This article discusses the communication practices implemented by Prophet Muhammad (SAW), focusing on the media and methods used in spreading the message of Islam. Through an analysis of historical context, the article illustrates how the Prophet optimized various communication channels, including oral communication, letters, and direct interaction, to reach diverse communities. Additionally, the study highlights the relevance of the Prophet's communication principles in the modern context, where information technology and social media have become primary tools for disseminating information.

Abstract

The study aims to identify the role of therapeutic communication techniques in shaping a corporate culture that supports work stress management through a systematic literature review. As emphasized by Schein (2021), an effective organizational culture is built through communication patterns that are consistent with the company's core values. The study findings revealed that the implementation of therapeutic communication techniques - which include an empathetic approach, active listening, and supportive responses - in corporate culture can significantly reduce symptoms of work stress, including anxiety and burnout (Workplace Mental Health Institute, 2023). Organizations with an open communication culture that adopt therapeutic communication principles tend to have higher levels of employee resilience at PT. Astra (Gallup, 2022). As stated by Miller and Chen (2022), the integration of therapeutic communication techniques into daily management practices not only improves employee psychological well-being but also contributes to increased overall organizational productivity. This study provides several practical implications, including: (1) the importance of integrating therapeutic communication principles into internal communication policies, (2) the need for management training that focuses on developing empathetic communication skills, and (3) the design of employee well-being programs based on a therapeutic communication approach. This finding reinforces SHRM's (2022) view of the crucial role of communication culture in creating a healthy and productive work environment.

Abstract

In todayÔÇÖs globalized society, working environment has become diverse and organizations face both, opportunities and challenges based on the cultural differences of their workforce. The U.S. is one of many countries experiencing expansion in workplace diversity. In 2019, a majority of new hires in the U.S. were people of color between the ages 25 to 54 (Long & Damn, 2021). The report shows that the Latin population may constitute 20% of AmericaÔÇÖs workforce by the year 2028 (Long & Damn, 2021). Also, Blacks and Asians constituted 19% of the total labor force of the U.S. in 2020 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2021).┬á This workforce diversity increases our attention to the cultural differences experienced in workplace settings and its impact organizational communication and performance. Employees experience many cultural challenges, and without proper cross-cultural adjustment, their level of work stress may increase (Chen, 2019). Also, cultural diversity can lead to intercultural conflicts in the workplace. Scholars defined intercultural conflict as ÔÇ£different expectations concerning appropriate or inappropriate conflict behavior in a conflict sceneÔÇØ (Ting-Toomey & Oetzel, 2001, p. 1). Organizations try to manage those conflicts through effective communication and cultural trainings (Shahid, 2022). The purpose of this study is to unearth causes of workplace conflicts through in-depth interviews of employees across culturally diverse organizations in the United States, and to identify ways to reduce these cultural gaps and increase intercultural understanding among employees. Findings of this study will bridge existing gaps in literature and help organizations prepare and implement a course of action that builds a harmonious and collaborative workplace culture

Abstract

Every day journalists are required to be able to find and make news. With these demands, journalists are encouraged to be able to fulfill them in various ways in accordance with the rules and regulations. This paper shows the strategies of Tras.id journalists in finding news in the Bengkulu Region. Purposive sampling, an informant interview technique, was used in this qualitative research. Planning, production, and editing are the three main focuses of this research. This study uses data collection methods with observation, interviews, and documentation to collect information from six people, namely the public, editor-in-chief, editors, and journalists. Starting with daily editorial meetings and the availability of supporting equipment such as cars, cell phones, agendas/notebooks, and press cards, this research resulted in a news search strategy. The study's recommendations focus on two areas: the lack of case studies or specific topics on the news published by Tras.id media and the need to initiate some major investigations into the escalation of political issues. The next advice that needs to be given is to pay close attention to each sentence on the news page before it is published.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the values of Religious Moderation in the historical trajectory of the Indonesian Nation. The beginning of the establishment of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia began when the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence was read on August 17, 1945. Indonesia has an archipelago spread with a variety of customs, cultures, tribes, and beliefs.  This diversity coexists peacefully, but lately, the Indonesian nation has experienced a crisis of heterogeneity. This is evidenced by several cases of intolerance, extremism, destruction of houses of worship and so on. Ideally, the predecessors of the Indonesian nation upheld the values of religious moderation which are now fading. The urgency of this research is to form an ideal understanding of religious moderation through historical values. This research uses qualitative methods with a history-based phenomenological approach. The primary data sources in this study are historical evidence, while the secondary data used are books, articles and reports that support the research. Data will be analyzed using Triangulation, Member Checking, and Conclusion Drawing techniques. The results showed that in terms of history the Indonesian nation has upheld the values of tolerance, harmony, and non-violence. This can be seen from the adoption of the Sutasoma book which became the basic foundation of the state and Pancasila as a moral instruction that contains philosophical values. Local wisdom in society has the value of religious moderation. The government in this case has made efforts through, training on strengthening Religious Moderation for the community, interfaith dialogue, the role of mass media, and government supp

Abstract

The phenomenon of credit default in the banking sector is concerning in the post-pandemic era, particularly for small-scale financial institutions, such as Rural Credit Banks (BPR). This study analyses the communication strategies used by collectors at Rural Credit Bank (BPR) "X" Bandung to reduce the number of loan arrears. Loan arrears at BPR, caused by factors such as inadequate surveys, debtor dishonesty, or deteriorating financial conditions, pose significant challenges to the bank's financial stability. The purpose of this study is to identify and describe the types and effectiveness of collector strategies, using qualitative methods such as in-depth interviews and observations. Data analysis follows the interactive model by Miles and Huberman. The study reveals that collectors employ a combination of verbal and nonverbal communication strategies, including gentle persuasion and open-ended questions, as well as a calm tone of voice and active listening, all of which are tailored to the debt collection process. These strategies are generally effective, especially the empathetic approach; however, their effectiveness depends on the debtor's characteristics and financial situation. Supporting factors include ongoing training and good internal communication, while barriers include bad intentions from debtors and negative public perceptions. The results of this study concluded that effective communication is crucial in managing problematic loans, and encourage BPR to enhance training, develop ethical guidelines, and promote financial literacy among debtors.

Abstract

BNPB podcasts still face challenges in attracting the interest of the wider community, such as the low number of enthusiasts in BNPB podcasts resulting in a lack of public awareness of environmental issues. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of disaster mitigation messages delivered through the BNPB podcast and identify the obstacles faced by BNPB in disaster mitigation counseling through the BNPB Podcast. This research uses a qualitative method with content analysis based on Everett Rogers' innovation diffusion theory, which includes innovation, social system, information dissemination, and timeframe. The data analyzed is podcast content from the BNPB_Indonesia YouTube account throughout. The aim was to identify the types, messages conveyed and BNPB's communication strategy. Public participation was evaluated through observational data, such as the number of likes and comments. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that BNPB podcasts include innovating mitigation messages, strengthening social systems, disseminating information, community response, follow-up to BNPB podcasts and obstacles faced in these podcasts. BNPB through the podcast innovated disaster preparedness and handling messages, and introduced Inarisk web technology to support it. Despite the potential for wide reach, the podcast content lacks audience interest, resulting in a minimal number of listeners. to be more effective, BNPB needs to strengthen promotion and interaction with listeners.
