COMMUNICATION CONSULTANTS AND PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PRACTICES: AN INTERNSHIP WITH ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT, INC.

Abstract Details

2014, Master of Technical and Scientific Communication, Miami University, English.
Through examining my role and experiences as an intern at Environmental Quality Management, Inc., an environmental consulting company in Cincinnati, Ohio, I begin to explore themes of audience and power. My first three chapters provide an overview of the company, descriptions of the clients I worked for and their projects I worked on, and detailed information about two major projects that I took the lead on. These chapters offer a frame of reference for the final chapter that looks at how communication consultants fit into public participation practices for environmental projects. I then propose a communication model that shows how communication consultants can leverage the public's role to play a more integral part when participating in decision-making processes for environmental projects.
