closeExecutive Summary of an international research study sponsored by Corporate Excellence – Centre for Reputation Leadership in collaboration with Cees BM van Riel, Corporate Communication Professor at Rotterdam School of Management - Erasmus University. The study addresses the success drivers of Chief Communications Officer (CCO). It was carried out from June 2011 to December 2012, and it used questionnaires and in-depth interviews with 117 Communications Director from large corporations in the U.S., UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Brazil, Mexico and Chile.
What determines the success of Chief Communications Officer (CCO)? To what extent do personal skills play a role in that success? What are those skills? To what extent does the business in which the organization operates play a role? Is it more operational, tactical, strategic or a combination? The research points out three main aspects: the CCO must play an important role both internal and externally, the CCO should implement an impacting communication, and he or she should have the personal skills enable them to carry out strategic tasks.
