MSLGROUP Reputation Impact Indicator Study 2015 (China Edition)MSL
In the Age of Earned Trust, companies need a holistic approach to build a strong reputation that can facilitate success over time. The MSLGROUP Reputation Impact Indicator Study China edition highlights the China findings and provides insight into what drives the views held by the general public of some of the world’s best-known global corporate brands.
We hope you enjoy reading it and invite you to share your feedback and tips with us on Twitter @msl_group.

Ethics concern an individual's moral judgements about right and wrong. Decisions taken within an organisation may be made by individuals or groups, but whoever makes them will be influenced by the culture of the company.
Reputation is probably the most important asset owned by a company, and not only because it attracts and retains the best resources, but also because it leverages the value of the company’s unique character and identity by showing how well the company manages to align its external perception with the internal reality.
This document was prepared by Corporate Excellence and among other sources contains references to Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness by Gary Davies and Rosa Chun, Professors at the University of Manchester (the UK) and the IMD Business School (Switzerland), respectively, and published by Routledge in 2003.

MSLGROUP Reputation Impact Indicator Study 2015MSL
MSLGROUP has chosen to take a somewhat atypical approach to the study of reputation. Moving beyond simple rankings, or analyses of ‘drivers’ of reputation alone, we take a more holistic look at how a company must act to build a strong reputation that can facilitate success over time. The result of our research is this, the Reputation Impact Indicator study, part of MSLGROUP’s ongoing efforts to create better knowledge and tools for corporations to better understand how they can influence their reputation.
In the study, we have chosen to look at corporate reputation among a global general public. General public, because how they, as consumers and citizens, view corporations has a substantial and increasingly important impact on how other audiences view them. Global, because we live in an ‘always on’ and ‘on-demand’ world, where different audiences are constantly connected to each other. Today, more than ever, a multistakeholder perspective is necessary.

When companies struggle, blame is usually placed outside of the organization. And whether the culprits include an economic downturn, unfavorable regulatory actions, or geopolitical challenges, conventional wisdom supports the notion that external disruptions — beyond a company’s control — are most likely to seal its fate.
What Is Social Business ? A SideraWorks BriefXVA Labs
Social business. A term that’s been steadily gaining traction at the intersection of social media’s rise and the current shift in the business world. But what does it mean?
Clarifying the term “social business” is critical to determining whether it’s something we want our companies to be, and if so, how we go about achieving that. At SideraWorks, we’ve spent a great deal of time defining social business in a way that encompasses its essence, but avoids much of the jargon that simply adds to the confusion.

THE UK Stars OF 2015’s Christmas Advertising - InfographicKantar
Millward Brown’s Christmas advertising study explores the performance of 18 of this year’s leading TV ads, testing them with consumer audiences using its AdExpress tool.
Viewers reviewed and scored each on 12 factors proven to drive sales and build a brand: Branding, Involvement, Enjoyment, Made me love the brand, Sets the trends, Persuasion, New and different information, Relevance, Believability, Different from others, Meets my needs.
The 18 ads reviewed are from brands and retailers: Asda, Argos, Boots, Burberry, Cadbury’s, Celebrations, Debenhams, dfs, John Lewis, Lidl, Marks & Spencer, Mulberry, PayPal, Sainsbury’s, Sky Movies, Very, Waitrose and Warburtons.
Advertising plays a vital role in building brands. But even the best advertising, for a well-loved brand, perfectly deployed through media, needs a receptive audience.
Consumer receptivity to advertising is our industries most precious asset – it is our oxygen.
Today I want to convince everyone here that advertising receptivity is at genuine risk and we must, together, take better care of it.
Our behaviours as an advertising industry have been more bad than good and this is turning people off. We are belching out our own version of CO2 and ruining the environment for communications effectiveness.
People are becoming less receptive to advertising and it is our own fault – that’s the inconvenient truth.
How we are driving more brand spend into digital, focusing on the growth of programmatic as an industry through automation and how we can respond to these changes in the market with solutions.

Is It The Death Or Rebirth Of Digital Advertising?Kantar
Digital Ad spend has been growing steadily across the globe and in some markets now outpaces TV spend.
With this rise in spend we have also seen a steady increase in the formats and technology available to advertisers.
But are we as an industry forgetting who is at the heart of all these efforts? Are we in danger of losing consumer interest/ receptivity once and for all?

The top media trends that consumers don’t even know aboutKantar

And why does this matter? Because how consumers feel about or perceive marketing trends and advertising will impact how they feel about your brand and therefore the long-term financial success of your company.

Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations.

10. About the FMCG study
The Millward Brown ReputationAMP study of the FMCG industry draws on the results of both qualitative and quantitative research
conducted during May and June 2012.
The qualitative element comprised 10 one-hour in-depth interviews evaluating the reputational status of current FMCG organisations within
the context of prevalent industry debates and issues.
A total of 105 quantitative telephone interviews were also conducted, focusing on world-leading FMCG organisations, measuring key
metrics including awareness, confidence, proximity, familiarity, engagement and advocacy. Of the respondents: 35 were editors or senior
correspondents at global or UK business publications, including daily newspapers, specialist press or websites; 35 were professors or
department heads at academic institutes, with specific interest in business, the environment or sustainability; and 35 were directors or
influential thought leaders within intergovernmental organisations (IGOs), NGOs, or think tanks.
For reasons of commercial sensitivity, organisation identities are not revealed. However, the four FMCG companies in this study are all in
the top 200 of the Fortune Global 500 annual ranking of the world’s largest corporations.
