“The economic and social environment that companies and industry associations operate in is changing rapidly. It is no longer just proof of monetary success, but rather trust and credibility that are key factors behind successfully building and expanding a positive reputation. To achieve this, companies need more than ever a level of communications management that is well positioned in terms of speed and readiness for change, and the use of contemporary instruments and channels. SKM contributes answers to questions of how communication processes must be designed and how messages should be conveyed so that they are noticed and, in the best case, processed by stakeholders under the conditions of the digital media world.”
