A strong reputation drives business. Trust in your organization helps in sales, recruitment, financing – in relationships with all relevant stakeholders. What is your reputation strategy?
Reputation management builds on situational awareness. A reputation strategy determines key stakeholders – and their views, expectations, and desires. It recognizes shifts in the operational environment and your enterprise's unique reputation potential. It encapsulates the purpose, the core narrative, and the customer promise of a company seeking growth and enhanced presence. The result is a common direction in effective communications, marketing, and sales.
Does your own company know which stakeholder relationships are the most salient ones? Do your colleagues understand how to nurture these relationships for holistic success? What is the single most significant opportunity in building your organization's reputation?

Netprofile's Crisis Lab simulation is an intensive drill that improves individual and team crisis communications skills through role play. How does the team react to the various stages of an escalating crisis? Will they settle into their crisis roles – and will they be able to build trust in the face of mounting criticism and pressure?
An organization's success depends on its stakeholders’ trust – the level of which is determined by the way organizational leadership engages with its key stakeholders.
The Crisis Lab coaching session is conducted by Netprofile's experts in media, business, and public affairs. They will brief the team in on crisis communications principles, and the group will go through the takeaways of the simulation together. The exercise will improve the team’s ability to reign in a raging crisis in the traditional and social media, and among stakeholders.
The crisis communication simulation is part of our H72 cyber crisis management concept.

Organisaation muutostilanteissa strategisen hallinnan merkitys korostuu. Miten ylläpidetään henkilökunnan motivaatiota esimerkiksi toimintatapojen uudistuksessa tai tietojärjestelmien käyttöönotossa? Miten varmistetaan muutoksen avainhenkilöiden tietojen ja taitojen riittävyys? Muutostilanteen viestintä on herkkä paikka – sen onnistumisesta riippuu organisaation tulevaisuus.
Impact Strategy -metodiikassa muutosta hallitaan tehokkaaksi osoitetun rakenteen kautta. Konsulttimme tekevät muutoksen logiikasta ymmärrettävää. Autamme kartoittamaan vaaranpaikat sekä tunnistamaan ja valmentamaan sisäiset lähettiläät tehtäväänsä. Teemme usein myös yksilötason pitkäkestoista sparrausta, jonka kautta avainhenkilöistä itsestään tulee muutosviestinnän erikoisosaajia.

Strong performance skills are particularly important when the organization becomes a target for negative attention.

We structure our media training around the fundamental techniques of world-class delivery, including a CxO level dive into the mechanics of difficult interview situations. On-camera performance and peer learning are at the core of our training sessions.
Our Coaching Clinic sessions build on the principles of dialogic pedagogy. The process starts with an analysis of trainee skills, followed by mapping individual strengths and opportunities.

Welcome to the age of stakeholder capitalism! With the advances of communication technology, more and more organizations need to consider a widening array of stakeholder opinions. Audiences expect enterprises to comment on, and even to lead, societal development. On a global scale, numerous successful companies already have an activist leader.
Thought leadership works for the benefit of the organization. It also provides food for thought and increases individual brand value. Many aspire to become a thought leader. But where does one find the insights that resonate within the target audience? How does one reach a relevant public, and what does one say to them?
Netprofile builds thought leadership using proprietary Coaching Clinic methodology. Work begins by determining the strategic objectives and relevant thought leadership channels. In the next phase, our advisory centers on sprints of individual coaching. The coach’s job is to make themself redundant as the organization and its representative take control of their own destiny.
The explosion of popularity in podcasts, webcasts, and webisodes is evident in the skyrocketing standard of presenter skills.

The hands-on training covers, for instance, the basics of healthy speaking habits, establishing rapport with the audience, appropriate register, and handy techniques for scriptwriting and editing.
