Recenzii
... the authors take a balanced, practical and jargon-free tone well suited to their corporate audience ... The book is perhaps most valuable in terms of the overarching perspectives it attempts to impart to managers: that "community relations" activities are not the only, or even the most powerful, drivers of local perceptions of a project (for example, the impact of actual business operations on communities inevitably can be far more important); that an inclusive and respectful process of engagement is often more valuable than generous community investments made unilaterally by the company; and that all aspects of a company's operations which affect its "license to operate", from government relations to security policy, are better addressed as elements of a coherent strategy than through ad hoc fire-fighting. If managers were able to fully take these principles on board, much local opposition could no doubt be avoided. Read the full review - Rob Foulkes, Critical Resource.
Descriere
Getting it Right is a manual for corporate managers responsible for company operations in poor and politically unstable societies. Managers can analyse their own interactions with local communities, so that they can more effectively accomplish their production goals and ensure local communities are better off as a result.
