Elements of this definition Cross-functional process – This involves the organisation as a whole, all departments. Creating and nourishing strategically determined relationships – entities that are determined as being necessary to the long-term success of the organisation Stakeholders – Communication integration has moved away from the traditional marketing focus on customers only, to including a broader spectrum of interest groups Controlling or influencing all messages – This entails actively managing messages not only originating within the organisation but also those without Engaging in purposeful dialogue – This entails a relational approach, where organisation and stakeholder work together for mutual benefit

Why do we need to integrate? External market trends Trends within organisations 3. Societies’ demands for organisational integrity
