Harnessing Russia’s Growth Potential
Panel Session
Pavilion F, Conference Hall F1

In the present era of fast communications, the protection and preservation of business reputation is becoming increasingly topical and businesses are more dependent on non-financial factors. Failure to observe environmental standards, insufficient investment in the development of human resources and lack of attention to social programmes and charitable activities may lead to reputational damage and subsequent financial losses. What are the factors, which affect business reputation today? How can it be preserved? How can social responsibility be integrated within the strategic planning and management of a company? What can be done to facilitate trust to avoid loss of money and reputation?
