In addition, the relationships between business strategy and management strategy and corporate communication strategy will be discussed. There is a lack of literature addressing the relationships between governance, and corporate communication and directorial duty. CorpCom academic literature authors address CorpCom in strictly management terms (Oliver, Van Riel, Dolphin et al.) and there is opportunity to develop a governance– CorpCom model by drawing on Argenti’s ideal structure for CorpCom function model (Figure 6.3). Argenti (1998) says that a strong centralized function with direct connections to the chief executive officer is the best way for a company to ensure the success of its corporate communication function.

Because CorpCom writers, from Oliver to Van Riel, address CorpCom in strictly management terms, the various models (Oliver’s and Argenti’s) offer opportunity to develop a CorpCom governance model. Argenti (1998) argues that the CorpCom management position should be a strong centralized function directly reporting to and connected to the CEO. Many polls taken over recent decades in the United States, says Argenti (1998), consistently show a huge percentage of CEOs’ time spent communicating with various ‘constituents’ of the company, and he quotes research undertaken by the Tuck School of the Fortune 500 companies in the United States that shows CEOs have spent between 50 per cent and 80 per cent of © 2004 Sandra Oliver for editorial matter and selection; individual chapters, the contributors
