The new media has made the communication strategy a more integral component of the marketing strategy, where the two components converge. This article discusses the implications of this shift in terms of integrated marketing communication, drawing on existing academic and practical literature. It is assumed that the effective use of new media means that communication activities will guide tactics and strategy, rather than manage them. How you transmit a message is just as important as the message itself. A corporate culture can give your organization an important strategic advantage in these changing times. But what your culture consists of – goals, values, and practices-must be effectively communicated in accordance with best practices. Therefore, it is very important to focus not only on what you are communicating, but also on how you are communicating it.

The relevance of the problem under consideration is determined by the fact that foreign language teaching, in particular, English language teaching, is inextricably connected with the development of social interaction skills that in turn fosters a more successful integration into the global community. The research aims at a comprehensive consideration of the concept of interactional competence, its relation to communicative and pragmatic competences as well as the ways of its formation in students of non-linguistic universities. The work is carried out within the framework of the communicative approach that highlights the development of interpersonal intercultural interaction as well as social skills. In addition, the practicability of the inductive approach to the acquisition of interactional resources (communication strategies) becomes relevant as it implies that learning process goes from particular facts, i.e. observed phenomena in live spontaneous speech to general reasoning, i.e. patterns of their use. The study also implements the tenets of the sociocultural theory implying that learning and thought processes are based on the principles of collaboration and communication between people. The research findings are supported by the tenets of conversation analysis allowing to observe the structure of the spoken language and mechanisms of social interaction. The analysis of the academic literature allowed to identify the components of interactional competence such as: topic management, turn management, interactive listening, non-verbal behaviour, breakdown repair. An example of work with some communication strategies within the framework of the inductive approach is provided. The theoretical significance of the study lies in the description of interactional competence expanding on the language nature and opening up new frontiers and opportunities in English language teaching. The practical significance of the work is determined by the possibility of using the findings when developing programs in different educational contexts – linguistic and non-linguistic universities taking into consideration the learners' needs and learning goals. Highlighting the language interactional aspects in curricula provides the opportunity of raising learners' awareness of structure and features of spoken language and lays the foundation for successful communication.

The article examines the influence of the coach's communication style on the athletic achievements of hockey players. An analytical review of various communication models in sports training has been conducted, as well as the psychological mechanisms through which a coach's communication style can motivate and increase the effectiveness of the training process. Based on empirical data, a direct link has been identified between the coach's supportive and constructive communication style and the improvement of hockey players' results in competitions. The work highlights the importance of adapting the coach's communication strategies, taking into account the individual characteristics of athletes, to maximize their potential.

Contemporary international relations are increasingly challenged by cultural and linguistic barriers that lead to communication crises. This article explores various preventive strategies, including protocol standardization and intercultural adaptation programs. Practical solutions to communication dysfunctions have been developed based on both classical and modern approaches. Special attention is given to the role of linguistic factors and the cultural environment in global interactions.

This article examines the socio-psychological factors influencing the attitude of participants in digital communities to global risks. The relevance of the study is due to the growing importance of digital communications in shaping public perceptions of large-scale threats such as environmental change, pandemics, and technological disasters. The purpose of the work is to present the first results of the approbation of socio–psychological mechanisms of risk perception in the online environment. Methodologically, the research is based on a systematic analysis of the main theoretical concepts of social psychology, including the theory of social identity, cognitive and emotional approaches, as well as the theory of trust and media communications. The article integrates these models in order to identify the key factors shaping attitudes towards global risks within digital communities. The theoretical conclusions obtained provide the basis for subsequent empirical research and the development of effective communication strategies in the context of the digital transformation of modern society. The scientific novelty of the article lies in the integration of theoretical models of emotional perception, social identity, and trust in information sources to explain the behavioral and cognitive aspects of attitudes to global risks among users of digital platforms. The study revealed key trends in emotional and group reactions to risks, as well as the peculiarities of the influence of the information environment on the formation of assessments.
