Descrizione

Identity and reputation are an organization’s ultimate assets. Identity gives sense to its actions, providing guidance and motivation both internally and externally. Reputation is the asset that allows an organization to have privileged access to resources and to benefit from a safety net in case of problems. Technology and globalization have increased business and societal complexity, speed and disruption. In this extremely dynamic environment, an organization needs to proactively nurture and communicate its identity and cultivate and protect its reputation. An organization’s identity influences the corporate life and, in particular, the way an organization strategizes. It is at the heart of a corporate brand and a driving factor of corporate reputation. 

Obiettivi

The purpose of this course is to help students understand how and why management of identity, corporate branding, and reputation are an important part of corporate strategy, and to give students the theoretical and analytical tools necessary to the task.
