Requisite(s): 50106 Media, Information and Society OR 50227 Media, Information and Society OR 50480 Conceptual Frameworks for Public Communication
Disciplinary Strand – Communication and Information Studies – 300 level

This subject builds on previous study of conceptual frameworks in public communication and introduces both historical and emerging theoretical constructs of organising. It presents a critical analysis of these constructs and their relationship with communication within organisations. Students examine the nature of strategic communication interventions in and around globalisation and technology within local, national and transcultural organisational contexts. They evaluate notions of communicative relationships, and the concept of communication as a structuring principle. Students investigate organisational complexity, culture, climate, structures and change management. Critical assessment of organisational practices are applied to issues around transformational leadership.
