Academic Narratives: What's The Story?, John Countryman

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

In fact, narrative is the principal agency whereby individuals, institutions and societies are constituted in the first place. Organizational narratives are as prevalent in academic settings as elsewhere. One such narrative is the sort that embraces the organization's life-story.

Looking Beyond The Immediate Crisis Response: Analyzing The Organizational Culture To Understand The Crisis, Curt Bechler Jan 1995

Looking Beyond The Immediate Crisis Response: Analyzing The Organizational Culture To Understand The Crisis, Curt Bechler

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article analyzes the organizational culture at Olivet College in Michigan. The organizational response has been the subject of the most of the discussion on organizational exigencies. Perhaps most telling is the focus on organizational planning and preparation. Crisis planning allows individuals within the organization to change their view of the factors that constitute a crisis, since planning often reduces the severity of the event by lowering the uncertainties of how to respond. Communication is central to the resolution of a crisis situation. In fact, some would argue that organizations should focus on crisis communication instead of crisis management.

Looking Ahead: Video Courses In Business And Management Communication, Elizabeth M. Lynn

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

The article discusses the growing economic pressures to develop audio-visual materials for teaching business communication to college students and looks at the major obstacles in creating telecourses in the U.S. Due to the aging U.S. population and increasing cost of college education, U.S. schools resort to distance learning to attract older students and maintain the cost of education.
