(2005). “Perspectieven op communicatie management
Key concepts
H1
Corporate communication: “Managementfunctie die communicatie coördineert waardoor
verschillende groepen binnen organisatie kunnen communiceren terwijl een uniform beeld
wordt gegeven en een positieve relatie in stand wordt gehouden”
Market
Corporate identity: The basic profile that an organization wants to project to all its important
stakeholder groups and how it aims to be known by these various groups in terms of its
corporate image and reputation.
Mission: Kan worden opgemaakt uit een organisatie door wat de organisatie doet of
communiceert, is dus niet precies opgeschreven.
Corporate image/ Corporate reputation: Collectieve evaluatie (merendeel mensen deelt deze
mening) van een organisatie
Stakeholder engagement: het betrekken van stakeholders bij de organisatie
- Transparency
- Integration
- Authenticity vision
- Advocacy
H4
Corporate social responsibility: Verantwoordelijkheid die organisatie heeft naar
sociale/ecologische omgeving
Neo-classical economic theory: The neo-classical economic theory suggests that the purpose
of organizations is to make profits in their accountability to themselves and to shareholders,
and that only by doing so can business contribute to wealth for itself as well as society at
large
Input-outputmodel:
Socio-economic theory: The socio-economic theory suggests, in contrast, that the question of
‘who counts’ extends to other groups besides shareholders who are considered to be
important for the continuity of the organization and the welfare of society

, Stakeholder model:
Economic/market stake: Economic or market stakes are held by those who have an economic
interest, but not an ownership interest, in the organization, such as employees, customers,
suppliers and competitors.
Equity stakes: Equity stakes, in Freeman’s terminology, are held by those who have some
direct ‘ownership’ of the organization, such as shareholders, directors or minority interest
owners.
Influencer stake: Influencer stakes are held by those who do not have either an ownership or
economic interest in the actions of the organization, but who have interests as consumer
advocates, environmental groups, trade organizations and government agencies.
Stakeholder: elke groep/individu die invloed heeft op / beïnvloed wordt door gedrag
organisatie
Stakeholder engagement:
o Tweewegscommunicatie (symmetrisch)
o Groep actoren samen
o Focus op bouwen relaties met stakeholders
o Relationele benadering
Stakeholder management:
o Top-down (asymmetrisch)
o Organisatie centraal
o Managen stakeholders uit belang organisatie
o Informatieve + persuasieve benadering
Stakeholder salience legitimacy
Power-interest matrix

,Dialogue strategy: both parties (organizations and stakeholders) mutually engage in an
exchange of ideas and opinions. a dialogue strategy involves the active consultation of
stakeholders and, at times, even the incorporation of important stakeholders into the
organization’s decision-making. It involves working towards a process of mutual
understanding and mutual decisions rather than strategic self-interest on the part of the
organization.
Persuasive strategy: an organization, through campaigns, meetings and discussions with
stakeholders, tries to change and tune the knowledge, attitude and behaviour of stakeholders
in a way that is favourable to the organization. Corporate advertising and educational
campaigns, for example, are often used to create a favourable image for the organization and
to ‘sell’ a particular kind of understanding of the organization’s decisions, its corporate
values and its products and services
Informational strategy: a strategy of informing someone about something. Press releases,
newsletters and reports on a company website are often simply meant to make information
available about the organization to its stakeholders. Such a strategy may create awareness of
organizational decisions and may also contribute to a degree of understanding of the reasons
for these decisions.
