RepTrak (formerly known as Reputation Institute)[3] is a company that publishes reports on the reputation of corporations[4][5] and places,[6] based on consumer surveys and media coverage. It is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts .[1]
History
In 1999, Charles Fombrun, a professor at New York University Stern School of Business, and Cees van Riel, a professor at Rotterdam School of Management, founded Reputation Institute.[7][8][9]
In early 2020, the company changed its name to RepTrak.[3]
Reputation ratings
In collaboration with Harris Interactive, Reputation Institute developed Reputation Quotient (RQ) in 1999.[10][11] In 2005, Reputation Institute developed the RepTrak model to replace RQ. As of 2016, RepTrak studies are conducted annually.[10][12] RepTrak analyzes corporate reputation using measures in seven dimensions: "products and services," "innovation," "workplace," "governance," "citizenship," "leadership," and "performance."[11][13][14] The company also publishes Country RepTrak which ranks the reputations of nations using three criteria: "appealing environment," "advanced economy," and "effective government."[15]
