The Tata Case: When Governance Puts a Historic Reputation to the Test

Few corporate names carry as much prestige as Tata. Founded in 1868 by Jamsetji Tata, the group is today often described as India’s largest business conglomerate and has a rare distinction: its holding company, Tata Sons, is owned by approximately...

Evidence, commitment, and participation: three mechanisms for reducing perceived risk

Anyone who signs off on a B2B purchasing decision risks more than just the budget. They risk their own internal credibility. If the supplier fails, the question you hear in the hallways is rarely about the supplier. It’s about who chose them. That’s why so many decisions...

From Trust to Verifiability: When Words Are No Longer Enough

A local government builds a school near high-voltage power lines. Parents discover that the distance between the building and the power lines is 45 meters, not the 65 meters listed in the official plans. From that point on, any assurances given by the local government are worth little, and...

Corporate Digital Responsibility: AI Governance Is Also About Reputation

There is a question that comes up more and more frequently in meetings with clients—one that, just a few years ago, would have been referred to the IT department: How is our data used, and what role does Artificial Intelligence (AI) play in the service you provide us? Today, the answer to this question carries significant weight...

The Art of Storytelling: Creating Narratives That Make an Impact

The Psychology of Engagement: Why Do People Actually Interact with Brands?

B2B buyers do not make decisions based solely on rational analysis. They are people who face complex decisions in uncertain contexts and within organizations with differing interests and risk tolerance levels. Understanding the psychology behind these...

From the Audience to the Community: Rethinking Engagement

There’s an audience that views your content, moves on, and quickly forgets your brand. And there’s another that becomes part of a community, recommends your organization, talks about you to colleagues, and chooses you again without needing to be persuaded. The difference...

Data-Driven Storytelling: Where Analysis Meets Creativity

  Data doesn't tell stories. People do. The organizations that derive the most value from data analysis aren't necessarily the ones with the most information, but rather those that know which numbers are relevant, what they mean to the people receiving them, and...

Creating a Content Ecosystem That Delivers Results

Many organizations produce content. But few have a true content strategy. The difference lies not in the quantity, but in how each piece fits into a larger system and contributes to the customer’s journey. Effective content does not exist in isolation...

Trust as a Value. Because Your Reputation Is Your Greatest Asset

Reputation does not appear on the balance sheet, but its impact is visible throughout the organization: in the contracts won, the partnerships formed, and the talent that stays. Companies that understand this reality stop treating reputation as a function of...

Strategic Communication in a Fragmented Media Ecosystem

The message is already circulating across multiple channels—whether on LinkedIn, in a trade publication article, or in a sales presentation sent by your team. The question isn’t just whether that message is being disseminated, but whether all of these versions actually convey the...

Salgado Without Memory

In communications, reputation isn’t what the organization would like to remember. It’s what the market doesn’t forget. Organizations pretend they don’t remember. They rebrand without acknowledging what happened, change leadership to erase collective decisions, or publish reports...

#U’veGotMail: June | What Does Ricardo Salgado Have to Do with B2B Communication?

“Is your organization merely present, or is it truly making an impact?” Reputation is no longer built by a single voice. An organization’s credibility is shaped in many places at once, and almost none of them are under its direct control. It’s about...

Between Earned and Endorsed: how to navigate the new relationship between media and influencers in Public Relations

“The line between media relations and influencer engagement has been gradually blurring. By 2026, the most effective communication strategies no longer treat these areas as separate entities. Instead, they integrate them around...

Media Pitching in 2026: how to capture attention when everyone else is trying to do the same thing

“Journalists receive more leads today than ever before. They have less time available, less leeway to filter information, and an ever-increasing ability to identify generic, automated, or irrelevant content. In this context, capturing attention...

The CEO as communicator: why executive visibility has become a strategic asset

“There was a time when discretion was seen as a natural trait of good leadership. The work spoke for itself. Public exposure was optional. Today, that idea has become incompatible with the way trust is built, the way organizations are...

Employer Branding as a Public Relations Strategy: reputation starts at home

“Before a candidate walks into an interview, before a journalist picks up the phone, before a client approves a proposal, an opinion about your organization has already been formed. And, more often than not, that perception doesn’t stem from the information you share. It stems from...

Reputation: conscious influence or unconscious waste

In professional services, clients buy what they understand. The rest is landscape (or, rather, vanity). No law firm, consulting firm or professional services firm is judged solely on what it knows. And their reputation is not built on the final opinion...
