Ross discussionI attended Southern New Hampshire University (SN.docxhealdkathaleen
Ross discussion:
I attended Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) for my undergraduate program. My program was a bachelor’s in liberal arts: General Studies. The program outcomes are located at https://www.snhu.edu/online-degrees/bachelors/ba-in-general-studies.
A general studies degree allowed me to bring over credits that I had earned earlier in life, while allowing me to focus on my area of concentration. The program outcomes included learning how to apply critical thinking into the areas of study that were of interest. It provided a broad base of courses that I was able to customize to my needs ("General Degree," 2019).
Southern New Hampshire University’s mission, vision and goals are as follows “SNHU transforms the lives of learners. Our success is defined by our learners’ success. By relentlessly challenging the status quo and providing the best support in higher education, SNHU expands access to education by creating high-quality, affordable, and innovative pathways to meet the unique needs of each and every learner” ("About Us," 2019, para. 2). The SNHU vision states, “Make the world a better and more just place through our work, one learner at a time” ("SNHU Strategic Plan," n.d., p. 9, para.2). Core values are key to the university, exude passion, challenge the status quo, do the right thing every time, exhibit grit and embrace diversity.
The mission and vision and core values can be found at: https://snhu-externalaffairs.app.box.com/s/7k526w442reszti50fdtceyrre2f1il8.
In my experience the university met not only the program outcomes, but it also met it’s mission, vision and core values in my undergraduate program. I was supported by the university, challenged and was offered educational opportunities that were greater than the status quo found at other institutions. The staff and instructors were passionate about the material being taught and always treated me with the utmost respect and when I had concerns or issues with grading or materials they always sought to offer me options that were right for me and my learning disabilities.
Program assessment begins with a clear explanation of the mission, vision, gals and desired learning outcomes of the program. Statements should include what the graduates of the program should know, do and value by the time they complete their studies. The assessment of learning outcomes will help to identify if the program is accomplishing what has benn set to provide and allow for continuous improvement of the program (Banta & Palomba, 2015).

This document discusses qualitative research methods. It defines qualitative research as aiming to gather an in-depth understanding of human behavior. Qualitative research is described as subjective, interpretive, and focused on answering "what" and "why" questions. The document contrasts qualitative and quantitative methods, noting that qualitative research typically involves fewer respondents, observation, and coding of responses, while quantitative research relies on larger sample sizes and tabulation of results. Examples of qualitative methods provided include ethnographic research, focus groups, interviews, and literature reviews. The document then provides examples of how qualitative coding and ensuring intercoder reliability could be applied to analyzing the State of the Union address, television drug ads, and a focus group about Super Bowl ads.
Secondary research involves summarizing, collecting, and synthesizing existing data rather than primary data collection methods. It can be as rigorous as primary research and helps clients solve problems. Some disadvantages are that it may not find specific data needed and sources vary in quality. Secondary research was important for James Michener's novel "Texas" and is virtually impossible to conduct effective paid media without syndicated research sources that provide data on audiences.
There are 1.5 million non-profits with an estimated $2.6 trillion in assets. Some are huge operations including the United Way, Red Cross, American Cancer Society and the YMCA. Some lobby. Some compete against non-profits. They all compete against each other for donations. All face compassion fatigue, and many run into PR difficulties ... or worse (see Lance Armstrong and Livestrong). They may not be for profit and for the most part they are well respected, but they still need reputation and brand management in our 24-7-365 digital society.
Brands may be 30 percent of Wall Street value. They need to be enhanced and protected. There are limits to brand management. The Federal Trade Commission regulates false advertising (e.g., Skechers). FedEx has come into contact with the Green Washing line. Ditto for KFC and Pink Washing. Shameless 5-hour ENERGY leaped over the Pink Washing divide. Firms need to guard against false advertising, green washing, pink washing and astroturfing (e.g., social media masquerades).
Manage or Be Managed? That is the question. Intangible brands may be hard to measure, but they equate to 30 percent of total Wall Street values. Some even see them as needing to be listed as "assets" on balance sheets. In this 24/7/365 digital world, what are the best and most effective strategies to protect brand equity. Yep, it is manage or be managed.
The Era of Big Data is upon us. We are attempting to rise above complexity on steroids. We address B2B, B2C, B2G and now B2C2C business segments.

What is the evolving strategy to rise above the noise of our Big Data world?

Presidential press secretaries Jody Powell and Larry Speakes were both confronted with the same difficult choice.
This document discusses the evolution of communications platforms from traditional earned, owned, and paid media to their modern digital forms. It outlines how Moore's law and disruptive technologies like printing, broadcasting, and the internet have transformed the communications landscape. Now, earned media involves extensive digital public relations and social media engagement. Paid media encompasses diverse digital advertising channels. And owned media centers on self-publishing across an organization's website and social media platforms. The document stresses that digital content is permanent and owned media remains important alongside earned and paid strategies.
What are winning digital techniques for segmenting, targeting audiences and getting out the vote? Who are the audiences for our messages? What are the best integrated marketing communication techniques to reach them?
Presentation to the PRSSA chapter at Central Washington University on October 13, 2014. The PowerPoint presents the pros and cons of PR agency life vs. working in a corporate public relations department. The presentation also offers strategies to close the gender pay gap in communications disciplines.
From the Rosetta Stone to the Boston Tea Party to the "Torches of Freedom" to today's digital age, public relations or responsible advocacy (and sometimes not so responsible) have been a part of the human landscape.
What are the ethical obligations and responsibilities for public relations and communications professionals? Let's start with two of PRSA's core values -- Responsible Advocacy and Honesty -- and go from there. And don't forget full disclosure.
This document provides an overview of the public relations field including typical salaries, career paths, tools used, and types of public relations work. It discusses common misconceptions about public relations and outlines how public relations helps manage communication between organizations and their audiences. The document also contrasts corporate versus agency public relations and describes two primary methods of client engagement used in public relations.
The document discusses the growth of social media and its impact on communications and business. Some key points:
- 2 billion people now use the internet globally, and social media engagement continues rising, with over 2/3 of internet users on social platforms.
- Social media has democratized communications, allowing anyone to share content with just a few clicks. It is ubiquitous but not monolithic, with many different platforms and formats.
- Major social media companies like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn have grown enormously, some going public with multibillion-dollar valuations, showing the major impact and business potential of social media.
As I continue my new career as a higher education instructor/student in public relations/communications/investor relations, I have adopted a proposed research agenda. My areas of potential emphasis include social media, international communications and corporate public relations/investor relations
There are more than 5,000 publicly traded companies on the NYSE and the NASDAQ and more being added with each IPO. Everyone of these companies is required to report to the SEC and to tell its story to the investing public. Skilled financial communicators are in high demand. The key question? How does a company make money?
What are effective public relations strategies to avoid Pink Washing, pass the giggle test, and do some good for people while your organization does well? Fiduciary Responsibility and Corporate Social Responsibility are not mutually exclusive.
Are Baby Boomers late adopters or worse yet, laggards, when it comes to technology? That may be the perception, but is that the reality? It seems that Baby Boomers have a PR problem as it applies to competing with younger generations in the coming years.
Germany has undergone a transformation from the Holocaust during World War II to becoming a normalized country. In 1945 after Nazi defeat, Germans faced guilt over the Holocaust. But authors like Thomas Mann expressed hope for a new Germany that was part of Europe rather than dominating it. Since then, Germany rebuilt itself economically and politically despite occupation and division. It acknowledged and repented for its Nazi past. Reunification followed the fall of the Berlin Wall. Germany is now known for economic success, environmentalism, women's empowerment, and high-quality manufactured goods. It has achieved a public relations miracle in overcoming its dark history.
How did Starbucks and NGO Conservation International work together to maintain fiduciary responsibility and achieve corporate social responsibility (CSR). It wasn't easy, but it happened.

10. Based upon my leadership experience in corporate public relations, investor relations and global
communications during my 15-year tenure in Silicon Valley, I made the decision to emphasize
business/financial communications and social media as my research interests at the University of
Oregon School of Journalism and Communication.
The net result of this interest was the preparation of pedagogic research for my M.A. project, the
crafting of a brand new upper-division course, J410 Strategic Business/Financial
Communications. The course curricula calls for students to learn SEC disclosure rules, how to read
income statements and balance sheets, and required that student teams stage a buy side/sell side
financial analyst conferences on behalf of Amazon, Nike, Nordstrom and Starbucks. The University
Academic Committee approved this course and I was privileged to teach it in the winter and spring
terms of the 2012-2013 academic year.
As a graduate teaching fellow, I teamed with co-authors University of Oregon Assistant Professor
Tiffany Derville Gallicano and Ph.D candidate Toby Hopp in researching and preparing, Is Ghost
Blogging Like Speechwriting? A Survey of Practitioners About the Ethics of Ghostblogging social
media research. We received 2012 Jackson-Sharpe Award from the International Public Relations
Research Conference (IPRRC). Our research will soon be published by Public Relations Journal.
11. During the course of my public relations career, I travelled extensively to Japan and
Europe, including several trips to Germany (e.g., Berlin, München, Köln). Two summers
ago, I earned die Zertifikät Deutsch von der Goethe Institut in San Francisco.
My future research emphasis is to examine Germany’s Öffentlichkeitsarbeitswunder (public
relations miracle) in the past 68 years (historical analysis). The country has risen from the
ruins of war and the indelible stain of the Holocaust to become the most popular nation on
Earth, according to the BBC.
How did Germany restore and enhance its brand and reputation?
What were the factors, including the Feminization of the Fatherland, which contributed to
this public relations transformation? The title of my proposed research/book: Germany:
From Holocaust to Normalcy (Deutschland: Von Holocaust zu Normalität).
Presently, I am meeting with distinguished scholars with a particular interest in modern-day
Germany and I am seeking out external sources of funding. I have written on this subject in
my Almost DailyBrett communications choreography blog.

13. The demands of our 24/7/365 attention society require a commitment to life-long learning
by students — regardless of their country of origin — whether they are engaging
professors, teaching assistants or fellow students today or interacting with
superiors, colleagues and subordinates in professional life tomorrow.
In order for students to pursue a life-long dedication to learning and innovation, I strongly
contend the teaching profession cannot continue to employ analog thinking in an
increasingly digital world. Our educational culture must shift-and-undergo robust change
to meet the present-and-future needs of students in an information-overload world.
This digital approach calls for a new way of thinking. Instead of centering our attention on
the bestower of knowledge, wisdom and information, the focus needs to be shifted to the
receiver, the student. How will we engage her? How will stimulate his deep-thinking? How
will we convince the student that life-long learning is the only reliable way to stay relevant
10 years from today, let alone 30 years from now?
14. The surge of students with college degrees, coupled with the pressures associated with the
emergence of literally millions of well-qualified students from other developed and developing
nations (e.g., BRICS/Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), has generated a scenario in
which a well-paying position is not the automatic province of college graduates. Instead, we
must prepare students to effectively and ethically compete. They must be engaged. They must
be committed to deep thinking and to always learning new concepts and ideas.
The analog days of preparing course materials, lecturing for 45-90 minutes (or longer), only
interrupted for a mid-term and a final are over…or should be over. The ―plug-and-chug‖
approach yielding only a grade with the information instilled being rapidly forgotten does not
prepare students for the ever-increasing competition in a rapidly evolving innovation world. I
know this to be true based upon my three-decades of experience in the public and private
sectors, particularly my 15- year tenure in corporate and agency work in Silicon Valley.
To accomplish the goal of fostering life-long learning, I believe the teachers of the 21st Century
must: Adopt a bottom-up, student-to-instructor approach. What are the expectations and
desires of the student and how are they met? Can we shift our attention to the student in her or
his seat instead of the lecturer in the front of the room?
15. Convince students through a mentoring approach that they are learning essential
life skills as opposed to merely gathering facts, figures and concepts to be simply
memorized and discarded after an examination. What are the best ways to write a
cover letter or compose a resume? How do you read a financial statement or a
balance sheet? How can I become fluent in subjects that are near-and dear to
employers?
Prepare students to effectively and fairly compete in a difficult global economy. To
celebrate diversity, I believe course work should emphasize the differences in
regional financial markets and how culture plays a distinct role in decision-making in
these respective geographies (e.g., Geert Hofstede’ s Cultural Dimensions Theory).
We should encourage and invite students from other nations to offer their unique
perspectives for the benefit of all students in the class, but be mindful of differences
in upbringing in collectivist as opposed to individualistic societies.
As a means of shedding an analog way of teaching, we should emerge from
behind the podium, dispense with the speaking notes, strap on the lavaliere
microphone and use PowerPoint or another presentation technology as prompts. Our
goal should be to engage students in a meaningful conversation, not just reading a
lecture.
16. Instill a sense of ethics that advances the career of the individual student but not at the expense
of others. How do we reconcile the competing demands of fiduciary responsibility (doing well) and
social responsibility (doing good) in an increasingly complex world? How can we ensure that we
compete effectively, but fairly?
The ever-increasing complexity of the global economy does not lend itself to just qualitative
answers or quantitative solutions. These methods are not mutually exclusive. Students must be
given the tools to succeed using whichever methodology is most appropriate.
Have faith that telling the story, and telling it well, is a skill that cannot be effectively
outsourced. Promote real confidence in students that they will soon have the necessary verbal-
and-written communication skill sets, and that they will be adept in the use of conventional and
digital communication tools.
The world has reached a new strategic inflection point, particularly in the face of a prolonged
economic downturn, sluggish recovery and the emergence of a new wave of intellectual
competition. The commanding focus on the tenured professor, the associate professor, the
assistant professor, the non-tenured full-time instructor and the graduate teaching fellow has to
change. The asymmetrical few-to-the-many imparting of facts and information does not work in the
same manner of effectiveness in our high-technology society.
17. Instead, we need to embrace a two-way symmetrical approach with educators engaging
in a conversation with students, a discussion that leads to answers for students and
stimulates even more questions. Most importantly, this methodology provides students
with increasing individual abilities and confidence to boldly answer these questions
individually or cooperatively in teams.
The academic institution must shift its approach to teaching from instructor-centric to
student-centric. Its orientation must change as well from being merely a center of higher
academia to appreciating the professional world where lifelong learning will be ever-
present. The deep-learning student will be an engaged student, better prepared for the
task of learning new concepts and ideas even in the face of a ones-and-zeroes binary
code digital society that gets more complex with each passing day.
