Reputation and Corporate Communication

Introduction

Reputation is one of the most important assets of an organization and possibly the least understood, thus putting reputations at risk. This course provides anyone working at any level within any function in any kind of organization with a basic understanding of the principles of reputation and how it is used in building the corporate brand with multiple stakeholders. 

We have access to insight from the international firm ReputationInc, which is headquartered in London, UK. This gives students access to up-to-date and relevant reputation work of a wide range of organizational types.
