Abstract

The growing digital era, the role of influencer marketing has become one of the most effective marketing strategies and one of the important aspects in influencer marketing is the involvement of Global Ambassadors and Brand Ambassadors. This study aims to explore the implementation of the role of Global Ambassadors and Brand Ambassadors for Young People in Indonesia and Malaysia. The research methodology was carried out through the first stage, namely observation, development and use of the theory of global ambassadors and brand ambassadors ranging from providing testimonials, providing encouragement and reinforcement (Endorsement), acting as actors in the advertising topics they represent. The second stage is to test the theory through interviews to get feedback, visual representations, and problem-solving creativity that can identify opportunities that exist and be applied in business. The results of this study show that Global ambassadors play a major role for Indonesian and Malaysian youth, especially in shaping their lifestyle image and identity, encouraging consumption of international products, and shaping global trends. However, young people retain local cultural values that influence their perception of products and brands.

Abstract

Interpersonal communication is a crucial element in students' lives; however, some students still face challenges in communicating effectively within the campus environment. The growing discussion of avoidant behaviour among young people, high levels of social anxiety, and low levels of self-disclosure indicate the existence of issues in students' interpersonal interactions. This research aims to identify the characteristics of avoidant behaviour among students, analyse the effectiveness of communication among students, and identify the factors contributing to the development of such behaviour in an academic context. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with students selected through purposive sampling as informants. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analysed using thematic analysis with reference to Communication Effectiveness Theory. The results indicate that students with avoidant tendencies tend to avoid conflict, limit the intensity of communication, maintain emotional distance, and communicate only when necessary. Communication effectiveness is not yet fully optimised, as miscommunication, limited feedback, and barriers to self-disclosure are still observed; thus, avoidant behaviour is strongly linked to the dynamics of interpersonal communication effectiveness among students in the campus environment.
