Here's a media release with more information:
“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and
five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things
differently.” – Warren Buffett.
Reputation management company, Reputation Matters will host a riveting
one-day conference on the nuts and bolts of building a positive reputation on
Friday, 06 November 2015 at the Protea Hotel Fire
& Ice in Cape Town. Local and international speakers including Andrew
Boraine, CEO of the Western Cape Economic Development Partnership
(WCEDP) will grapple with the key building blocks associated with reputable
organisations.
Just
as you are inseparable from your shadow, so an organisation cannot be severed
from its reputation. An organisation’s reputation precedes success or
failure.
Why
is reputation such a powerful force? Regine le Roux, Managing Director at
Reputation Matters says, “Understanding reputation is a strategic imperative;
it is something which is influenced by every dimension and activity of an
organisation. It's a virtuous circle: A positive, strong reputation attracts
and keeps top employees. Having the right team on board helps you to improve
your service or product offering, which helps you to attract the right kind of
attention. As a result, people will invest in your offering and ultimately you
will be able to see how a good reputation positively impacts your bottom line.”
So
how does one build and maintain a solid reputation? “It helps to get advice
from the experts,” smiles le Roux, which is why we're hosting our inaugural
reputation management conference on 06 November 2015
in Cape Town.”
Featuring influential speakers from South Africa and around the
globe, the conference will walk attendees through the key elements of building
and fostering a reputation. Best practices and case studies shared will equip
attendees with a basic understanding and exciting ideas that they can customise
for their particular business case. As le Roux puts it, “With our tools, team and track record, we can help companies to
take their reputations to the next level.”
World-renowned motivational speaker Braam Malherbe will be the
master of ceremonies for the day and promises to inspire attendees with his
infectious energy and passion.
“A company’s reputation can be tarnished in seconds, and we invite
all businesses to come and share in the wealth of knowledge speakers have to
offer,” concludes le Roux.
The fantastic speaker line-up includes: Andrew Boraine, CEO of
the Western Cape Economic Development Partnership (WCEDP); Mothobi
Seseli, CEO of Argon Asset Management; Mzilikazi Wa Afrika, journalist at
the Sunday Times; Prof Ronel Rensburg, Head of the Communication
Division at the University of Pretoria; Huma Gruaz, Founder and CEO of
Alpaytac Communication in the USA; Nicole Webb, Founder and Director
of Impact Communications in Australia; Lutz Cleffmann from ECCO
