The University of Oxford Corporate Affairs Academy
Is corporate reputation top of your board’s agenda?
The Corporate Affairs Academy has been developed to give Corporate Affairs Directors in major corporations a deeper understanding of the nature of reputation, and to enable them to consider the reputational issues involved while dealing with all stakeholders. The programme is designed to arm them with the tools and knowledge to engage with the Board and ensure that reputation is dealt with as a strategic issue at the highest level.
The Academy has been developed by the Oxford University Centre for Corporate Reputation, a world leading research-led centre focused on reputation, in partnership with Hesleden Partners, leading thinkers in organisational reputation and the development of high performing corporate affairs functions, to keep reputation at the top of the organisational agenda. It provides an opportunity to connect with the latest academic research in the field and share experiences, ideas, and best practice with expert faculty and a global peer group of Corporate Affairs Directors – ultimately enabling the corporate affairs function to make a more strategic and valuable contribution to the business.
