Corporate Reputation Important
The percentage of companies measuring corporate reputation has doubled over the past year, according to a survey by Hill and Knowlton and Chief Executive magazine. The survey also found that CEO compensation is still not linked to reputation management, although it carries a great deal of weight in the choice of a successor.(Beware: the survey is presented in a time-consuming "slideshow" format. - Editor)
