Public Relations in Israel

Most people would agree that Israel is a unique place. It is compromised of many religions and people from all walks of life who have chosen to call this place their home. The varied background of everyone in Israel adds to its uniqueness. The combination of the Western wall in Jerusalem with the $20 million penthouse on the Tel Aviv water front, a mere 90 minute drive from one another is astounding. The conflict between the old and the new is just one conflict out of many that shape Israel on a daily basis.

Even Israel's biggest supporters around the world would agree that for a country that small, Israel is mentioned in the international news extremely often. It is physically small and only inhabits 7 million people but these people make the news on a regular basis.

Internally things are no different. Israel may be only 61 years old but the fact that it houses bright minds and advanced technology also makes it an extremely competitive place. In fact, other than Silicone Valley no other place in the world has more start up companies. The abundance of intelligent people makes the practice of public relations all the more necessary, an informed public is harder to convince and even harder to rally behind an organization or a cause.

Israel is similar to other western nations in the sense that it has several different publics that organizations wish to target. The proliferation of digital media and the public's saturation of common advertising strengthen the need for public relations. The message that an organization takes interest in the public's well being is hard to convey via a 30 second spot on television. It is much easier to prove if that same message is delivered by a credible third party simply reporting news or pointing out the positive actions.

It takes careful planning and delicate handling for an organization to effectively communicate with its public. Shaping the proper message and staying on top of public perception are both solid attributes of great public relations. They are not only fundamental strategically but they also make all the difference in the world when hitting a speed bump or tackling a full on crisis.
