Produktbeschreibung
Communication directors have become part of public school districts' administrative framework in the 21st century. Maintaining a social media presence and satisfying stakeholders' expectations for current, up-to-date, and accurate information have increased the need for superintendents to employ a public relations professional. The purpose of this transcendental phenomenological study was to explore the various experiences of communication directors in public schools. Grunig's (1992) excellence theory served as the conceptual framework for the study. By employing a purposive sampling strategy, six current Texas public school communication directors were selected for face-to-face interviews and completed a demographic questionnaire. The five themes of Preparation, Responsibilities, Expectations, Challenges, and Recommendations emerged through constant comparative analysis of the data. Multiple rounds of descriptive and in vivo coding revealed numerous subthemes within each theme. The findings of the study highlighted the importance of developing relationships in the field of public school communications.
