Di tengah derasnya arus informasi dan maraknya disinformasi, pemimpin Public Relations (PR) dituntut tidak hanya piawai menyampaikan pesan, tetapi juga mampu menjaga reputasi organisasi serta membangun kepercayaan masyarakat.
Hal itu disampaikan Deputi Bidang Strategi dan Sistem Komunikasi Badan Komunikasi (Bakom) RI, Fahd Pahdepie, saat menghadiri ajang Indonesia Public Relations Top Leader 2026 di Jakarta.
Menurutnya, peran pemimpin komunikasi kini semakin strategis karena menjadi garda terdepan dalam memastikan kredibilitas informasi di tengah perubahan lanskap digital.
Fahd menilai penghargaan tersebut bukan sekadar seremoni, melainkan bentuk apresiasi kepada perusahaan dan para pemimpin komunikasi yang mampu menjaga reputasi sekaligus menghadirkan nilai berkelanjutan bagi masyarakat.
“Ajang penghargaan yang kita hadiri hari ini bukan sekadar seremoni, tetapi merupakan bentuk apresiasi bagi perusahaan dan para pemimpin yang berhasil membangun reputasi, menjaga kepercayaan publik, serta menghadirkan nilai yang berkelanjutan bagi masyarakat,” ujar Fahd dikutip Selasa, 4 Agustus 2026.
Lebih lanjut, Fahd mengingatkan bahwa praktisi PR perlu memahami tiga perubahan perilaku masyarakat, yakni survivorship bias, participation bias, dan authority bias.
Ketiga fenomena tersebut menunjukkan masyarakat kini menginginkan hasil yang serba cepat, ingin lebih dilibatkan dalam proses pengambilan keputusan, serta cenderung menyalahkan otoritas ketika muncul suatu persoalan.
Karena itu, tantangan komunikasi pada era AI tidak lagi sebatas menghadapi misinformasi dan disinformasi, tetapi juga memastikan informasi yang benar tetap dipercaya oleh publik.
Kepercayaan, menurut Fahd, menjadi aset utama yang harus terus dijaga melalui komunikasi yang transparan, akurat, dan konsisten.
Fahd berharap ajang Indonesia Public Relations Top Leader 2026 dapat menjadi pemacu semangat bagi para pemimpin komunikasi untuk terus meningkatkan kualitas komunikasi yang kredibel, memperkuat reputasi organisasi, serta menjaga kepercayaan masyarakat demi mendukung terwujudnya Indonesia yang semakin maju.
Adapun Indonesia Public Relations Top Leader 2026 yang digelar Warta Ekonomi memberikan apresiasi kepada kepada pemimpin komunikasi dan Public Relations (PR) dari berbagai sektor industri yang dinilai berhasil membangun kepercayaan publik, memperkuat reputasi organisasi, serta menghadirkan komunikasi yang strategis di tengah pesatnya perkembangan teknologi digital dan AI.
