ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to examine, explain and interpret concepts of gender in relation to information management, crisis communication and collaboration within the framework of (crisis) communicator tasks. Since the crisis management realm is male-coded and the communications profession is female-coded, there is reason to gain more knowledge of how these relate to each other. The ambition is to contribute to an underdeveloped area of theory. A total of nineteen participants joined the study. All the interviews were processed according to the guidelines for the thematic analysis method. Analysis showed that three themes are central to understanding the role of communicators in the crisis management system. These are a) crisis communication as a temporary organization; b) requirements imposed on, and expectations from, the role and the individual and c) organizational greed. Results are discussed theoretically from a gender perspective, and practical implications are given as well as proposals for further studies.

危机管理中临时组织的性别视角

摘要

本研究的目的是在(危机)沟通者任务的框架内,检查,解释和解释与信息管理,危机沟通和协作有关的性别观念。由于危机管理领域是男性编码的,而通讯专业是女性编码的,因此有理由获得更多关于它们之间如何关联的知识。雄心壮志是为不发达的理论领域做出贡献。共有19名参与者参加了该研究。所有访谈均按照主题分析方法指南进行。分析表明,三个主题对于理解沟通者在危机管理系统中的作用至关重要。这些是a)作为临时组织的危机沟通;b)对以下方面的要求和期望 角色和个人,以及c)组织贪婪。从性别角度从理论上讨论了结果,并给出了实际意义以及进一步研究的建议。
