Why survey communities?The effects of corporate activities - both positive and negative - may be most keenly felt in the communities in which companies operate. Likewise, a community's response to corporate impacts can significantly affect a company's operations and reputation. It is essential for companies to understand the communities in which they operate, align themselves with the values and goals of the community, engage in constructive dialogue with local leaders, and effectively manage local public relations. Research is vital to gain the understanding needed to achieve these objectives. << Previous Next >> |
