Corporate reputation defined as "overall estimation in which a company is held by its constituents. A corporate reputation represents the net affective or emotional reaction - good bad, weak or strong- of customers, investors, employees and general public to the company's name". (Fombrun,1996, p.9)

Also "corporate reputation is all encompassing term for what employees think about their employer, what customers think about their provider, what investors think about their shareholding and so on" suggested by Varey (2002, p. 193)

Reputation = Sum of images = (Performance and Behavior) + Communication

World's leading companies such as Coca cola, Unilevers, Johnson & Johnson , Disney, etc had truly created their corporate identities that define their who they are and what they stand for. Those organizations have been gone through various stages and used scientific approaches to build their corporate identity.

The most important practice for any organization is not just to create their corporate reputation, but to sustain and increase their reputation to generates the confidence in the present as well as in the future.

Reputation can be either collapsed or increased in a micro second due to a small incident made by any organization. Once an organization has destroyed their corporate reputation it is million times harder to rebuild that. Because there are uncountable parties are involving & influencing corporate reputation of organizations. The scientific approach is to respond & respect uncontrollable parties who influencing organizational reputation such as central government, international organizations such as UN, World Bank, Trade unions, Media, etc and also effective management of controllable parties who involved & influencing organizational reputation.

Managing corporate reputation towards the external stakeholders is highly critical because these parties are highly active & responsiveness for organizational activities at any time.

For an example at the beginning of the crisis period of seylan Bank Media is highly active and made a huge impact on organizational activities.

Reference - Article 1 Daily mirror ( 2009) & Article 2 Sunday Times(2008)

1.2.4 Shareholders

As a result of actively managing corporate reputation finally shareholders are benefited by achiving higher shareholder value, sustainability of the industry.

Also managing corporate reputation towards shareholders organizations can retain their shareholders as well also can increase the share capital.

1.2.5 Actively managing corporate reputation in reality

Seylan Bank PLC was one of the highly affected financial institutes in Sri Lanka during the global financial crisis period. In December 2008 there was a unexpected threat arise to the whole Ceylinco Group of Companies including Seylan Bank. Former Chairman's association to the bank had a great image and identity in the over a period of time as he was socially recognized as a great icon as well as well reputed personality towards the community.

After few press release published on newspapers & Breaking news broadcasted on air regarding the liquidity issue of Goldern Key Credit Card Company, another subsidiary of the ceylinco Group of companies it was directly affected to Seylan Bank and Rs. 18 Billion withdrawals in very shorter period of time shows the reputation of the bank is in a threat and the bank is about to close down. However the Sri Lankan Government took over the bank under Central Bank Supervision and appointed a new chairmen and board of directors by providing a huge mission of sustaining Seylan Bank.

Seylan Bank has taken so many actions to sustain their reputation to keep the current deposits and to develop a positive perception on all the Sri Lanka's mind about new Seylan Bank.

However Seylan Bank PLC has satisfied most of the above advantages of actively managing corporate reputation during the crisis period.

There are so many short falls will arise when companies practicing Corporate reputation in a reality.

Arguments against actively managing corporate reputation

To make positive reputation organizations must develop four key attributes such as credibility, trustworthiness, reliability & responsibility. (Fombrun,1996.) however if organizations cannot full fill above key attributes those organizations will achieve negative corporate reputations automatically.

Following factors will be affects when actively managing corporate reputation in organizations.

Organizational culture is the key of managing its corporate reputation. It includes Founder, history, leadership and management style, organizational environment etc. Mullins (1999) stated culture as "collection of traditions, values, policies, beliefs and attitudes that constitute a pervasive context for everything we do and think in an organization"

Therefore there can be mismatches between organizational behavior & corporate values & personal values & beliefs when organizations are managing corporate reputation.

Also negative personal reputations of the company founders for an example Dr. Lalith Kothalawala's association to Seylan Bank & other Ceylinco subsidiary companies in Sri Lanka.

Organizational structure & hierarchy is also involved in managing corporate reputations.

There are so many resource involvements in managing corporate reputation depending on the organization.

Negative Associations such as celebrity Endorsements', Cooperative Strategies, etc may not be sutable for the organizational corporate reputation.

Seylan Bank has gone through all the above difficulties when actively managing their corporate reputation during the crisis period as well as all the time periods. For a example during the crisis period the biggest challenge to the bank was to retain their current employees and to communicate them the current situation of the bank and to make sure that their employment is not in a threat. At a crisis period like this it is highly important to control the internal pressure from unions, pressure from customers & share holders, other stakeholders such as media, also the external forces such as PESTEEL environment as well.

During the crisis period biggest challenge for Seylan Bank was to take out the whole image which associated with Dr. Lalith Kothalawala & Ceylinco group for past 20 years from Seylan Bank.

Over a period of time former chairman Dr. Lalith Kothalawala has endorse Seylan Bank as "My Bank" and as a result Seylan Bank has positioned as Dr. Lalith Kothalawala' s Bank in customers mind.

How not to be threatened by a crisis

Any event or series of events that can imminently and significantly damage a company's reputation may be a crisis for any organization.

Fink (1986, p.15) suggested that from a practical , business oriented point of view a crisis is any situation that runs the risk of escalating in intensity, falling under close media or government scrutiny , interfering with normal operations of business, Jeopardizing the positive public image presently enjoyed by a company or its officers, Damaging a company's bottom line in any way.

When looking at the above definition and also the common understanding of a crisis is it can be happen at any given time whether we forecast or not.

Crisis & Communications

Communications plays a major role during crisis periods. The most significant inter-relationship between communications and crisis is "Communications can use to overcome the crisis" or "crisis can be created through communication" therefore communication may be the most important function of a organization during a crisis.

British petroleum is one of the organizations who faced the biggest crisis situation of the world in the near history. International media has made that situation as their headline & CNN explains the situation on breaking news and so many live endorsements on media may affect BP's corporate reputation for certain level. However BP's crisis communications process has minimized the effects from international commodities.

Phases of crisis communications

Hainsworth & Meng (1996) identified following phases which a crisis is pass. Therefore the interface of crisis communications may differ from each stage.

First scanning the environment to find out the signals of a disaster and making contingency plans, recovery plans & communications plans for the identified risk.

Secondly pre impact is where organizations prepares specific crisis management plans , forming crisis management teams & informed key stake holders about the crisis.

Then the impact , crisis management plan is implemented, and close contact is maintained with the

media and key stakeholder groups. The aim is to neutralize and localize (contain) the crisis,

without hiding or diminishing its significance to stakeholders

And finally Readjustment the organisation implements strategies for reputational repair, and remains

consistent, positive and concerned through investigations, compensation claims (where relevant)

and other post-crisis tasks.

Characteristics of crisis communications

There are various characteristics of crisis communications which is common on most of the crisis communication scenarios.

Well prepared for crisis communications where organizations has to ensure what they communicates as crisis communications and the impact to the organizations reputation after the crisis communication.

Crisis communications are very straight forward and the focus is only on how to avoiding the crisis .

The most important characteristic in crisis communications is its centralized.

Only the allocated people can make statements or address to media on crisis communications.

Most of the crisis communications are more into functional messages rather being creative.

Higher level of credibility is required in these type of communications.

Another characteristic of crisis communication is speed to response for the issues arisen.

How to manage crisis communications

Managing crisis communications is the important element of crisis communications. Augustine (2000) has introduce a model six stages of crisis management

Stage 1 : Avoid the crisis

Avoiding crisis is the least costly, simplistic way to avoid the crisis.

Analyzing of the environment to find out the risk which can be attracted to the organization and the consequences & analyze the cost of prevention.

Searching for things which is beyond organization's control & make contingency planning for these things, also it is important to setting up clear rules & expectations to employee behavior in order to avoiding crisis.

Stage 2 : Prepare to manage the crisis

Preparation for crisis which includes creating contingency & crisis management plan which needs to be update at least by annually. Also as a preparation forming cross functional crisis management teams and test contingency plan & teams by doing activates such as drafting press releases, developing dark web sites , etc.

Stage 3 : Recognize the crisis

At these stage organizations has to perceive how others will perceive an issue & challenge organizations perception.

Monitor internal & external stakeholders' criticisms, concerns & Questions.

Use independent investigators, as well as outsiders, to assist in understanding the situation.

Stage 4 : Contain the crisis

This is the crucial situation of crisis communications management. At this stage Organizational has to take fast decisions and to allocated a team which is actively working 24 hours for the crisis management. And to allocated a single person as company spokesmen who makes all the comments in public. Also it is important not to leave stakeholders to get information from media regarding the issue.

Stage 5 : Resolving the crisis

At this stage organization has to act fast to get out from the crisis situation, Organization has take the facts direct to public, and also demonstrate responsibility, willingness and transparency in investigating the problem and putting it right, Promote resolutions and improvements, and add incentives to retain or win back stakeholders.

Stage 6 : Profiting from the crisis

This is the final stage of Augustines' crisis management model. At this stage organizations have to reap the benefits of enhanced stakeholders trust as a result of positive , ethical ,considerate handling of the crisis. Also it is highly important to learn from the mistakes for enhanced crisis management in the future.

How Crisis communications make Impact on corporate reputation

Organizational corporate reputation is the first thing which will be affecting as a result of a crisis situation. Therefore crisis communications is there for safeguard organizational reputation as well as overcome the crisis.

As crisis communications directly influencing organizational personality & identity also the behavior of the organization there is closer link between crisis communications & corporate reputation.

Crisis communications are make a impact on organizational reputation in various ways. Initially internal preparation to the crisis, building up crisis management teams, internal crisis communications will enhances the trust of the employees towards the organization. And as a result employees will no leaves the organization also they will not make any negative statements about the company during crisis period.

Effective crisis communications will increase the customers trust towards the organization & its behavior. And they will retain as loyal customers even at crisis situation.

Through effective crisis communication to the entire community, stakeholders such as media, government, pressure groups, etc organizations are making a impact on their reputation.

Seylan Bank anticipated & planned a crisis

Crisis can be happen in any given time unpredictably. But if organizations can scan the environment & looking for signals about rising issues, crisis can be identify easily.

Seylan Bank has already affected by a huge crisis in 2008/09 period and recovered strongly due to the crisis management process & procedures they practiced.

But if Seylan Bank identified the upcoming crisis in early stages they had the opportunity to avoid the crisis.

As learning from the mistakes of the crisis period Seylan Bank has scanned the environment and figured out the upcoming issues of the environment which may have favorable potentials to attract by Seylan Bank.

One of the interesting & unpredictable crisis is System frailer. in other words if there is a system frailer occurs for Seylan Bank what will happen to the corporate reputation ?

Focusing on the above anticipated crisis situation Seylan Bank has made initial steps to avoid the crisis , but if the crisis has occurs they are now preparing to face the crisis.
