International Relations
Operating Around the Globe :
The actions of individuals and organizations in one part of the world are felt instantly by people around the globe. As a consequence, multinational corporations must be sensitive to how their actions might affect people of different cultures in different geographies.
Multinational companies consider many challenges:
The French riots to protest proposed changes in the employment policies.
The Muslim restaurant owners protests in the street of Bombay to demonstrate against the American Military actions in Afghanistan.
All foreign companies operating internationally must constantly reinforce the notion that they are responsible and concerned residents of local communites. Smart multinationals also support local causes and incorporate international audiences and celebrities in their philanthropic efforts. In order to win friendship and support in other countries, multinational corporations must think “globally and act locally.”
Hopscotching the World for Public Relations
Public relations have become a global phenomenon. Major political shift toward democracy throughout the world, coupled with the rapidity of worldwide communications and the move to form trading alliances of regional nations have focused new attentions on public relations.
Canada: the Canadian public relations are the rival of American practice in terms of its level of acceptance, respect, and maturity. The Canadian public realations society formed in 1948 is very active representing more than 1.600 public relations professionals in 16 member societies throughout the country.
Europe: the emergence of a more unified Europe through the formation of the European Community in 1992 has major implications on the practice of public relations in Europe. The headquarter of the institute of public relations is in London; it is the largest professional organization in Europe.
Latin America: as far as public relations are concerned, the scene is more chaotic then in the United States, Canada, or Europe. This field in most highly developed in Mexico because it started in 1930’s. Mexican coporations all have communication and public relations departments.
Japan: Public relations in Asia have experienced sharp growth. In Japan the practice of public relations is contrary to the nation’s cultural heritage. PR was established after the Second World War and it differs from the one of the west.
China: after a number of false starts, china holds great potential for public relations expansion. China is the fastest growing economy that is the reason why PR will be called to help differentiate these enterprises from the competition. All of these developments suggest that the public relations business in china has only just began and will enjoy a bright future in the 21st century.
Asia: Public relations also have begun to take root. It is important to remember that every Asian country is different, and PR practice differs from the one of the United States. PR in India is largely a subordinate of the marketing function.
Eastern Europe: In the new democracies of Eastern Europe, there are 370 millions consumers that is the reason why PR is largely expanding.
Russia: Although capitalist Russia has suffered fits and starts, the practice of public relations has been steadily developing.
Africa: the practice of PR is growing in many African countries.
Middle East: the practice of PR is very different from the one in the United States, even terrorist groups have adopted Public Relations tools to spew out their messages.
