Revisão sobre o rol do profissional de relações públicas
Resumo
Este artigo parte das abordagens profissionais nos estudos das relações públicas e apresenta as diferentes tipologias e formas de conceber o rol profissional, desde as primeiras pesquisas sobre este
campo disciplinar, com os estudos de Glen M. Broom e David M. Dozier na década de 1980, até a
atualidade, em que as mudanças tecnológicas e o contexto mundial geram novas expectativas para
desempenho deste rol. A revisão foi enquadrada nas publicações científicas da coleção principal de
Web of Science que foram classificadas segundo qual fosse sua abordagem: sobre o desempenho
do rol dos profissionais, sobre a situação na que se desempenha o rol, ou sobre a dinâmica dos roles
profissionais. Neste trabalho se conclui que a maioria das tipologias sobre o rol do profissional das
relações públicas está baseada nas declarações dos profissionais sobre as atividades desempenhadas e sobre as funções ou contribuições do rol para as organizações. Entre os assuntos que a literatura observa sobre o rol do profissional das relações públicas, predominam: as tensões entre o rol
do profissional das relações públicas e o jornalista; a discriminação segundo o sexo do profissional;
as propostas de tipologias de rol, y a descrição das competências e habilidades que são requeridas
para o desempenho do rol.
