3. Why is corporate image important? Corporate image describes the manner in which a company, its activities and its products or services are perceived by outsiders. In a competitive business climate, many businesses actively work to create and communicate a positive image to their customers, shareholders, the financial community, and the general public. A company that mismanages or ignores its image is likely to encounter a variety of problems. Some of the warning signs that a business might have an image problem include high employee turnover, the disappearance of major customers, a drop in stock value, and poor relationships with vendors or government officials. In businesses of all sizes, it is vital that managers recognize the importance of creating and maintaining a strong image, and that above all they also make employees aware of it. Remember that a good corporate image can take years to build and only moments to destroy!
