Evaluation of Communication
  • is important because it is the only way to
    control if you are reaching your goals and
    have used your resources effectively
  • costs money so that you have to make sure that
    the costs and benefits are in the right
    relationship
  • is complex because the communications processes
    themselves are extremely complex.

3
Listening, Understanding, Accepting
  • Listening is the first of three hurdles that a
    message has to overcome.
  • Understanding is following the line of argument
    and forming an attitude.
  • Understanding can lead to Acceptance.
  • If you are accepted you will be extended
    long-term trust, you will be believed and you
    will also be able to generate active support for
    your objectives.
  • If the addressees are convinced, they might act
    in the way you hoped and anticipated.

4
Evaluation as signpost
  • Evaluation is not only an instrument to
    determine, after the fact, whether I have reached
    my objective,
  • Evaluation is a steering instrument
  • Evaluation is important during and after all
    phases of the management cycle

5
Evaluation and Transparency
  • Evaluation causes transparency
  • Transparency through evaluation is the basis for
    the legitimisation of communications work,
  • Transparency is necessary internally and
    externally.

6
Three types of Evaluation
  • Process evaluation - Investigates whether the
    right people do the right things at the right
    time. Processes should be evaluated in an
    on-going fashion.Are we doing the right things?
  • Efficiency analysis - This focuses on the
    relationship between the effectiveness and the
    resources used. Are we doing the things right?
  • Analysis of the effects and the effectiveness
    How can I measure what effects of my measures
    are?

7
Effects and effectiveness
  • The effects are described changes in cognitive,
    emotional and behavioural fields.
  • Effects in communications are all the resultant
    changes, intended or not.
  • I need a benchmark t evaluate my measure
  • Effectiveness is the extent to which a measure
    had achieved thr objectives.

8
Abuse
  • Checklists do not guarantee that communication
    measures will be more effective.
  • instruments like the balanced scorecard gain in
    popularity,there is an increasing tendency to
    employ them incorrectly.
  • The result is a return to simple communications
    measures because they are known and measurable.
  • The apparent objectivity of numbers and
    percentages draws people to making rushed
    interpretations.
  • The obsessive collection of figures can quickly
    become extremely expensive.

9

Effective evaluation of communication
  • Five steps
  • Set up an evaluation plan right at the start, try
    to identify the neuralgic points of the
    communications strategy.
  • Set goals and agree on the performance
    parameters. Then will you be able to carry out
    on-going checks.
  • Make use throughout of small efficient
    instruments. Evaluate them so that you can
    introduce improvements during an on-going
    process.
  • You need to know about your reference groups.
    Keep checking whether this knowledge is adequate
    and correct.
  • Communications management is also Management of
    uncertainty. Strategic communication involves
    not only state-of-the-art methodology but also
    common sense and gut feelings.
