  • Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness
    Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness Reputation is at the heart of a company’s success. This unique book, from four of the world leaders in reputation research, reveals the very latest thinking about how organ- izations can improve, whether they are in the public, commercial or not-for-profit sector. The philosophy is to match the external (customer) perception of the organization and what they value, to the internal (customer-facing employee) perception and their organ- izational values. Only when these are ‘harmonized’ can the firm be truly competitive. Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness takes the subject of Reputation Management further than any previous text. It covers some familiar ground: dealing with the media, crisis management, the use of logos and other aspects of corporate identity. But it also argues for Reputation Management to be seen as a way of managing the long-term strat- egy of an organization. It presents a new approach to measuring reputation, one that relies on surveying customers and employees on their view of the corporate character. It carries detailed results of studies showing the interaction of customer–employee per- spectives and how and why customer views influence commercial performance. The book introduces the Corporate Reputation Chain – the potential to link staff and customer satisfaction via the organization’s reputation, and to the Corporate Personality Scale – a way of measuring what customers and staff feel about the organization itself. Detailed case studies from a variety of different companies and sectors reveal the prac- tice of Reputation Management. Corporate Reputation and Competitiveness is intended to be useful to both managers and students on postgraduate courses.

  • Glasgow University Honorary Doctor of Science Degree
    Glasgow University Honorary Degree of Doctor of Science 2 July 2013 Roger Crofts Statement by the Chancellor Sir Kenneth Calman DISCE DOCE – learn and teach. And this is my charge to you today. While you might not want to do it all again as Livingstone suggested he might, you don’t or shouldn’t ever stop learning! Professor Crofts, our honorary graduate of today is surely a prime example of this sense of continuous endeavour. Some of you will know the famous quote from Mahatma Gandhi: 'Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever'. Oration for Roger Crofts by Professor Anne Anderson, Head of College of Social Science Chancellor, by the authority of the Senate, I present to you this person on whom the Senate desires you to confer the honorary degree of Doctor of Science: Roger Crofts. Roger Crofts was born in Leicester on the 17 th January 1944. He attended Hinckley Grammar School before graduating in 1965 with a degree in Geography from Liverpool University, going on to gain a Postgraduate Certificate in Education from the University of Leicester in 1996. In 1970 he gained the degree of M Litt from the University of Aberdeen for a thesis on ‘Coastal processes and evolution around St Cyrus’. After a brief sojourn as Research Fellow with the British Geomorphological Research Group at the University of London in the early 1970s, he made Scotland his home – and the focus of his wide-ranging professional achievements. Roger’s path has been to work in the public sector, chiefly as a Government adviser and administrator and as the leader of a major public body.
