The rise of peer-to-peer communications

People used to looked to the government to solve big problems. Now 90% of consumers and 85% of executives believe that large corporations should play a broader role in society.*

The trust gap between consumers and corporations, McKinsey Quarterly, 2008 and PSB Corporate Social Responsibility Branding Survey, 2010

Then & Now

debt crisis • food prices • climate change

energy supply • the digital divide

nuclear security • youth unemployment

80 major global ‘threats’ identified

• old systems and institutions simply cannot cope with new complexity and speed

• these challenges require the engagement of an entire society of stakeholders

• the role of public relations is therefore key

Governments cannot do it alone

Klaus Schwab, World Public Relations Forum 2010

Traditional Influencing Model

Collaborate with stakeholders for success today and sustainability tomorrow demands:

• Governments need to engage corporations, NGOs and ordinary citizens in their work

• Corporations must show ‘micro-level’ accountability to all stakeholders

• “Public relations in the public interest” – relationship brokerage to help bring about economic recovery, political freedom, technological advancement and social justice
