www.corporatecomm.org 34
Interview Questions...
Eight questions sent by e-mail -- option to have a telephone interview or send return e-mail:
• The top three critical issues in corporate communication • Strategic importance of corporate communication in your organization • Top three trends in corporate communication in companies• Trends unique to the corporation’s industry or sector• Corporate communication contribution to overall success of the
corporation• Core competencies: for individual practitioners; for the corporation as
a whole• Impact of transparency and disclosure on the relationship between
ethics and advocacy in the practice of corporate communication• Additional comments
www.corporatecomm.org 35
Selected Comments: Critical Issues
“First and foremost is trust. As much as we have made advances to repair the reputation of business through better governance and communication, we continue to take steps back as well. For example, corporate blogs have been helpful by fostering direct, candid and open conversation with stakeholders, but some companies and agencies have engaged in deceptive practices concerning blogs. When these frauds are exposed, the impression is: new channel, same corporate trickery. “
www.corporatecomm.org 36
Selected Comments: Importance of Corporate Communication
“To me, the main importance is to demonstrate leadership and credibility, in word and deed. Those qualities are necessary for our success, but they took a big hit in the governance and trading scandals we experienced in recent years. Only through strong communication and a consistent record of doing the right thing can we regain trust, and with it, the ability to lead. “
“Our CEO is both a visionary and a pragmatist, who sees communication as essential to the success of both roles. As a visionary, he recognizes his opportunity (and obligation) to answer the questions, "where are we going?“ as well as "how?" and "why?" As an engineer by training, he also sees communication as a practical tool to engage employees to help realize this vision.”
www.corporatecomm.org 37
Selected Comments: Trends
“More willingness to explore social media and other "non-traditional“ channels of communication; growing dissatisfaction with advertising as too one-way and expensive. On a related note, companies also are talking in a more personal, less corporate voice, such as that of corporate blogging, and the personal and friendly nature of that voice personalizes the company and engenders trusting conversation.”
“Greater leadership and involvement in social issues that are important to stakeholders and the general public. Companies increasingly advocate for better education and health-care reform, social goods that impact society just as much if not more than they directly impact a company's bottom line.”
www.corporatecomm.org 38
Selected Comments: Contribution to Overall Success
“We help create the rhythm and cadence internally and externally of the business; protect and rebuild the corp’s image at the same time.”
“Corporate communications plays a large role in reputation management, which factors into both the CEO's individual performance goals with the board of directors as well as the company's overall business objectives.”
“A lot, I believe, given the nature of our industry, our role in the communities we serve and our relationships with our customers.”
www.corporatecomm.org 39
Selected Comments: Competencies for Communication Office
“an understanding of business in general, and a strong knowledge of how your specific organization works (makes money), strategic thinking, an ability to listen, an ability to counsel”
“The most essential is to have a "journalist's eye and pen" -- the ability (and drive) to identify a story and tell it in a compelling, concise way.
“Communicators also need to be at least conversant in management and finance, as well as core communications disciplines such as media relations, speechwriting and public speaking, crisis management and event management.”
www.corporatecomm.org 40
Selected Comments: Competencies for the Corporation
“More than a competency, the corporation as a whole must have a strong commitment to the value of good communication. If it does, it will make the hard decisions necessary to support the transparency, engagement and advocacy that are essential to positive reputation and public relationships.”
www.corporatecomm.org 41
Selected Comments: Transparency & Disclosure
“We just had a CEO who went through the “options backdating issue" fostered their departure. Put us in a challenging position going forward; 1) dealing with the ongoing investigation and the legal representation, and the protection and rebuilding of the corp. reputation.”
“Remedial actions are in place, and the outside council push back, so we said publicly we would, but the lawyers do not want us to communicate publicly”
“Conflict of the compliance and ethics and the rebuilding of the company brand. Have to balance the two.”
www.corporatecomm.org 42
Selected Comments: Crisis Planning
“Next crisis we will be faced with is Web 2.0 and beyond. It is clear that the next wave of tech adoption will only create a geometric progression of more challenges for cc due to the transparent and hyper connected nature that technology is bringing.”
