Programme Overview

Corporate reputation has become one of the most valuable intangible assets for modern organisations. This programme explores why senior leaders rely heavily on reputation to drive customer loyalty, investor confidence, competitive advantage, and long-term business performance. Participants examine how reputation shapes stakeholder behaviour and influences outcomes across marketing, human capital development, operations, corporate communications, and finance. Through case discussions and expert-led sessions, the programme provides practical insights on how reputation enables organisations to achieve legitimacy and above-average returns.

The programme also addresses the growing frequency of reputation-damaging scandals—from workplace issues and environmental violations to poor media management and governance failures. Participants learn how to lead the corporate reputation function, respond to stakeholder pressures, navigate the digital media landscape, and build systems that protect organisational credibility. The programme equips leaders to anticipate risks, inspire responsible behaviour, and cultivate reputational strength in complex market environments.
