These are the values that drive our decisions and behaviour.
Growth - Respect - Excellence - Authenticity - Trust
Who we are
It is imperative for the organisation to know who their various stakeholders are and to understand that they comprise of many different audiences, such as investors, employees, clients, suppliers, government, local communities, the media etc. It is also very important for the organisation to monitor and understand what is happening within their environment so that they can be proactive in response to changes affecting their stakeholders or themselves as an organisation.
The more the boundaries between the organisation and its environment are reduced, the more organisations are able to build mutually beneficial relationships with their various stakeholders. All these factors contribute to the perception that is formed by the various stakeholders, leading to the organisation’s reputation. It is important for the organisation to understand the values, requirements and specific needs of their stakeholders in order to live up to their expectations and to build on the organisation’s reputation. Ultimately, a good reputation contributes to a better bottom line, and will give an organisation the benefit of the doubt during troubled times.
Corporate reputation has many facets and must be strategically managed and tailored to individual stakeholder audiences.
