Abstract

Background: The Executive Board of RLUGGp Management Agency, officially, is the designated technical organizer for Lombok Rinjani Geopark, established by the Governor of West Nusa Tenggara. However, in reality, it needs more authority to manage the Lombok Rinjani Geopark area. The Executive Board of RLUGGp Management office can only fulfill its functions with jurisdictional control over regional management. Purpose: This research aims to investigate the forms of collaboration among the actors involved in managing Geopark Rinjani Lombok. Methods: It is a qualitative and explorative case study, with data collection through In-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. Results: Stakeholder classification according to geopark management: (1) stakeholders based on their connection to the areas within the delineation of Geopark Rinjani Lombok; (2) stakeholders based on their hierarchical position within the government structure; (3) stakeholders who are part of the internal staffs of Geopark Rinjani Lombok Management Board; and (4) stakeholders supporting the management of Geopark Rinjani Lombok. The voluntary formation of interpersonal connections and the cultivation of trust among stakeholders, who are social actors within a social system, serve as the foundation for collaboration, coordination, and communication. Conclusion: Communities are pivotal in the successful execution of diverse development programs within Rinjani Lombok Geopark. Additionally, the Rinjani Geopark Youth Forum (RGYF) serves as the most substantial additional force in the execution of all programs. Implications: The dissatisfaction of each actor will hinder the achievement of the program objectives. Effective managerial communication should be practiced by a leader with authority and a significant role in the management of Geopark Rinjani Lombok.

Abstract

Background: Public relations and Culture are intertwined. Societal and corporate Culture influences public relations practices. Conversely, the existence of public relations influences organizational cultural practices and societal Culture. Regrettably, the human resource department has a more dominant role in corporate culture practices than the public relations department. It is mainly related to internalizing organizational values, while the public relations department supports the internalization program through internal corporate communication channels. Purpose: This paper examines public relations function in corporate culture practices based on stories and opinions from Indonesian communication practitioners. It focuses on three main research questions, first how and what the impacts of the existence of public relations – corporate communication to the development of corporate Culture; Second, what the functions of public relations are – corporate communication to support the building and changing corporate Culture; and third what factors influence the strategic function of public relations - corporate communication in corporate culture practice. Methods: This study employs qualitative methods through semi-structured interviews with public relations/corporate communication professionals working at different corporations and organizations. Results: Based on thematic analysis, the empirical findings revealed that cascading organizational values is still part of the human resource department’s primary job, while corporate communication is essential to echoing the key message. Determining the appropriate communication channels and corporate language is critical to ease misunderstandings amongst corporate members. Finally, the digital business environment frequently invites hostile situations, and therefore strong leadership and agile organization can preserve business sustainability. Conclusion: The influence of public relations is essential to orchestrate various internal communication channels. The agile organization provides ease of organizational bureaucracy in corporate culture practices. Implications: This initial finding contributes to the field of public relations – corporate communication to provide a balanced perspective from Indonesian practitioners.

Abstract

Background: Climate change has threatened humanity and brought about serious impacts for at least two decades. The terrible threat can be addressed through social media. Purpose: This study examined how Indonesian millennials use social media to discuss and advocate for climate change. Methods: It employed mixed methods to combine climate change data from scholarly sources and strategic communication strategies in social media campaigns. Results: The results indicated a predominant presence of millennials, particularly in the 20-29 age group, using Instagram as the primary platform for climate change discussions. Social media highlighted limited engagement with experts and concerns about misinformation and emphasized the vital role of celebrities and influencers in climate change campaigns on social media. Conclusion: The research suggested that social media platforms like Instagram and WhatsApp facilitate climate change discussions among Indonesian millennials. They enable tailored communication strategies and emphasize the potential for social media campaigns to influence a certain behavior. This research also emphasizes the need for a combined approach involving online and offline channels, better climate change education, and collaboration. Implications: The findings underscore the necessity for Indonesia’s climate change advocacy to integrate offline and online communication strategies that are tailored to individual preferences and enhance millennials’ understanding through targeted education and social media campaigns.

Abstract

Background: Statistics Indonesia (BPS) is one of the government agencies that always engage with the community through, for example, censuses, surveys, and dissemination of statistical data. For that reason, the role of Public Relations at BPS is certainly needed. However, the organizational structure of Public Relations does not exist at BPS provincial and regency/city levels. The role of Public Relations at BPS provincial and regency/city levels is carried out by employees that are appointed based on policies through Public Relations Decree. Purpose: This study aims to examine public speaking skills possessed by the public relations staff of BPS Province and Regency/City of West Java. Methods: This study employed a descriptive quantitative approach. The sample used was a saturated sample of 79 people who were appointed as Public Relations of BPS Province and Regency/City of West Java in 2022. Results: The results showed that as many as 97.46 percent of Public Relations of BPS Province and Regency/City of West Java did not earn a degree from public relations background and only 37.97 percent had attended a Public Relations training. However, the public speaking skills of public relations staff of BPS Province and Regency/City of West Java were reported as “Good” category, both in general and in terms of gender, age, and education.
