CALL FOR PAPERS/PARTICIPANTS

 

6^th ICCOMAC – 2021

in collaboration with HIDESI 2021 Conference 

 

“Managing Issues in Human Communication Today”

 

Background

 

It is difficult for organizations to anticipate and keep in front of the changes they encounter. What worked during the recent Industry 4.0 may no longer be relevant in this evolving 21st century. What worked ten years ago may likely have evolved into something different. A sense of urgency, a fast pace, inconsistency, information overload, regenerating technology, and constant change characterize the dynamic changes as organizations move from operating in the industrial age to the information age. A few years ago, we were dependent on CDs, DVDs, and palm pilots, and now we don’t use many of those technologies. There are four elements of the changing landscape for organizations (Paynton and Hahn, 2019):

1) Organizations are becoming more global,

2) Images and identity are becoming increasingly important,

3) There is a shift to a more predominant service economy, and

4) The changing workforce is highlighted by the “disposable worker”, downsizing, early retirement, and temporary workers.

 

As a result, new directions of research are emerging. These changes are forcing those of us in organizational communication to reexamine existing communicative practices relative to the changing dynamics of organizations. For example, can a person lead without any personal, face-to-face contact? How do organizational values impact ethics, and what is the attitude towards ethical communication in this increasingly competitive age? How should work-life issues such as working parents, affirmative action, and drug screening be handled? With increasing diversity in the workplace, what is the role of intercultural communication? In this age of elevated tensions, how do stress and emotions communicatively manifest themselves in the workplace? What is the impact of our social media postings on our work lives?

 

One of the greatest challenges facing organizations is the practice of ethics. Ethics are a basic code of conduct (morals) that individuals and groups use to assess whether something is right or wrong. Thus, it is very timely that this year’s conference is in collaboration with HIDESI – Himpunan Dosen Etika Seluruh Indonesia, the association for Indonesia ethics lectures, as it plans for a conference on [Media] Ethics.

 

The combination of issues facing organizations and ethics to be considered in defining the communication today provides a profound reason to collaborate.

 

Theme:  Managing Issues in Human Communication Today

 

Venue: the conference will be held through a virtual conference
