| Summary: | Effective relationship maintenance strategies between organisations and its public are able to
help organisations to achieve its goals. In this study, researchers examined public relation
strategies used by Malaysian companies to build their relationship with stakeholders through
company websites. Based on Hon & Grunig’s relationship maintenance strategies, researchers
analysed whether companies listed on Bursa Malaysia are utilising these strategies, and if so,
how did they go about it? Quantitative content analysis was conducted to measure these
strategies on 199 companies chosen using stratified sampling technique. The study found that
access is the most commonly used strategy by companies listed on Bursa Malaysia, meanwhile a
significant difference was observed among listed companies in terms of openness, networking
and assurance strategies. |
