ULAB Roundtable Discusses Issues Management Print
Thursday, August 05 2010, 10:00am - 12:00pm
ULAB Roundtable Discusses Issues Management.

The Media Studies and Journalism (MSJ) Department of the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB) will host a roundtable discussion entitled “Issues Management in Bangladesh” on August 5, 10:00 to 12:00, at the ULAB Auditorium, Campus A.  The purpose of the activity is to explain the practice of issues management in Bangladesh; given its importance to public relations. Issues, according to Pete Smudde, “can arise unexpectedly but can also be anticipated.  Issues tend to arise unexpectedly and develop almost methodically over a period of time.”
    
The following questions are expected to be raised in the roundtable discussion:
 
•    What would public relations practitioners in Bangladesh consider as an “issue?”  How do “issues” develop?  Can “issues” be anticipated?
•    What are the more interesting “issues” that have occurred in Bangladesh?  How were these issues addressed?
•    How are issues managed by PR practitioners in the country?  How would you assess their management of issues?  What strategies are usually adopted?
•    What is the cultural predisposition of the government, non-government and business leaders in the country towards managing issues – preparing for it, ignoring it or somewhere in between?

Invited guests include ASM Bazlul Haque (Bangladesh Power Development Board), Sarker Maswood Hasan (Concito PR), M. Tajul Islam (Federation of NGOs in Bangladesh), Mirza Tarequl Qader (Bangladesh Institute of Journalism and Electronic Media), MA Khaleque (Bangladesh Telecommunication Company) and Mostofa E. Jamil (Bangladesh Railway).
