One main issue found in gender research studies on public relations is the small number of women who hold a leadership role. However, this fact does not only apply to the public relations inudstry, but almost all industries. The purpose of this article is to analyze the prblem within the recruitment process of PR practitioners from the point of view of the senior practitioners. In order to achieve this, focus group discussions were conducted with senior PR practitioners who are members of a PR professional association. Data gatheredwere analyzed from the perspective of feminist theories and The Velvet Ghetto. Based on the discussions, two conclusions were made. First, That the public relations profession is an ‘open profession’, which means that it should be open for, a) men and women, b) all ages, c) all backgrounds and disciplines. Second, that statistically and universally, a) PR education appears to be more attractive to women compared to men, b) overall, there are more female PR practitioners than males, however, c) at the senior, top management positions in large companies, beit national or international, male practitioners are dominant. The researcher concludes that there needs to be an attempt to increase the status of the PR profession in the society, and strive to achieve gender equity in reaching top management. The researcher suggests for colaborations to be held between three parties, namely: Higher education institutions, professional associations, and industries. Such colaborations can be in the form of mentorships between a beginner and a manager; career counselling; and workshops. Companies are also advised to establish policies, e.g. flextime, and offer facilities, e.g., daycares, that would enable women to pursue a career.    Salah satu pokok permasalahan yang ditemukan dalam studi gender humas adalah sedikitnya perempuan yang memegang peran kepemimpinan. Namun, fakta ini tidak semata-mata terjadi di industri humas, melainkan di hampir semua industri.Tujuan dari artikel ini adalah untuk menganalisa permasalahan yang ada pada proses perekrutan praktisi hubungan masyarakat (humas) dalam sudut pandang praktisi senior. Untuk mencapai tujuan ini maka diadakan diskusi kelompok terarah dengan praktisi senior humas yang tergabung dalam sebuah asosiai profesi humas sebagai peserta. Data yang diperoleh dianalisa dari sudut pandang teori feminis dan velvet ghetto. Berdasarkan diskusi tersebut dapat diambil dua kesimpulan. Pertama, Bahwa profesi humas adalah ‘profesi terbuka’, yang berarti, a) baik pria dan perempuan, b) tanpa batasan usia, c) dari latar belakang dan disiplin apapun, tidak hanya komunikasi yang bisa memasuki profesi humas. Kedua, Bahwa secara statistik dan secara universal a) pendidikan humas lebih banyak memikat perempuan daripada laki-laki, b) perempuan praktisi humas jumlahnya melebihi praktisi pria, tetapi c) posisi-posisi senior, pada posisi top pada perusahaan-perusahaan besar, baik itu nasional atau internasional, didominasi oleh praktisi pria. Penulis menyimpulkan bahwa perlu adanya upaya untuk meningkatkan derajat profesi humas di mata masyarakat, dan juga mengupayakan agar adanya keseteraan gender dalam meniti karir humas sampai ke tingkat top management. Penulis mengusulkan adanya kerjasama antara tiga pihak yaitu instansi pendidikan tinggi, asosiasi profesi, dan industri. Kerjasama tersebut dapat berupa mentorship antara praktisi pemula dengan praktisi manager; konseling karir; dan loka karya. Perusahaan juga dihimbau untuk memberlakukan kebijakan yang memudahkan perempuan untuk berkarir, seperti flextime dan pengadaan penitipan anak (daycare).

Mixed approaches are far more compressive than attacking a problem one point of view and allow a different type of data to be accessed from disciplinary boundaries. Employing a purposive sampling method, a total of 7 PR officers of the Tigray region education Bureau and the Public relations Manager of the respective Bureau have been selected. An interview and questionnaires have been employed to gather data. After the researcher has collected the relevant data using the mixed research methods it has been analyzed. The data which was gathered using a quantitative research method has been analyzed and interpreted in a table and report in percentage with sufficient explanation for each table result and percentages using SPSS data analyzing software. Besides, the gathered data using a qualitative research design was analyzed in the reporting method with elaboration.

Just as in the private sector, the public communication activities of state institutions have gained increased weight and significance in our media society. In contrast to the public relations of private institutions, however, the communications of public authorities are subject to severe constitutional restrictions. Promotional activities by state institutions can pose a serious threat to the free process of forming a political opinion in a democratic society. At the same time, public authorities are facing increased demands for transparency and increasing difficulties in gaining acceptance for their decisions, which has been underlined in particular by recent protest movements. Against this background, this thesis, which was supervised at the University of Frankfurt, analyses the informal communications of state institutions and public acceptance of their decisions from a constitutional point of view. It identifies the legal scope within which public institutions are justified in promoting their decisions by means of public communication activities.

Legal axiology, as a scientific discipline, allows us to consider both the legal system of the State as a whole, and its individual elements from the point of view of the value foundations that exist in society and in each individual. The consideration of the elements of the State's legal system through value categories allows us to determine the relationship and interdependence of all elements of the legal system. It is especially necessary to note the influence of value categories on the formation of a system of the separate branches of the law, including the financial law of Russia. Value categories have an influence not only on the formation of the elements of the financial law system, but also predetermine their interaction as legal means of regulation of the public finances. The elements of the financial law system, as a branch of law, are the principles of the financial law, the rules of the financial law, and their separate forms of grouping - institutions and sub-sectors of the financial law. The principles of the financial law are the direct legal regulators of public relations in the field of public finance by their nature. Possessing regulatory properties, the principles of the financial law shouldn’t be identified with the rules of the financial law, since they are independent legal means of the regulation. The principles of the financial law, on the basis of their regulatory properties, should be considered as elements of a system of the financial law.

An audit was performed of syllabi used by schools teaching strategic communication as part of the Public Relations Society of America’s MBA/Business School Program. Interviews were then conducted with 20 respondents composing a purposive nonrandom sample of those who completed a course associated with Public Relations Society of America’s MBA/Business School Program. Researchers interpreted data using qualitative research approaches. Findings show that (a) crisis communication is a common topic in MBA-level strategic communication classes, (b) the inclusion of strategic communication curricula in MBA programs promotes new perspectives regarding the role of the public relations professional, (c) completion of MBA courses in strategic communication may advantageously position students for advancement in marketing and management positions, and (d) MBA students value case studies and interpretative analysis of real-world situations as part of strategic communication curricula.

<p>Occasionally, bridge projects present a challenge to the general public in terms of how they look or feel. This can happen during construction, demolition or even through the working operational lifespan. Concern can understandably arise if a structure looks or feels unstable or unsafe, for any reason. Some bridges seem ‘wrong’ even when they are quite safe.</p><p>The question of safety, and more particularly the perception of safety, are areas where structural engineering, the commercial realities of bridge ownership/operation, human psychology and public relations meet. When a bridge looks or feel unsafe, despite it being quite stable and without danger, the public may deem such a scenario unacceptable, and this can create friction with what is desirable from the point of view of the bridge owner or operator.</p><p>When the above occurs, the interface with the public and clients must be carefully managed. Clear, concise information is vital, communicated in non-jargon language. To persuade the uninitiated that something is safe, despite it looking the opposite, requires skills that bridge professionals sometimes lack. Identifying, understanding, and practicing these skills will sometimes feel counterintuitive to bridge practioners, but they are skills which nonetheless are sometimes essential.</p>

There have been a large number of such events in the world over the past year that cannot be called ordinary. The most difficult of them is the public challenge of spreading the COVID-19 coronavirus. Ukraine is not an exception to the countries affected by the pandemic. Measures to overcome this problem involve the coordinated work both of all government agencies and society. The police, as one of the agencies that directly enforces certain restrictions caused by anti-epidemic measures, and the contact of the population and the authorities on law enforcement activity, must master new ways of carrying out professional activities. The pandemic has complicated all public relations in the country without exception. Forms of realization of law enforcement function did not become an exception. Thus, the powers of the police have expanded to some extent due to the need to respect human rights’ restrictions in the context of combating the spread of the disease. Such functions are necessary, but their availability and necessity are questionable from the point of view of the population. The police have the duty to stop the offenses and prosecute those who violate the law regarding certain restrictions caused by the pandemic. At the same time, the majority of the population does not take seriously the appeals of health care authorities and quarantine requirements. This complicates the difficult relationship between the police and the public, since the latter does not perceive police activity in this case as legal and necessary. This leads to exacerbation of conflicts and contradictions. The constant confrontation between these entities significantly affects the level of security and quality of law enforcement activity. The relevance of the study is explained by the importance of police actions in the context of ensuring the compliance of the population with quarantine restrictions. Besides, a large amount of negative material on the Internet provokes the population to negative perception of police activities. However, it may be successful period for the formation of trust, partnership between the police and the population in regard to the situation where solving the problem (spread of the pandemic) requires the mobilization of both the population and the government. Given the above, the authors of the article have analyzed the key problems of community policing in terms of today’s challenges. The authors have developed propositions to improve the forms, methods and techniques of policing to maintain the appropriate level of public confidence in its activities. The obtained results can be further used in scientific and practical activities. The work can become a basis for further research, ground for the implementation of new forms of activities by practical units. The results of the study should be also taken into account during further rule-making activities.
