31、7%consider the sector trustworthy.This has been driven by concerns around data privacy,false information,and distrust of motives.Given this context,corporate communicators must determine whether the risks outweigh the rewards of communicating on social media.There is little doubt that the phenomenon
32、 of techlash has eroded trust in the technology industry.This is in part due to its association with social media.Trustworthiness in the technology industry has regressed toward the mean of other industries,and social media is now the least trusted industry of all.(S1)A sizeable majority of people g

36、)disagree with the statement that social media platforms are now too compromised to be credible for corporate communications.The consensus among corporate communicators is that,although criticisms do exist,social media provides many benefits as a low cost,high reach,highly targeted communications me
37、dium and therefore should be part of the corporate communications mix.Are social media platforms now too compromised to be credible for corporate communications?“I think it is important,there is this element but it is not so strong.It is those same platforms that allow you to communicate with a frag
38、mented audience,i.e.,10 years ago you went on TV and reached an audience of 15 million people,today you reach 3 million people,the rest is fragmented.Social remains the vehicle.Here the point is the choice of the platforms where you put your message,of the elements of relevance,so most likely there
39、is a greater attention in understanding which media to go to.”“It is the way people get their information,so to a certain extent(whether)its credible or not,which is a big question,but its the way they get it so you still need to use it.”The fragmented communications landscape makes social media a v
40、ery cost-effective way of reaching multiple audiences.Corporate communications executives often work within tight budgetary constraints,but at the same time need to achieve as much relevant reach(reaching the most stakeholders in the relevant audiences)as possible.As one Council member put it,“you h
41、ave to go where people are,if youre absent that will hurt you.”The use of social media also involves managing risk when it comes to developing an effective channel strategy.Therefore,for many Council members,managing risks entails being selective about which social media channels to engage with.For
42、instance,LinkedIn is frequently cited as a social media channel that entails much less risk than broader social media.1514T H E S O C I A L M E D I A C O N U N D R U MT H E S O C I A L M E D I A C O N U N D R U M27%Agree58%Disagree14%UnsureBase:88 Council members“Here the point is the choice of the

45、h channels are good for you and targeting them in certain ways is more important,to ensure that you are credible,but they are definitely still channels that you need to be on.”Having detailed social media plans and monitoring the conversation is another key to managing risk.While corporate social me
46、dia posts may look like top-of-mind utterances,they in fact need to be carefully crafted to align with the companys strategy.Disalignment between internal and external actions and communications leads to reputational issues.“As long as you have robust monitoring in place and the ability to act quick
47、ly it is not an issue.People who post without thinking of the consequences are the ones that have the issues,but for us it is about having decent processes in place to ensure that we are best protected.”The growth of misinformation is another area of concern for the majority of Council members.Indee

50、ter a lot and it is very cost-effective for us,but there are obviously things we have to do on Twitter and there is an asymmetry in expectations about how companies respond to criticism in that people can be very vituperative and as a company you just cant respond to that in the same way.”Do fake ne

53、ghly valued,one of the more effective ways for companies to engage with a wide variety of audiences is via their employees.Two-thirds of Council members believe that the benefits of employees posting about the company on social media outweigh the risks.If a company is well-aligned on actions and com
54、munications internally,then employees can be some of the companys most effective spokespeople.Several years ago,Council members were more divided on the role of employees in digital communications,but the broad consensus now is that employees,when given some general guidelines,can make a positive co
55、ntribution to the credibility of a companys communications.Do the benefits of employees posting about the company on social media outweigh the risks?“Theres two types of ways employees can use social media.On a professional network like LinkedIn it is a net benefit because people act more profession
56、al on these networks and thats the purpose of those networks.Posts on non-professional networks by employees dont always align with what image the company wants to put forward and it runs the risk of making the company look unprofessional and employees with differing views shouldnt challenge each ot
57、her publicly.Could also create issues with team harmony.”The changing social media landscape means that corporate communicators are not ready to engage with every social media platform or concept that comes along.For example,the reaction of Council members to the concept of the Metaverse was incredi
58、bly mixed.When pushed on the idea of whether the Metaverse will transform the way we do business,most Council members said that they didnt know enough about it at this point to have a good idea of what impact it would have.Will the metaverse transform the way we do business?It seems that corporate c

78、not.Many Council members indicate that a company should not apologise for broader societal issues that impact all businesses or an entire industry.If the issue is beyond the control or responsibility of a single company,then there might be value in working against that issue,but an apology in this c

86、ed to greater crisis monitoring and scenario planning.Many Council members indicate that there is a heightened sense of urgency and a stronger tendency to be more human,more empathetic,and much quicker with a crisis response when things do go wrong due to the speed of todays news cycle.Not surprisin
87、gly,the speed of information travel makes formulating an effective response more challenging as companies try to determine the facts,obtain alignment internally,and determine the right message to communicate.“In the past,we might have waited to have everybody agree,and have the is dotted and ts cros

104、ation Council members is that theyre facing increasing regulation with nearly four-in-five saying their business is more regulated now than it was five years ago.I P S O S R E P U T A T I O N C O U N C I L R E P O R T 1 6T H S I T T I N G35T H E B U S I N E S S O F R E G U L A T I O NSome will see t
105、his increase in regulation as a sign that business cannot be trusted to do the right thing and so governments and regulators are increasing their involvement to mandate certain behaviour.This view is supported by our Council members in markets where regulation has not increased and reflects a desire
106、 for more intervention,particularly in areas like corporate sustainability.“Unfortunately,we havent seen it increase and regulation in our sector is crucial.The only regulation is from a fiscal point of view,whereas it should be regulated from the point of view of sustainability and CSR.Its in that
107、direction companies that must be helped by the government to take a path on that issue.”Perhaps another assumption around regulation is that companies dont want it.Certainly,to some extent,the lack of regulatory frameworks can reduce the administrative burden and allow for reduced costs more broadly
108、,however it can also be a business risk.Indeed,regulation provides certainty,particularly in developing markets.“We have higher production levels outside of our home market than within it because it lacks certainty.The lack of regulation creates volatility,so we search for markets with more regulato
109、ry certainty,and we set up operations there.”Top-performing companies,even within reputationally-challenged sectors,often perform well on measures like going above and beyond regulatory requirements.In practice,this reflects a willingness to do more than the minimum legal requirement in any jurisdic
110、tion and instead,do whats right and lead on key issues.This often involves advocating for regulation.So,perhaps the impact of strong industry or company regulation is not whether or not regulation increases,but rather,whether you have a seat at the table when it is being drafted.“For us in communica
111、tions,we need to think about the opportunity we have to feed into some of that regulation.We can use our insight and our knowledge to help influence some of those decisions from a regulation point of view and some companies happily lean in on that and some dont.We are not a massive one for going in
112、and talking to regulators,I think we should do it more and we are starting to do it more,certainly in Europe,and in partnership with our Government Relations team which is how it should be.There have been numerous high-profile examples of national governments seeking to enforce regulation on global
113、companies,with limited success.Many of these examples have focused on the tech sector which has innovated and grown across geographic boundaries faster than regulation can keep pace with.”I P S O S R E P U T A T I O N C O U N C I L R E P O R T 1 6T H S I T T I N G34T H E B U S I N E S S O F R E G U

115、ending managing divergent regulatory systems,with 81%agreeing it is increasingly time-consuming.Is dealing with divergent regulatory systems increasingly time-consuming?This can mean divergence across nations as well as within nations where domestic regulatory frameworks are not consistent.“There is
116、 a lot of regulation afoot in the whole area of ESG,whether that is globally or regionally,and different standards are being developed so you have to keep track of those standards.In the UK,gender pay gap reporting is a legislative requirement,but people around the rest of the globe dont understand
117、why that has to happen.There are lots of different environments and lots of different challenges.”The Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine have added further complexity to the issue with each showing how fast regulation can change based on health advice and trade sanctions respectively.This has
118、resulted in closer working relationships with legal departments.Some notable examples include the US government attempting to pass legislation to break up the monopolistic power of major tech companies,disputes with the Australian government over the issues of payments from tech platforms to the med
119、ia industry for using its content,and governments in multiple jurisdictions attempting to classify rideshare drivers as employees to bring some level of protection to gig-economy workers.Its fair to say,the global behemoths have fared well in each case leaving some to question whether globalisation
120、has made regulating corporate behaviour futile.But most Council members disagree.I P S O S R E P U T A T I O N C O U N C I L R E P O R T 1 6T H S I T T I N G36T H E B U S I N E S S O F R E G U L A T I O N13%Agree66%Disagree21%UnsureBase:79 Council members81%Agree5%Disagree14%UnsureBase:78 Council me

122、of regulation that they are often most valuable to their business.Indeed,corporate communicators have become critical partners to compliance,legal and government relations teams,as the regulatory environment continues to evolve to meet stakeholder expectations and responds to external disruptions.An
123、d so,regulation is yet another string added to the bow of corporate communicators.“If companies are involved in elaborate,even if not illegal,but elaborate and aggressive tax avoidance policies,why wouldnt you want to tax them?Theyre not paying any tax anyway.”I P S O S R E P U T A T I O N C O U N C
124、 I L R E P O R T 1 6T H S I T T I N G38T H E B U S I N E S S O F R E G U L A T I O NCouncil members are divided on the merits of windfall taxes with many feeling the subject is nuanced and requires a case-by-case review.Should windfall taxes be an option when companies are making excessive profits?“
125、You have to ask,why are they making exceptional profits?and if it is because of bad behaviour,however you want to define that,then there may well be a role for governments to intervene.But if it is just circumstances or a result of good business practice,its quite hard.”For many,its as simple as,if
126、profits are obtained legally then there is no rationale for government intervention.However,the increase in tax minimisation strategies and examples of multi-billion-dollar companies paying very little tax is reason enough for some Council members to support governments enacting windfall tax regimes

128、e creation.Its worth lies in its ability to mobilise people around a common goal that reinforces culture and,in turn,boosts performance and growth.Council members also believe that having a clear vision about the kind of company you are is increasingly important in the war for talent,among generatio
129、ns who want to make a difference in their daily lives.“Corporate purpose is much more about,How do you define why you operate?Whats the leave behind you want to have in the world?Why are you here to do business?”While having a broader purpose is expected,companies also need to be selective about the
130、 issues they get involved with.Only 9%of Council members think that addressing societys problems is solely the responsibility of government;however,they are also keenly aware of the risks of being drawn into increasingly polarised socio-political debates.“Should we take a stance on Roe v Wade?From a
131、 corporate perspective there is nothing in our business to say that we should take a stance.There is no clear morally correct side but sometimes there is a clear right and wrong,even if it is difficult.”41E S G:T H E C O R P O R A T E N O R T H S T A RWRITTEN BY XXXXXX XXXXXXXESG:THE CORPORATE NORTH

133、ink their corporate responsibility communications to their ambitions.But today,they face much greater pressure to tie communications to measurable behaviours.This is an important shift and has laid bare the very fundamentals of ESG what it really stands for and what it delivers.For some Council memb
134、ers,there are structural questions still to be answered:“Im fascinated with the culture and rhetoric of ESG.ESG has become a problematic organising principle for corporations.Its an artificial construct;theres no inherent logic to either of the three elements or combination and people accept it as a
135、 natural or sensible organising force for collective and corporate decision making.”43E S G:T H E C O R P O R A T E N O R T H S T A RI P S O S R E P U T A T I O N C O U N C I L R E P O R T 1 6T H S I T T I N GHow ESG relates to purposeESG is increasingly the execution of corporate purpose.It is the
136、expression of how this vision is incorporated into business planning and aligned with day-to-day activities.If purpose is the north star for everyday decisions,ESG criteria are how businesses are evaluated and held to account for those choices.“Purpose is your company being defined based on how you
137、are going to deliver a constructive social or environmental impact.It is around your definition of the company.ESG is a set of standards created and imposed,mostly based on risk to your company that is part of the financial reporting technocracy.”Global events have elevated ESGThe series of environm
138、ental,social,and political shocks that have ricocheted across the globe the Covid-19 pandemic,climate catastrophes,the war in Ukraine,supply chain disruptions,culture wars,commodity price spikes and subsequent inflationary tensions have heightened expectations of corporates and shaped how their ESG
139、actions and ambitions are now judged.“There were periods of time where it was easier to get a get away with greenwashing,woke washing.We want to call it purpose washing.You know you can tell where the boundaries were where we could get away with things I think its becoming increasingly more difficul
140、t,as it should.”ESG is omnipresent ESG obligations have forced firms to be more agile to get ahead of potential issues.The consequence has been the permeation of ESG considerations into every aspect of the corporate communicators day.ESG is the red thread that runs through everything that they do,as
141、 they seek to protect and maintain their firms social licence to operate.“A few years ago,our corporate level communication on ESG was only the Annual Sustainability Report,in recent years nearly half of the communication is related to ESG.”“I do think ESG is 90%of our corporate reputation,probably.
142、I do think it has a really big influence.”“Performance that doesnt deliver on ESG requirements is not going to be tolerated either and there is a pretty good example of that in terms of the horrendous war in Ukraine where many companies did the right thing and divested,or sold down pretty quickly,th
143、ey had no choice,it wasnt going to be possible for them to continue and just ignore what was happening on the ground.”More than half of Council Members say that ESG has fundamentally changed the way their business operates,while four in five believe that poor ESG performance now has material consequ

146、standardisation and therefore disclosure can be subjective and open to different interpretations.For example,ratings agencies attribute a risk rating based on self-disclosed company data and information.As companies employ a wide range of different ESG metrics across multiple categories,this makes c
147、omparisons challenging and,at times,questionable.“Part of the challenge is that there are no definitive objective criteria for measurement a lot of it is subjective.We report some things that are useful for ESG investors to evaluate,but it is communications dependent and often in the eye of the beho
148、lder.”“The absence of targets and progress versus those targets means you are inevitably going to face accusations of greenwashing:4543%Agree43%Disagree14%UnsureBase:97 Council membersI P S O S R E P U T A T I O N C O U N C I L R E P O R T 1 6T H S I T T I N G44lovely commitments but actually there

153、The supply chain dependency The largest part of the climate risk challenge lies in the supply chain.There is a sense among Council members that this has not yet been credibly addressed.Reporting on Scope 3 emissions(the activities from assets not owned or controlled by the reporting organisation)pos
154、e the greatest test for the large enterprise.Firms who are responsible for complex supply chains are only as strong as their weakest link.“The shift to Scope 3 reporting will be challenging:requirements to ensure that your supply chain is carbon neutral by 2040 means it is now going to be about maki

158、ced on companies to disclose information the pressure on communicators increases.“There are regulatory implications for all of this as well.So some of this is voluntary,but some of this is mandatory from a disclosure standpoint.Thats a whole new world,but to the extent its up to us,were trying to st
159、ay focused on those things that make the most sense.”“CSR which was more of a nice to have,it was something you could choose to do if you wanted to,had money to,whereas now ESG underpins a lot of your purpose-based activities because there are a lot more standards in place,a lot more expectations on

161、I T T I N GESG is increasingly central to how corporations are assessed as an employer,as an investment choice,as a good citizen.But there is a view that progress is slow because many organisations have yet to embed ESG directly into corporate strategy.What advice do Council members have on navigati

170、 is to increase profits?Overwhelmingly,no:they see this as a false distinction.Profit and purpose are“two wheels on the same cart”;without either one,no business will travel very far.But Council members are also pragmatic:6 in 10 agree that,when times get tough,profit will take priority.Even then,bu
