In this year’s edition of .trust for Swiss listed companies, we focused our attention on how companies changed the way they communicated and what they communicated across their various digital channels. How were they able to get through this unprecedented moment?
The 2020 crisis proved to be a double-edged sword in the world of communications: on the one hand, it provided new impetus to take on a more active and communicative role, and on the other hand higher expectations from stakeholders also forced companies into fumbled attempts at innovating their communication strategy.

The challenges the future holds are best faced with management that puts its ego to one side and works for the community.
