Produktbeschreibung

Reputation is a commercially valuable asset. This book focuses upon how enhanced reputation can contribute to commercial asset management through increased share price premium and competitive performance, while reputation loss can significantly erode the ability of the business to successfully retain market share, maximise shareholder value, raise finance, manage debt and remain independent. It provides practical models and checklists designed to plan reputation management and risk communication strategies.

Rezensionen

'The threat to an organisation's reputation is one of the key problems facing management. This guide will help you understand and manage the risk you face.' - Professor Frank Furedi, University of Kent

'This work is exceptionally noteworthy on two scores. First: it manages to draw together a raft of currently popular concepts relating to an organization's communications responsibilities - and then succeeds in articulating them as a coherent yet workable corporate philosophy. Secondly it postulates an eminently practical methodology to guide executives faced with the increasingly daunting task of monitoring and managing the reputational risk process. Intellectually and academically Larkin has achieved a neat balance between advocating principles and recommending practices.' - Professor Tim Traverse-Healy, The Page Society

This book is immensely readable and provides a practical guide for senior managers who have to engage in active reputation management.' - Ann Sullivan, Senior Director, Cable & Wireless

'Reputation management is an essential part of boardroom competence today. This book will give corporate officers a head start in minimizing risks to reputation and building stakeholder relationships for competitive advantage.' - Malcolm T. Williams, Head of Group Issue Management & Resource Development, Shell International
