CEO activism is rising in popularity around the world due to growing social injustices, the inability of governments to address key concerns of their constituents (e.g., global warming, health, and safety), and abuses of power. Many people are simply fed up with the current state of affairs and want to see people in power held accountable. As a result, CEOs are taking public stances on timely issues. They are doing so not only because they want to win favor with their employees and customers but also because they feel an obligation—and pressure—to speak up and pursue greater good on behalf of others since they have platforms and visibility that are not shared by those whose lack similar status or vehicles to for their voices to be heard. This is a qualitative study that involved in-depth interviews with 24 CEO activists. Data analysis followed the hermeneutic phenomenological approach. The findings advance the CEO activism literature by focusing on the tactical repertoire of activist CEOs within the non-Western context of Ghana. Activist CEOs in Ghana use a broader portfolio of tactics than previously thought, offer a typology of CEO activism tactics, and help to internationalize CEO activism research. This study also expands upon nascent research streams such as responsible management, Africapitalism, Afrocentric philosophies of sustainability, and public relations for social responsibility.

由于社会不公现象日益严重、政府无力解决选民的主要关切(如全球变暖、健康和安全)以及滥用权力,首席执行官行动主义在世界各地日益流行。许多人已经厌倦了当前的状况,希望看到掌权者承担责任。因此,首席执行官们开始就一些适时的问题公开表态。他们之所以这样做,不仅是因为他们想赢得员工和客户的青睐,还因为他们感到有义务--也有压力--代表他人大声疾呼,追求更大的利益,因为他们所拥有的平台和知名度是那些缺乏类似地位或渠道的人所不具备的。这是一项定性研究,对 24 名 CEO 活动家进行了深入访谈。数据分析采用诠释现象学方法。研究结果侧重于加纳非西方背景下激进的首席执行官们的战术手段,从而推动了首席执行官激进主义文献的发展。加纳的激进 CEO 使用的战术组合比以前想象的要广泛,提供了 CEO 激进主义战术的类型学,有助于 CEO 激进主义研究的国际化。这项研究还拓展了一些新的研究流派,如责任管理、非洲资本主义、非洲中心可持续发展哲学和社会责任公共关系。

Organizational crises have often been examined from the perspective of the crisis origin organization. Depending on the crisis type, other organizations might experience impacts because of the initial crisis. This emerging type of crisis—the crisis spillover—one that affects organizations along with the crisis origin organization, is under researched. The current research refines the “crisis spillover” concept and proposes a new perspective for this challenging crisis communication phenomenon by arguing in favor of a relationship between the crisis spillover and sticky crises, developing a conceptual framework, mapping out multi-layer characteristics of crisis spillover and delineating new directions for advancing research and practice for managing industry-wide complex crisis challenges. The framework, further refined based on feedback and evaluation from an expert panel composed of crisis communication executives, provides unique insights into the crisis spillover.

组织危机通常是从危机起源组织的角度进行研究的。根据危机类型的不同,其他组织可能会因为最初的危机而受到影响。这种新出现的危机类型--危机溢出--与危机起源组织一起影响组织,目前还没有得到充分研究。当前的研究完善了 "危机外溢 "的概念,并通过论证危机外溢与粘性危机之间的关系、制定概念框架、描绘危机外溢的多层次特征,以及为推进管理全行业复杂危机挑战的研究和实践指明新的方向,为这一具有挑战性的危机传播现象提出了新的视角。该框架在由危机传播高管组成的专家小组的反馈和评估基础上进一步完善,为危机外溢提供了独特的见解。

This article presents the findings of empirical research on the experiences of senior National Health Service communication practitioners in England during the Covid-19 pandemic, viewed through the prism of their emotional responses. Using narrative interviews with 15 senior communicators, the study discovered that contextual factors elicited the strongest emotional reactions, rather than dealing with the health crisis itself. Five common contextual factors were identified: ‘command and control’, working from home, social media, technology, and professional recognition. Linked to these factors were a range of emotions which can be clustered into eight main categories: stress and anxiety, guilt, frustration and anger, inadequacy, isolation, pride, excitement and a growing sense of confidence. The findings lead to a conclusion that internal contextual factors rather than the challenges posed by the progress of the disease itself determined the most significant elements of the experience of these practitioners. The study also identified the sources of personal support for communicators and their own recommendations for policy changes. The study concludes that health communicators were hindered by the environment in which they undertook their duties. Necessary policy changes will assist in ensuring this professional group can perform more optimally during major health crises in the future.

本文介绍了英国国家卫生服务机构高级传播从业人员在 Covid-19 大流行期间的经验研究结果,并从他们的情绪反应角度进行了分析。通过对 15 名高级传播人员进行叙事性访谈,研究发现环境因素引起的情绪反应最强烈,而不是应对健康危机本身。研究发现了五个常见的背景因素:指挥与控制"、在家工作、社交媒体、技术和职业认可。与这些因素相关的一系列情绪可归纳为八大类:压力和焦虑、内疚、沮丧和愤怒、不足、孤独、自豪、兴奋和不断增强的自信感。研究结果得出的结论是,决定这些从业人员经历的最重要因素的是内部环境因素,而不是疾病进展本身带来的挑战。研究还确定了传播者个人支持的来源以及他们自己对政策变革的建议。研究得出结论,健康传播者在履行职责时受到了环境的阻碍。必要的政策变革将有助于确保这一专业群体在未来的重大卫生危机中能够更加出色地履行职责。

Moving beyond the sector: The spillover effects of an NPO’s crisis on the same and different sectors 超越部门:非营利组织危机对同一部门和不同部门的溢出效应

This study delves into the critical yet underexplored phenomenon of crisis spillover within the non-profit organization (NPO) sector. By investigating whether a crisis in one NPO affects others in both similar and differing sectors, this research sheds light on the far-reaching implications of negative expectancy violations in the wake of a crisis. Utilizing a single-factor (crisis type: no-crisis vs. low vs. high attribution of crisis responsibility) between-subject design experiment, the study unveils novel insights into how public trust and attitude are disrupted not just for the crisis-stricken NPO, but also for other NPOs across various sectors. The findings reveal a pervasive impact of a crisis, leading to diminished trust and unfavorable attitudes towards NPOs beyond the immediate crisis context. Interestingly, these spillover effects remain consistent regardless of the level of attributed responsibility for the crisis. This study not only highlights the interconnectedness and vulnerability of NPOs in crisis situations but also provides a crucial understanding of the broader sector-wide impacts, emphasizing the need for strategic crisis management across the NPO sector.

本研究深入探讨了非营利组织(NPO)中危机外溢这一至关重要但却未得到充分探索的现象。通过调查一个非营利组织的危机是否会影响到类似和不同行业的其他非营利组织,本研究揭示了危机发生后负期望违规行为的深远影响。本研究采用单因素(危机类型:无危机 vs. 危机责任归因低 vs. 危机责任归因高)主体间设计实验,揭示了公众信任和态度是如何受到破坏的,这不仅关系到受危机影响的非营利组织,也关系到各行各业的其他非营利组织。研究结果表明,危机的影响无处不在,导致对非营利组织的信任度降低和对其的不利态度超越了直接的危机背景。有趣的是,无论危机的责任归属如何,这些溢出效应都是一致的。这项研究不仅强调了非营利组织在危机情况下的相互关联性和脆弱性,还提供了对更广泛的全行业影响的重要理解,强调了对整个非营利组织部门进行战略性危机管理的必要性。

Public relations scholarship frequently studies relations between organizations and publics but rarely considers how the nature of organizations influences this interaction. In this essay, we review conceptions of the organization in several areas of public relations scholarship and find complexity that is unexplained by theory, causing a disconnect between public relations scholarship and practice. Using insights from stakeholder theory, essential contract theory, and intersectionality, we provide a new definition of the organization and 14 propositions about the nature of organizations. This definition is explained with a metaphor of an organization as a tent. The tent is composed of many stakeholders, each with multiple identities, utilizing contracts as poles to push and pull the organization in their preferred direction. An illustrative example is given of how this metaphor operates in a university. We call for a reorientation of public relations theory's relationships to organizations and suggest an important role for public relations and communication in constituting the nature of organizations and ensuring representativeness in decision-making.

公共关系学术经常研究组织和公众之间的关系,却很少考虑组织的性质如何影响这种互动。在这篇文章中,我们回顾了几个公共关系学术领域对组织的概念,发现了理论无法解释的复杂 性,造成了公共关系学术和实践的脱节。利用利益相关者理论,基本契约理论和交叉性理论的观点,我们提供了一个新的组织定义和 14 个关于组织本质的命题。我们将组织比喻为一个帐篷。帐篷由许多利益相关者组成,每个利益相关者都有多重身份,他们利用契约作为杆子,将组织推向或拉向自己喜欢的方向。我们举例说明了这一比喻在大学中的应用。我们呼吁重新定位公共关系理论与组织的关系,并建议公共关系和传播在组织性质的构成和确保 决策代表性方面发挥重要作用。

In this paper, we present a digital tool named Diversity Perspectives in Social Media (DivPSM) which conducts automated content analysis of strategic diversity communication in organizational social media posts, using supervised machine-learning. DivPSM is trained to identify whether a post makes mention of diversity or a diversity-related issue, and to subsequently code for the presence of three diversity dimensions (cultural/ethnic/racial, gender, and LHGBTQ+ diversity) and three diversity perspectives (the moral, market, and innovation perspectives). In Study 1, we describe the training and validation of the instrument, and examine how it performs compared to human coders. Our findings confirm that DivPSM is sufficiently reliable for use in future research. In study 2, we illustrate the type of data that DivPSM generates, by analyzing the prevalence of strategic diversity communication in social media posts (n = 84,561) of large organizations in the Netherlands. Our results show that in this context gender diversity is most prevalent, followed by LHGBTQ+ and cultural/ethnic/racial diversity. Furthermore, gender diversity is often associated with the innovation perspective, whereas LHGBTQ+ diversity is more often associated with the moral perspective. Cultural/ethnic/racial diversity does not show strong associations with any of the perspectives. Theoretical implications and directions for future research are discussed at the end of the paper.

在本文中,我们介绍了一种名为 "社交媒体中的多样性视角"(DivPSM)的数字工具,该工具利用监督机器学习对组织社交媒体帖子中的战略性多样性交流进行自动内容分析。通过对 DivPSM 的训练,可以识别帖子中是否提到了多样性或与多样性相关的问题,然后对三个多样性维度(文化/民族/种族、性别和 LHGBTQ+ 多样性)和三种多样性视角(道德、市场和创新视角)的存在进行编码。在研究 1 中,我们介绍了该工具的培训和验证情况,并考察了它与人工编码员相比的表现。我们的研究结果证实,DivPSM 具有足够的可靠性,可用于未来的研究。在研究 2 中,我们通过分析荷兰大型组织的社交媒体帖子(n = 84,561)中战略多样性交流的普遍性,说明了 DivPSM 生成的数据类型。我们的结果表明,在这种情况下,性别多样性最为普遍,其次是 LHGBTQ+ 和文化/民族/种族多样性。此外,性别多样性通常与创新视角相关,而 LHGBTQ+ 多样性则更多地与道德视角相关。文化/民族/种族多样性与任何一种视角都没有很强的关联。本文最后讨论了理论意义和未来研究方向。

Through one pilot test and two main studies using experimental design, this research examines publics’ responses to the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in corporate ability (CA) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices. Results from Study 1 (N = 113) revealed that the application of AI in CSR practices generated greater word-of-mouth intention and purchase intention than that in CA practices, and perceived warmth of the company mediated this effect. Results from Study 2 (N = 122) replicated the results from Study 1, and further revealed the boundary conditions created by publics’ varying levels of uneasiness with robots. The more positive outcomes generated by the application of AI in CSR (vs. CA) practices were more pronounced among those with high levels of uneasiness with robots, but such an effect was not significant among those with low levels of uneasiness with robots. Findings were discussed based on interdisciplinary theoretical insights from the CA-CSR typology, HAII-TIME model, and Stereotype Content Model. Implications for public relations scholarship and practices were discussed.

本研究采用实验设计,通过一项试点测试和两项主要研究,考察了公众对人工智能(AI)在企业能力(CA)和企业社会责任(CSR)实践中的应用的反应。研究1(样本数=113)的结果显示,与企业能力(CA)实践相比,人工智能在企业社会责任(CSR)实践中的应用产生了更大的口碑传播意向和购买意向,而企业的感知温暖度在这一效应中起到了中介作用。研究 2(N = 122)的结果重复了研究 1 的结果,并进一步揭示了公众对机器人不同程度的不安所造成的边界条件。在企业社会责任(与CA相比)实践中应用人工智能所产生的积极结果,在对机器人感到高度不安的人群中更为明显,但在对机器人感到低度不安的人群中,这种效应并不显著。研究结果基于 CA-CSR 类型学、HAII-TIME 模型和刻板印象内容模型的跨学科理论进行了讨论。讨论了对公共关系学术和实践的影响。

This study explores an area that has not been widely researched in the Latin American and Caribbean region: the identification of a capability gap in relation to key strategic public relations and communication management issues and activities. To this end, this article presents findings and analysis from a survey conducted in 20 Latin American and Caribbean countries in 2020. The existence of a capability gap in relation to key issues and activities in public relations and communication management is confirmed, which represents a challenge for the development of the public relations field as well as for higher education institutions across the region.

This study investigates how people participate in activism against Asian hate crimes (i.e., Asian Lives Matter (ALM)). In contrast to numerous studies that use Situational Theory of Problem Solving (STOPS) to predict information behaviors, this study introduced and examined a streamlined model focused on predicting activism behaviors. Moreover, this study tests the Problem Chain Recognition (PCR) effect by exploring how situational motivation in problem solving related to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement affects individuals’ perceptions and communicative acquisition about the issue of anti-Asian hate crimes. Further, this study examines the differences among three American socialized racial groups in terms of problem recognition, constraint recognition, involvement recognition of activism against Asian hate crimes, and activism behaviors. The results of this study revealed that situational motivation in problem solving and referent criterion lead to activism against anti-Asian hate crime. In addition, this study found positive PCR effects between BLM and ALM. This represents a pioneering utilization of the PCR effect to the field of racial activism. Importantly, there were significant differences to perceive activism for anti-Asian hate crimes among three racial group (Blacks, Whites, and Asians). Therefore, the results of this study contribute to the theoretical building of STOPS and practical implications for understanding the complexity of the American socialized racial discourse and predicting racial activism in relation to BLM and ALM.

本研究调查了人们如何参与反对亚裔仇恨犯罪的行动主义(即 "亚裔生命重要"(ALM))。与众多使用情境问题解决理论(STOPS)来预测信息行为的研究不同,本研究引入并检验了一个简化模型,该模型重点预测激进主义行为。此外,本研究还通过探讨与黑人生命至上(BLM)运动相关的问题解决中的情境动机如何影响个人对反亚裔仇恨犯罪问题的认知和交流获取,检验了问题链识别(PCR)效应。此外,本研究还考察了三个美国社会化种族群体在问题认知、约束认知、对反亚裔仇恨犯罪行动主义的参与认知以及行动主义行为方面的差异。研究结果显示,问题解决中的情境动机和参照标准导致了反对反亚裔仇恨犯罪的行动主义。此外,本研究还发现了 BLM 和 ALM 之间的正 PCR 效应。这标志着 PCR 效应在种族行动主义领域的首次应用。重要的是,三个种族群体(黑人、白人和亚裔)对反亚裔仇恨犯罪的积极性认知存在显著差异。因此,本研究的结果有助于建立 STOPS 的理论体系,并对理解美国社会化种族话语的复杂性和预测与 BLM 和 ALM 相关的种族行动主义具有实际意义。

The Hispanic or Latina/o community is an important and growing part of the economy, culture, and politics of the United States. As such, public relations professionals need to be knowledgeable about and responsive to the needs of Hispanic or Latina/o publics. Despite a growing emphasis on diversity and inclusion in the field of public relations, research on Hispanic public relations (HPR) remains largely unexplored. To address this gap, the present study conducted a Delphi panel with 17 experts in HPR in the U.S. The panel used a multi-iteration and consensus-building approach to evaluate different aspects of HPR, including the state of the profession, the competencies required to practice HPR effectively, the value of incorporating HPR courses into academic curricula, and strategies for recruiting and retaining HPR students. The findings of this study provide valuable insights for public relations scholars, educators, and industry leaders. By examining the current state of HPR and identifying key issues and challenges, this study contributes to a better understanding of the profession and its potential for growth and development. By highlighting the importance of HPR education and training, this study also offers practical guidance for those interested in advancing the field of HPR.

西班牙裔或拉丁/裔社区是美国经济、文化和政治的一个重要组成部分,并且在不断增长。因此,公共关系职业人需要了解并满足拉美裔公众的需求。尽管公共关系领域越来越重视多样性和包容性,但关于拉美裔公共关系(HPR)的研究在很大 程度上仍然是空白。为了解决这个问题,本研究与美国 17 位 HPR 专家进行了 Delphi 小组讨论。小组使用了多迭代和建立共识的方法来评估 HPR 的不同方面,包括职业现状,有效实践 HPR 所需的能力,将 HPR 课程纳入学术课程的价值,以及招募和留住 HPR 学生的策略。这项研究的发现为公共关系学者,教育者和行业领导者提供了有价值的见解。通过考察 HPR 的现状,发现关键问题和挑战,这项研究有助于更好地理解这个职业及其成长和发展 的潜力。通过强调 HPR 教育和培训的重要性,本研究也为那些有志于推动 HPR 领域发展的人提供了实用的指导。
