Abstract:
There are many interpretations of the term reputation'. Most authors refer to the general definition of reputation, considering reputation (fr., from lat. 'Reputatio' reflection, reasoning) as "a common opinion about the merits and demerits of someone, smth". The nature and essence of the business reputation of the enterprise are multifaceted and depending on the discipline studied, each researcher has his own interpretation. As well as the very concept of reputation for various fields of science is interpreted differently, the methods of assessment differ. In this article, we analyze the Economic Assessment of the Dependence of an Organization's Competitiveness on Reputation Capital and consider the tools that form reputation capital and methods for assessing it. Based on a review of existing factors in the formation of reputation capital and valuation methods, we will be able to identify key focuses for further research. In the course of the analysis carried out in the work, we found that the formation internal factors of reputation capital play a significant role in ensuring competitiveness, namely, the organization's personnel, its corporate culture.

Abstract:
AbstractIt is a commonplace in the history of science that reputations of scientists play important roles in the stories of scientific knowledge. I argue that to fully understand these roles we should see reputations as produced by communicative acts, consider how reputations become known about, and study the factors influencing such processes. I reapply James Secord's ‘knowledge-in-transit’ approach; in addition to scientific knowledge, I also examine how ‘biographical knowledge’ of individuals is constructed through communications and shaped by communicative contexts. My case study is Carl Sagan, widely discussed – amongst scientists, media professionals and publics – for his skill as a charismatic popularizer, his perceived arrogance, his political activism, and his debated merit as a researcher. By examining how aspects of Sagan's reputation circulated alongside his scientific work – rather than existing as a static context for his scientific work – I show how different forms of knowledge (biographical and scientific) influence each other as they circulate.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of transformational leadership and corporate reputation on employer branding by testing a hypothesized model. This study employed a quantitative online survey technique. The researcher distributed 350 questionnaires through purposive sampling out of which 132 questionnaires received back for data analysis. Regression analysis was selected to analyze the collected data to test the hypothesis developed from past literature. Results validate that transformational leadership has an impact on employer branding and employer branding has a direct impact on corporate reputation but correlation amid transformational leadership and business reputation goes insignificant when added employer branding showing full mediation of this variable. The present study backs the writings of business reputation that can be developed through transformational leadership and employer branding. The findings would be helpful for organizational leaders in developing strategies to create a corporate reputation.

Abstract:
This research paper recognizes the association between corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices and firm reputation. The researcher collected the data from 239 fast moving consumer goods enterprises located in the industrial area of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The CSR practices are measured by recycling of products, green purchasing, environmental awareness/protection programs, and direct support to the community. This research adopts a simultaneous regression technique to test hypotheses. The results show that CSR practices have a strong positive relationship with enterprise reputation. Meanwhile, direct support to community and environmental protection programs have a greater positive effect on firms’ reputation as compared to green purchasing and recycling of products. In addition, CSR practices arouse sympathy in consumers’ minds, which translates into repeat buying of products.

Abstract:
Public relations practice is a profitable interpretation of an organization's new and continuous relationship with stakeholders, including customers, by managing all communication relationships with the organization that creates the reputation and protects its reputation [5]. The researcher has employed mixed research methods. Mixed approaches are far more compressive than attacking a problem one point of view and allow a different type of data to be accessed from disciplinary boundaries. Employing a purposive sampling method, a total of 7 PR officers of the Tigray region education Bureau and the Public relations Manager of the respective Bureau have been selected. An interview and questionnaires have been employed to gather data. After the researcher has collected the relevant data using the mixed research methods it has been analyzed. The data which was gathered using a quantitative research method has been analyzed and interpreted in a table and report in percentage with sufficient explanation for each table result and percentages using SPSS data analyzing software. Besides, the gathered data using a qualitative research design was analyzed in the reporting method with elaboration.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide evidence on the information-gathering deficits in contemporary reputation measurement that are rooted in sampling and to obtain supporting information from respondents from various stakeholder groups. Design/methodology/approach In regard to social emergence theory, the authors examine the common practice of aggregating reputational judgments from randomly sampled respondents without considering their knowledge domains. A stereotyping experiment conducted in three countries provides evidence that lower-level reputations might vary, whereas higher-level reputations resulting from the social emergence process do not vary. Findings The findings demonstrate that researchers should consider respondents’ heterogeneity in regard to reputation measurement. Stakeholder judgments divergent from their domains of expertise often add noise, instead of informative answers, to the reputational categories. Research limitations/implications The social emergence process, in addition to the roles of the stakeholders, their interaction structures and the timing of their communication, needs to be incorporated into an improved reputation measurement method. Practical implications Not all information from the same respondent should be considered when computing a final reputation score. Respondents’ heterogeneity is revealed to be fundamental for reputational assessments. Originality/value This study is original in its examination of the validity of reputation assessment being restricted to lower-level descriptions of the supervenience relation. Building upon the results of the experiment conducted in three national framings, this paper suggests ways to improve reputation measurement.

Abstract:
A tarefa de avaliar a produção científica de um pesquisador é fortemente baseada na análise de seu currículo. É o que fazem, por exemplo, as agências de fomento à pesquisa e desenvolvimento ou comissões de avaliação, quando necessitam considerar a produção científica dos pesquisadores no processo de concessão de bolsas e auxílios, na seleção de consultores e membros de comitês, na aprovação de projetos ou simplesmente para avaliar o conceito de um programa de pós-graduação. Nesse contexto, a modelagem de perfis de pesquisadores é tarefa fundamental, especialmente quando se quer avaliar a reputação dos pesquisadores. Isto pode ocorrer por meio de um processo de análise da trajetória de toda a carreira científica do pesquisador. Tal processo envolve não somente aspectos relacionados a artigos ou livros publicados, mas também por outros elementos inerentes à atividade de um pesquisador, como orientações de trabalhos de mestrado e de doutorado; participação em defesas de mestrado e de doutorado; trabalhos apresentados em conferências; participação em projetos de pesquisa, inserção internacional, dentre outros. O objetivo deste trabalho é especificar um modelo de perfil de pesquisadores (Rep- Model) e uma métrica para medir reputação acadêmica (Rep-Index). O processo de modelagem do perfil envolve a definição de quais informações são relevantes para a especificação do perfil e as apresenta por meio de 18 elementos e 5 categorias. O processo para medir a reputação do pesquisador é definido por uma métrica que gera um índice. Esse índice é calculado mediante a utilização dos elementos constantes no perfil do pesquisador. Para avaliar a abordagem proposta na tese, diversos experimentos foram realizados. Os experimentos envolveram a avaliação dos elementos do Rep-Model por meio de análise de correlação e por algoritmos de mineração de dados. O Rep-Index também foi avaliado e correlacionado com duas métricas amplamente utilizadas na comunidade científica, o h-index e o g-index. Como baseline, foram utilizados todos os pesquisadores do CNPq das áreas de Ciência da Computação, Economia e Odontologia. O trabalho desenvolvido nesta tese está inserido no contexto da identificação da reputação de pesquisadores no âmbito acadêmico. A abordagem desta tese tem como premissa ser abrangente e adaptável, pois envolve a vida científica do pesquisador construída ao longo de sua carreira científica e pode ser utilizada em diferentes áreas e em diferentes contextos.<br>The task of evaluating the scientific production of a researcher is based strongly on the analysis of their curriculum. It's what makes the agencies for research support or evaluation committees, when they need to consider the scientific production of researchers in the process of awarding grants and aid in the selection of consultants and committee members in approving projects or simply to assess the concept of a program graduate. In that context, the modeling of profiles of researchers is fundamental task especially when one wants to evaluate the reputation of the researchers. This can occur by means of a process of analysis of the trajectory of all the scientific career of the researcher. Such process involves not only aspects related to papers or books, but also other elements inherent in the activity of a researcher, as orientations of master’s degree and doctorate; participation in defense of master's and doctoral degrees; papers presented in conferences, participation in research projects, international integration, among others. This proposal specifies a profile template for researchers (Rep-Model) and a metric to measure academic reputation (Rep-Index). The profile modeling process involves define which information is relevant to the specification of the profile and shows through 18 elements and 5 categories. The process for measuring researcher's reputation is defined by a metric that generates an index. This index is calculated by using the information contained in the profile of the researcher. To evaluate the approach proposed in the thesis, extensive experiments were conducted. The experiments involved the evaluation of Rep-Model by means of correlation analysis and data mining algorithms. The Rep-Index was also evaluated and correlated with two metrics widely used in the scientific community, the h-index and gindex. As a baseline, all of CNPq researchers in the areas of Computer Science, Economics and Dentistry were used. The work in this thesis is set in the context of identifying the reputation of researchers within the academic sphere. The approach of this thesis is premised be comprehensive and adaptable, because it involves the life science researcher built throughout his scientific career and can be used in different research areas and in different contexts.

Abstract:
Today, the proliferation of social communication channels and the rapidization of communication cause fast dispersion of information and interpretation of social, cultural and economic developments. Therefore, societies interact with organizations not only through products and services, but also through image, visibility, perceptions, rumors, etc. Organizations have to develop reputation policies<br>they have to measure, track and manage their reputation. The most important element of an organization&rsquo<br>s reputation management is the ability to see its current reputation standing and make proper projections. Reputation measurement studies aim to achieve that. However, these studies usually focus on the perceptions and assessments of organizations&rsquo<br>characteristics and performances. There are social dynamics and social identities, which are constituted independent of what an organization is and does, and they are influential on reputation. Ignoring this would lead to a blurry picture of reputation. Social issues and developments operating independent of the organization, but are related to its products/services, do have impact on people&rsquo<br>s assessment of reputation. This study focuses on the significance of the social determination of reputation. It claims that socially influential discourses like health, anti-Americanism, environmentalism, along with political or cultural identities, act as a filter for people&rsquo<br>s evaluations of companies&rsquo<br>reputations. Individuals, when they give reputation scores to companies, not only consider their characteristics, products or services, their size, internationality, etc. but also evaluate companies&rsquo<br>identities, their positions with respect to social issues related to their products/services. Individuals also evaluate reputation according to their own habituses, their political and cultural identities.

Abstract:
This study analyses the factors which determine the reputation of governmental research departments and/or organisations in Bahrain. Reputation in this context refers to the extent to which research scientists regard the department in which they work as a good place or bad place to practise science. Thus it is internal rather than external reputation which is in question. Research scientists in departments within sixteen ministries and organisations were included in the study. The sample of 163 respondents was representative in terms of age, sex, qualifications and experience of the research scientists in the organisations covered. All the research scientists were educated to at least the level of Bachelor of Science (BSc) and in some cases had obtained a higher degree, Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy. The views of the research scientists were collected by means of a questionnaire which contained 98 Likert-type questions. The relationships between the independent variables and the dependent variable, reputation, were examined using correlation and multi-variate analysis. The factors which contributed most to the perception of reputation were identified. Innovatory climate (INNO) emerged as the main determinant of internal reputation, job satisfaction (JSAT) as the second most important determinant, academic and scientific reputation (ACADM) as the third and working conditions (WCON) as the fourth determinant of internal reputation. The reputation equation with the contribution of each factor to the variance is summarised as: Reputation: INNO (51.4%); JSAT (7%); ACADM (2.3%); WCON (1%). This result confirms the result of the UK study by Jones (1996) which established innovatory climate and job satisfaction as the main determinants of internal reputation amongst RandD scientists in UK.

Abstract:
Online reputation systems are certainly the most overlooked 'heroes' of today's social Web. While these mechanisms are a vital element of every online transaction, they have received less consideration than some of their more well-known cousins, such as recommender systems or social networks, whose success would often not have been possible and tenable without their discrete but active backing. It then follows that despite their value and importance, the implementation of current reputation mechanisms has mostly been the result of trial-and-error. Resting on an economic perspective, this thesis regroups three chapters whose frameworks and findings aim at helping mechanism designers and researchers understand key mechanisms at play and develop more efficient online reputation systems. The first chapter examines the optimal number of ratings a reputation mechanism must make publicly available within an online marketplace in order to minimize cheating and maximize Pareto efficiency. I develop a moral hazard stage game featuring fictitious players which has the compelling property to prevent reputation effects from disappearing in the long run. I show that the number of ratings displayed by a reputation system is a fundamental predictor of market efficiency, and that the latter number should be kept minimal in order to maximize social welfare in the market – especially for economies proposing interactions with a high profit margin. The second chapter studies how different classes of reporting behaviours commonly found online affect the reliability of a reputation mechanism. I develop an iterative stochastic approximation model which I use to construct a behavioural measure of efficiency, so-called 'reporting bias'. I demonstrate that reporting bias tends towards its maximum when raters comply with the reports left by their predecessors. Following this result, I recommend to keep the rating interface separated from the rest of the reputation system. I also find that fake ratings are particularly harmful when one type of behaviour is present in the economy and suggest to counterbalance sybil attacks by displaying pairs of contrasted ratings. Finally, I defend the use of the arithmetic mean against the median as a way to compute reputation scores. The third chapter analyses how 5-star rating scales can lead to the formation of bimodal distributions of ratings within online marketplaces. Using a 2-time period model featuring altruistic raters, I identify the existence of a 'blind spot' of unrated transactions whose magnitude increases in the cost of rating and decreases in the number of buyers inhabiting the economy. Developing an additional model featuring Bayesian agents suffering from confirmatory bias, I show that non-binary rating scales can leave space to ambiguity and possibly wrong posteriors, even in the long run. Overall, results of the chapter hint that fine-grained rating scales best suit signalling reputation systems while coarse-grained scales should be preferred for sanctioning mechanisms.

Para melhor entender este conceito, fizemos uma breve contextualização da sociedade, as organizações e os indivíduos, buscando entender a relação existente entre os três para nos dar subsídios para a discussão da reputação que permeiam essa relação. A seguir fizemos um mapeamento dos diferentes conceitos e abordagens que vêem se consolidando na discussão acadêmica sobre o tema, assim dividimos 'reputação corporativa' em três grandes abordagens: reputação como ativo, reputação como avaliação e reputação como percepção. Também trabalhamos com aspectos ligados a crise, identidade e imagem que estão presentes nas diversas abordagens. Então fomos a campo e entrevistamos 14 profissionais de diversas áreas, colocando duas perguntaschave: 'O que é reputação corporativa?' e 'Como se constrói uma reputação corporativa?' Buscamos assim contribuir para o avanço dos conhecimentos de um campo de pesquisa ainda em formação e muito insipiente no Brasil, através da modalidade de pesquisa denominada Grounded Research. A partir dos resultados das entrevistas, criamos oito categorias: conceitos de reputação, atributos de reputação, reputação como um ativo, olhar interno, fatores desestabilizadores da reputação, reputação e comportamento em crise, má reputação, reputação no setor bancário. De posse destes resultados, confrontamos os nossos achados com a teoria que vem se consolidando.<br>This study aimed to investigate the theme 'Corporate Reputation' in its most diverse approaches, thereby trying answering what is the concept of reputation, or what are their different concepts, and how it is constructed on the basis of opinions of people from areas of academic formation and that act in different positions in corporations.

Then we did a mapping of the different concepts and approaches that see whether consolidating the academic discussion on the topic thus divide 'corporate reputation' in three broad approaches: reputation as an asset, reputation as evaluation and reputation as perception. We also work with aspects the crisis, identity and image that are present in the various approaches. Latter, we went to the camp and interviewed 14 professionals from various fields, placing two key-questions: 'What is corporate reputation?' and 'How to build a corporate reputation?' We seek to contribute to the advancement of knowledge of a field of research still in beginning and very premature in Brasil, through the form of search called Grounded Research. From the results of the interviews, we create eight categories: concepts of reputation, attributes of reputation, reputation as an asset, internal view, destabilizing factors of reputation, reputation and behavior in crisis, bad reputation, reputation in the banking sector. With these results, face our findings with the theory that has consolidated.

Abstract:
Doutoramento em Gestão<br>Corporate reputation is an increasingly valuable intangible organisational asset. Reputation is perceptual, multidimensional, specific, and varies from stakeholder to stakeholder. However, there is still a lack of research in understanding the reputation-formation process. The social construction approach to reputation uses stakeholder theory to understand the process of forming a corporate reputation. Stakeholder theory recovers the central role of values in organisational strategy and sets the tone for the development of responsible management and responsible leadership. The organisational values adopted by the organisation's top management (espoused values) influence organisational dynamics. Still, studies on the connections of the values adopted by the top corporate management and their effects on internal and external stakeholders are scarce. This study aims to understand how the values embraced by the top management play a role in the formation of corporate reputation. With a qualitative processual approach and a narrative construction strategy, 62 in-depth interviews were conducted with the management of the largest national radio group and various internal and external stakeholders. Also, I collected archival data on cases and events identified in the interviews, in a total of 28 cases. This study presents a process that reveals how the salience of the values adopted by the top management (espoused values) enter the orgnisation's ethical reputation formation process.<br>A reputação corporativa é um ativo organizacional intangível cada vez mais importante. A reputação é percetual, multidimensional, específica e varia de stakeholder para stakeholder. No entanto, o processo de formação da reputação carece de mais investigação. A abordagem de construção social da reputação recorre à teoria de stakeholders para compreender o processo de formação da reputação corporativa. A teoria de stakeholders recupera o papel central dos valores na estratégia organizacional e, desta forma, define o tom para o desenvolvimento da gestão e da liderança responsável. Os valores organizacionais adotados pela gestão da organização influenciam a dinâmica organizacional, mas ainda são escassos os estudos sobre as relações dos valores adotados pela gestão organizacional e os seus efeitos nos stakeholders internos e externos à organização. O objetivo deste estudo é compreender como os valores adotados pela gestão desempenham um papel na formação da reputação corporativa. Com uma abordagem processual qualitativa, e uma estratégia de construção de narrativas, realizaram-se 62 entrevistas em profundidade, aos membros da administração do maior grupo de rádio nacional, e a diversos stakeholders internos e externos. Recolheram-se também dados sobre casos e eventos identificados nas entrevistas, num total de 28 casos. Este estudo apresenta um processo que revela a saliência dos valores adotados pela gestão, na construção da reputação ética da organização.<br>info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion

Cette recherche-action menée au sein de la DSIC de La Poste s’intéresse à la réputation des organisations et à son pendant numérique (l’e-réputation) par le prisme des sciences de l’information-communication. Elle propose le développement d’un processus et d’un dispositif de veille stratégique par infomédiation sociale permettant à une organisation d’évaluer, de gérer et in fine de construire son e-réputation.Dans un premier temps, nous présentons un cadre théorique de la réputation des organisations comme objet info-communicationnel. Puis nous abordons l’e-réputation (ou réputation en ligne) des organisations comme une information stratégique constituée de l’ensemble des indicateurs issus de la commensuration des interactions intentionnelles endogènes ou automatisées des communautés virtuelles avec l’organisation : productions d’opinions, notations ou encore agir des publics.Dans un deuxième temps, nous nous questionnons sur les moyens à disposition du groupe La Poste pour construire cette e-réputation. Par « construction », nous entendons la manière de structurer l’environnement informationnel dans lequel les publics de l’organisation évoluent chaque jour sur le web dit social, et plus spécifiquement sur la plate-forme Twitter. Dans ce cadre, nos observations empiriques nous permettent de mettre en exergue, de questionner et d’analyser des utilisateurs du web dont les pratiques informationnelles nous amènent à les qualifier « d’agents-facilitateurs », et dont la caractéristique principale est de participer à la prescription informationnelle et à la médiation documentaire sur le web.Suite à l’observation de certains de ces agents et à la production d’une typologie, nous proposons un modèle et un processus de veille les intégrant.

Then we discuss corporate e-reputation such as a strategic information made up of all commensuration indicators constituted by intentional (endogenous or not) interactions with the virtual communities and the firm : productions of opinions, assessment or public behavior.In a second step, we investigate how La Poste group can build its e-reputation. By "build" we mean the way to structure the informational environment where customers evolve each day on social web, and more specifically on the Twitter platform. In this context, our empirical observations allow us to highlight, question and analyze, web users whose informational practices permit us to qualify of "facilitators-agents", and whose main characteristic is to participate in informational prescription and the documentary mediation on the web.After the observation of some of these agents and the production of a typology, we propose a model and a monitoring process to integrate them. Our process's results in La Poste show the need to take into account and analyse recommendation practices on social networks to build corporate e-reputation proactively

Abstract:
The word media hype is often used as rhetorical argument to dismiss waves of media attention as overblown, disproportional and exaggerated. But these explosive news waves, as well as - nowadays - the twitter storms, are object of scientific research, because they are an important phenomenon in the public area. Sometimes it is indeed 'much ado about nothing' but in many cases these media storms have play an important role in political issues, scandals and crises. Twitter storms sometimes ruin reputations within hours. Although different concepts are used, such as media hypes, news waves, media storms, information cascades or risk amplification, all the studies in this book refer to the same process in which key events trigger a chain of reactions and interactions, building up huge news waves in the media or rapidly spreading social epidemics in the social media. This book offers the first comprehensive overview of this important topic. It is not only interesting for scholars and students in media and journalism, but also for professionals in PR and communication, crisis communication and reputation management.

Abstract:
This collection brings together art historians, museum professionals, conservators, and conservation scientists whose work involves Rembrandt van Rijn and associated artists such as Gerrit Dou, Jan Lievens, and Ferdinand Bol. The range of subjects considered is wide: from the presentation of convincing evidence that Rembrandt and his contemporary Frans Hals rubbed elbows in the Amsterdam workshop of Hendrick Uylenburgh to critical reassessments of the role of printmaking in Rembrandt's studio, his competition with Lievens as a landscape painter, his reputation as a collector, and much more. Developed from a series of international conferences devoted to charting new directions in Rembrandt research, these essays illuminate the current state of Rembrandt studies and suggest avenues for future inquiry.

Abstract:
By developing the biographical genre though a “translocal micro-history” approach, the research aims to study the figure of Eric J. Hobsbawm focusing on his elective affinity with Italy. It examines the ways in which the encounter of the English historian with this country took place and was renewed from the fifties until the new Millennium. First, it analyzes the relationships networks which Hobsbawm created in Italy or with Italians worldwide; secondly, it considers the results that these interactions provoked at the level of scientific production and political reflection, trying to capture at the same time the transformations that his political identity underwent in contact with the Italian Communist Party. Moreover it try to explore the features that his reputation reached in Italy, discussing the influences his production exerted on Italian historiographical context and on Italian public opinion.

Abstract:
Reputations can make or break citizens, communities, or companies. Reputations matter for individual careers, for one’s chances of finding a partner, for a profession’s credibility, or for the value of a firm’s stock options – to name but a few. The key mechanism for the creation, maintenance, and destruction of reputations in everyday life is gossip – evaluative talk about absent third parties. Reputation and gossip are inseparably intertwined, but up until now have been mostly studied in isolation. The present Handbook closes this gap, drawing on cutting edge insights from a multitude of disciplines, ranging from psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology and economics to philosophy, neurobiology and computer science. Being the first integrated and comprehensive collection of studies on both phenomena, each of the 25 chapters explores the current state of the art on the antecedents, processes and outcomes of the gossip-reputation link in contexts as diverse as online markets, non-industrial societies, modern firms, social networks, or schools. The volume is organized into seven parts, each of them devoted to the exploration of a different facet of gossip and reputation. Highly international in scope, the volume brings together some of the most eminent experts on gossip and reputation. Their contributions do not only help us to better understand the complex interplay between two of society’s most delicate social mechanisms. By pointing to new problems and a newly emerging cross-disciplinary solutions, the book also sketches the contours of a long term research agenda.

Abstract:
Purpose – the purpose of the article is to identify the criteria influencing on the reputational performance of a financial organisation and recognise the impact of reputation on the activities of a financial institution. Research methodology – to estimate the reputational impact on a financial organisation an interview with experts was conducted. In order to process the received data SAW, COPRAS and geometric mean methods were used. The mentioned methods were applied for performance measurement to ensure the inclusion of the reputation-sensitive data. Findings – the weakest position of the financial company in terms of reputational condition implies decreased efficiency of its performance. The degree of reputation and the impact of repercussions on the organisation’s performance can be further measured through financial analysis. Research limitations – the financial organisation analysed in the current study does not provide services for local clients, hence there is no possibility to obtain primary data from direct interactors. Practical implications – the research results provide insight towards key areas to look on while conducting root-cause analysis for decrease of financial performance; reputational impact measurement model can be used for further planning processes related to the future repercussions prevention. Originality/Value – literature overview results prove that it is still argued over the way reputational impact could be measured due to the fact that organizational reputation is attributed to a long-term intangible asset which is sensitive towards the subjectivity of the analysed matter. While it is usual to measure the reputation from the clients’ perspective, the research on reputation impact relies on the particular statistical data on company’s condition in the market.

Abstract:
Aim/Purpose: Being noticed as a scholar is becoming increasingly difficult as publication outlets proliferate and the number of scholars grows. The purpose of this workshop is to explore the use of online academic profiles to enhance the reputation and visibility of scholars. Background: A scholar's reputation is built by garnering the attention of peer experts capable of judging the credibility of their work. Online academic profiles provide a way for scholars to increase awareness of their achievements. Methodology: This workshop provides an overview of various online academic profile plat-forms, demonstrates how profiles are created, recommends best practices for profile maintenance, discusses issues surrounding profile trustworthiness, and reports future trends in the context of recent shifts among organizations sponsoring online academic profiles. Contribution: Online academic profiles have been available for over a decade, but patterns of use are inconsistent. This workshop enables participants to leverage academic profiles to better understand and enhance their scholarly reputation. Findings: Even though researchers express reservation about current implementations of online academic profiles, they believe these profiles are becoming increasingly important as a way for scholars to manage reputation, visibility, and recognition. Recommendation for Researchers: To increase stature in the digital age, scholars are encouraged to create and maintain a robust online professional persona. Impact on Society: Online academic profiles enable scholars to make themselves and their work more visible, increasing the utility of valuable research that might otherwise remain inaccessible or obscure. Future Research: Future research should continue to explore how scholars use online academic profiles, as well as the impact of profiles on research opportunities, collaborative exchange, recognition, and visibility.

The scientific literature claims that a positive reputation is based on the effective management of all elements of the so-called corporate identity, i.e. corporate philosophy, culture, design, product and communication. The aim of our qualitative research in three large chemical industrial enterprises in the Czech Republic was to identify which specific tools within their corporate identity the enterprises use and consider to be most effective for the creation of their positive reputation with customers. The result is a comprehensive overview of the tools for creating a positive reputation with customers, especially for large industrial enterprises, not only in the Czech Republic.

Abstract:
As with all their assets, organizations need management when it comes to their reputation. Having a successful corporate reputation is closely related to how corporations manage their existing reputation. The main components of long-term corporate reputation are categorized as appealing to emotions, product and service quality, vision and leadership, financial performance, workplace environment and social responsibility (Fombrun et al., 2013: 253). Among these components, financial performance is positioned as one of the main factors that come to the fore especially in crisis situations. Financial performance is also an effective factor in building trust in all relationships established with the target audience. Therefore, organizations should reflect their financial performance with a good corporate communication strategy in order to create a solid corporate reputation based on trust. The Covid-19 pandemic, which affected the whole world in 2019, negatively affected many corporations in Turkey economically. In the face of this situation, which can be described as a global crisis, corporations carried out corporate communication activities that support corporate reputation management in order to turn the crisis into an opportunity. It is seen that especially the financial performances of the corporations are highlighted among these activities carried out with the aim of strengthening the positive image of the corporations in the eyes of their stakeholders and the public. Within the scope of this research, the press releases published by five companies operating within the automotive sector in Turkey, among the sectors given in the Sectoral Impact of Covid 19 on the Economy report of Global Times (2020), were examined through the content analysis method in the context of financial performance indicators. The purpose of the research is to reveal how organizations reflect their strategies, which include the elements that reflect their financial performance in their press releases, to the public. As a result of the research, the financial performance indicator that took the most place in all the press releases examined was determined as “competitive advantage”.

Phillips, Jake. Understanding the impact of inspection on probation. Sheffield Hallam University, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.7190/shu.hkcij.05.2021.

Full text
Abstract:
This research sought to understand the impact of probation inspection on probation policy, practice and practitioners. This important but neglected area of study has significant ramifications because the Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation has considerable power to influence policy through its inspection regime and research activities. The study utilised a mixed methodological approach comprising observations of inspections and interviews with people who work in probation, the Inspectorate and external stakeholders. In total, 77 people were interviewed or took part in focus groups. Probation practitioners, managers and leaders were interviewed in the weeks after an inspection to find out how they experienced the process of inspection. Staff at HMI Probation were interviewed to understand what inspection is for and how it works. External stakeholders representing people from the voluntary sector, politics and other non-departmental bodies were interviewed to find out how they used the work of inspection in their own roles. Finally, leaders within the National Probation Service and Her Majesty’s Prisons and Probation Service were interviewed to see how inspection impacts on policy more broadly. The data were analysed thematically with five key themes being identified. Overall, participants were positive about the way inspection is carried out in the field of probation. The main findings are: 1. Inspection places a burden on practitioners and organisations. Practitioners talked about the anxiety that a looming inspection created and how management teams created additional pressures which were hard to cope with on top of already high workloads. Staff responsible for managing the inspection and with leadership positions talked about the amount of time the process of inspection took up. Importantly, inspection was seen to take people away from their day jobs and meant other priorities were side-lined, even if temporarily. However, the case interviews that practitioners take part in were seen as incredibly valuable exercises which gave staff the opportunity to reflect on their practice and receive positive feedback and validation for their work. 2. Providers said that the findings and conclusions from inspections were often accurate and, to some extent, unsurprising. However, they sometimes find it difficult to implement recommendations due to reports failing to take context into account. Negative reports have a serious impact on staff morale, especially for CRCs and there was concern about the impact of negative findings on a provider’s reputation. 3. External stakeholders value the work of the Inspectorate. The Inspectorate is seen to generate highly valid and meaningful data which stakeholders can use in their own roles. This can include pushing for policy reform or holding government to account from different perspectives. In particular, thematic inspections were seen to be useful here. 4. The regulatory landscape in probation is complex with an array of actors working to hold providers to account. When compared to other forms of regulation such as audit or contract management the Inspectorate was perceived positively due to its methodological approach as well as the way it reflects the values of probation itself. 5. Overall, the inspectorate appears to garner considerable legitimacy from those it inspects. This should, in theory, support the way it can impact on policy and practice. There are some areas for development here though such as more engagement with service users. While recognising that the Inspectorate has made a concerted effort to do this in the last two years participants all felt that more needs to be done to increase that trust between the inspectorate and service users. Overall, the Inspectorate was seen to be independent and 3 impartial although this belief was less prevalent amongst people in CRCs who argued that the Inspectorate has been biased towards supporting its own arguments around reversing the now failed policy of Transforming Rehabilitation. There was some debate amongst participants about how the Inspectorate could, or should, enforce compliance with its recommendations although most people were happy with the primarily relational way of encouraging compliance with sanctions for non-compliance being considered relatively unnecessary. To conclude, the work of the Inspectorate has a significant impact on probation policy, practice and practitioners. The majority of participants were positive about the process of inspection and the Inspectorate more broadly, notwithstanding some of the issues raised in the findings. There are some developments which the Inspectorate could consider to reduce the burden inspection places on providers and practitioners and enhance its impact such as amending the frequency of inspection, improving the feedback given to practitioners and providing more localised feedback, and working to reduce or limit perceptions of bias amongst people in CRCs. The Inspectorate could also do more to capture the impact it has on providers and practitioners – both positive and negative - through existing procedures that are in place such as post-case interview surveys and tracking the implementation of recommendations.
