Public Relations (PR) which is now metamorphosed into the term "Corporate Communication (CorCom)" is an important field for the company. Activities undertaken by Public Relations are building images. From the perspective of the organization, information or messages conveyed by PR are expected to have a positive meaning to maintain and even enhance the company's reputation. However, companies are not always surrounded by only positive information, sometimes even alternating with negative information. Unclear information or "issues" can disrupt the operation of the company. Issues that will continually turn into "crisis" companies. PR as the spearhead of the company is expected to be able to handle this. This paper, entitled "The Role of Public Relations in Overcoming Crisis", discusses the role of the PT Krakatau Steel (PTKS) Corporate Communication Division when hit by a corporate crisis. The research approach is qualitativeand as a knife of analysis in this research is the Attribution Theory, which is used to dissect problems of organizational behavior, for example the phenomenon when the organization is in a crisis situation. Research methods, case studieswith the postpositivist paradigm. Data collection techniques through observation,interviews, and literaturerelevant to the discussion. The findings show that when PTKS was hit by a crisis related to the corruption case of one of the officials in his environment, the issue of corporate restructuring, the issue of layoffs of 1300 employees in the mass media and employee demo news in local and national media, at that time information "milling" in various media, both print media and social media that tend to corner the company. Strategic steps taken by the Corporate Communication Division in overcoming corporate crises, namely Pre-Crisis, Crisis, and Post-Crisis. These steps are implemented very carefully, responsive, fast, and right on target.    Public Relations(PR)  yang kini bermetamorfosa menjadi  istilah “Corporate Communication(Cor.Com)” merupakan bidang yang penting bagi perusahaan.

Employee advocacy has become a buzzword that has captured the interest of organizations. Despite the increased attention, employee advocacy is an understudied topic in the public relations literature. Hence, the purpose of this study was to fill a gap in public relations research on employee advocacy by examining internal communicators’ thoughts on how they can influence this type of behavior. Through interviews with 25 practitioners, the results indicated that the drivers of employee advocacy could be divided into three factors: individual (i.e., emotions, job attitudes, person-organization, fit, personality, and instrumental value), group (i.e., leader-member relationship and group cohesion), and organizational (i.e., organizational culture, top management, communication management, and socialization). Additionally, internal communication can influence employee advocacy through corporate communication strategies (i.e., openness and transparency, positivity, legitimacy and empowerment, and recognition) and employee advocacy management factors (i.e., understand business objectives, policies and guidelines, facilitation, interesting and meaningful content, and collaboration).

This paper deals with a stakeholder-focused perception of stakeholder engagement and the question of how much media and corporate communication influence people to get engaged with environmental issues and resources and the water issue in particular. With five case studies at a European, national, regional and local level it is shown that only a high degree of problematization of an issue (here: flooding or water scarcity and droughts) leads to participation as well as engagement which – much more than participation or activism – depends on the existence of organizational structures. Study findings conclude that stakeholder engagement equals a highly complex, autonomous and individual process that requires qualitative research methods. Organizations, political institutions as well as corporations have to acknowledge that stake - holders get engaged “themselves”, whereas the problematization of issues can foster engagement. Implications also refer to the field of Public Relations, where highly individual and customized communication strategies are needed.

Corporate Social Responsibility reporting has grown increasingly in importance for companies in terms of portraying themselves as good corporate citizens. However, when confronted with a major corporate crisis that evoked an extensive loss in stakeholders’ trust, it remained unclear, how to further deal with the need for CSR communication without presenting oneself as exceedingly hypocritical. In the course of this study, the questions of how and to what extent crises cause change in a corporation’s CSR rhetoric were addressed. Therefore, the utilization of the rhetorical dimensions of logos, ethos, pathos, cosmos and autopoiesis as well as the amount of negative disclosure in the CSR reports of the world’s leading automobile companies (Toyota, General Motors, Volkswagen) were analyzed, one year before and one year after they had maneuvered themselves into a corporate crisis. The rhetorical analysis revealed that the distinctive context of each case (including the corporations’ responsibility for the crisis) dictated the rhetorical adjustments of the CSR reporting after the crisis. Moreover, it could be shown, that when reporting on the crisis cause itself, corporations tend to apply the dimension of ethos more frequently to counter the audience’s potential perception of their hypocrisy.

The primary objective of this research is to investigate the role of strategic human resource management practices in developing resilient organizational behavior. This research aims to test the mediating function of individual resilient behavior between strategic human resources management practices and resilient organizational behavior. Data was collected from 780 managerial level employees working in small and medium Chinese enterprises in Hubei Province through a self-administrated questionnaire. The Smart partial least square structural equation modeling technique was used for data analysis. The analysis showed a significant positive relationship among SHRM practices, employee resilient behavior, and resilient organizational behavior. Results also show that employee resilient behavior partially mediates the relationship between SHRM practices and resilient organizational behavior. Individual resilient behavior is needed when an organization is in crisis, restructuring, transformation, turbulent, and unfavorable conditions. Without individual resilient behavior, it is difficult for an organization to be resilient. Therefore, strategic human resource management practices are essential to develop an employee’s resilience. This research contributed to the body of knowledge by bringing new concepts together. The main contribution was testing the role of individual resilient behavior between strategic human resource management practices and resilient organizational behavior.
