, YOU HAVE TO ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS.

QUESTION 1 COMMUNICATION IN THE ORGANISATION

There is a debate among communicators in the field of organisational communication

regarding the role of communication. Some communicators view communication as a tactical

activity in the organisation, manifested in practices such as public relations or advertising,

while other communicators argue that in fact communication has a strategic role in the

organisation.

Taking this scenario into consideration, discuss the following:

1.1 Discuss, with examples, the concept of strategy according to Mintzberg’s (1987) five

Ps. (20)

1.2 While some communication experts argue that communication plays a strategic role in

the organisation, there are those who believe that it does not play any strategic role.

State your view as to whether communication does or does not play a strategic role

in the organisation, providing evidence to support your answer. (10)
