One the points of interest that I cover briefly in my posting about communication plan is the communication strategy as a part of a communication plan. Communication plan and communication strategy are being used as steering documents in somewhat overlapping measures. To me, a communication plan is used when you have a defined project or…

In my years within this field, I have often run into the debate of whether or not effects within PR, or for that matter, communications on the whole, actually can be measured.
