    December 3, 2021

    Currently, the well-known comparison of some character traits of the British heir to the throne Prince Charles and the musician Ozzy Osborne is circulating through the social media.

  • What Reputation Management Means for Brands and Why it is Important

    October 25, 2021

    Our colleagues at news aktuell recently published a survey according to which reputation is important or even very important for 97 percent of companies in Germany. Despite this overwhelming importance of the topic, however, only slightly more than half have a strategy for systematically building it up — and only slightly more than a third measure changes on a regular basis.
