In complex, volatile and sometimes hostile environments, it is necessary for organizations to work professionally with their communication. Increasingly, therefore, organizations consider and handle communication as a strategic management issue. As a consequence, communication tasks increasingly go beyond formal organizational boundaries and involve many different professional disciplines.

The course presents and discusses the practical implications of these changes by drawing on a variety of literatures, including theories of strategy, organization, public relations, marketing and management.

The aim is to make it possible for participants to understand how organizations work with strategic communication in practice, how they seek to communicate more effectively and how different ways of communicating shape an organization and its relationships with the outside world.
