cycle of
communication causes a long-term outlook within public relations
professionals. They, therefore, become future planners for corporations
as well
