Abstract:
This thesis contains three chapters exploring the implications of strategically biased information on political outcomes. The first chapter studies how a politically motivated media outlet misreports information in order to endorse its preferred candidate during an election. The task of identifying the reporting strategy through which an interested outlet can influence the decision of voters is non-trivial as there are many ways in which this can be done. I show that there is only one plausible equilibrium, where the media outlet ``pools'' information in a way that sways the decision of the me

Abstract:
The general awareness of the sustainability challenge and the urgency to act is increasing. However, the actions being taken do not seem to be sufficient, nor the communication about sustainability effective enough, to ensure a sustainable future. For our research, we looked at the work of sustainability practitioners using a scientifically robust framework called the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD). The research focuses on the interaction between the sustainability practitioner and the audience when communicating the FSSD. It is guided by its central inquiry, how the pr

Abstract:
In the past two years, six National Football League players have died by suicide. Investigations into most of the deaths revealed that the players suffered from brain damage likely caused by repeated concussions. As is the case with many health issues, tragedy often precedes action; the suicides of these high profile football stars have catalyzed action on concussion policy and practice, as well as opened up the conversation about the overall mental health of athletes. This thesis joins the conversation around mental health and athletes, specifically Canadian varsity football players. Mental h

Abstract:
Employees play a key role in organisation success through enacting behaviours that support organisational strategic goals. While managers are expected to contribute strategically, this thesis investigates if subordinates could move beyond an engaged state. Using mixed methods, this research conceptualised and measured the attributes of a strategic subordinate as a significant outcome of internal manager-subordinate communication. The findings of this research theoretically contributes to employee engagement and internal communication, and practically guides organisations to identify and suppor

Abstract:
Organizations increasingly use communication as a strategic function to maneuver in a challenging, complex, and demanding social landscape. Based on assumptions of centralized control and planning, the strategic communication concept aims for coordination and consistency of communication. Implied is a view of actors as intentional, rational, and deliberate decision makers. Such a conventional view on strategic communication, however, cannot satisfactorily explain the underlying characteristics of communication practices in contemporary organizations. Nor does it explain how organizational memb

Abstract:
Platsannonser är medveten kommunikation från arbetsgivare med avsikten att framförallt locka nya medarbetare, men fungerar även som marknadsföring av den rekryterande organisationen. I platsannonser är efterfrågan på personliga egenskaper hos den som ska anställas ett vanligt förekommande fenomen. Dessa egenskaper är av intresse i denna studie. ”Personliga egenskaper i platsannonser” är en kvantitativ innehållsanalysstudie av platsannonser från media och kommunikationsområdet där förekomsten av efterfrågade personliga egenskaper är vad som analyseras. Studien syftar till att belysa hur platsan
