Your reputation is
your most valuable
business asset.

Most leaders don't manage it deliberately — until something goes wrong.

Available as a keynote, half-day workshop, full-day intensive, or multi-session series — brought directly to your organization, university, or MBA program. Also available as a small-group masterclass for individual leaders.

Reputation isn't what you say about yourself. It's what happens when you're not in the room.

Most business leaders think about reputation reactively — after a bad review, a failed hire, a client who left without explanation, or a public moment that got away from them.

The leaders who build lasting businesses manage reputation proactively — as a deliberate, strategic asset with specific inputs and measurable outputs. This program teaches exactly that.

🏢

For organizations: Brand reputation, employer reputation, and leadership reputation are three separate assets. Most companies manage none of them deliberately.

🔥

In crisis: The window to protect or repair a business reputation is narrow and unforgiving. This program prepares you before the moment arrives.

📈

As growth strategy: A deliberately managed reputation is a compounding asset — one of the highest-ROI investments a business can make.

For Organizations & Universities

The program that pays for itself the first time you need it.

Reputation crises are expensive, fast-moving, and almost always preventable with the right framework in place. Organizations that invest in reputation management before a crisis have dramatically better outcomes — in client retention, media narrative, employee trust, and recovery speed.

Jocelyn brings Business Reputation RX directly to your organization — custom-designed around your industry, your risk profile, and the specific reputation challenges your leaders face.

Particularly powerful for companies navigating transitions, rebrandings, leadership changes, public moments, or simply building a proactive reputation strategy for the first time.

Pricing is by engagement, not by seat. A 15-minute conversation with Jocelyn will scope the right format and investment for your organization.

Keynote

60–90 Minute Keynote

Jocelyn on stage at your conference, leadership summit, or industry event. Reframes how your audience thinks about reputation as a strategic asset — not a PR problem to manage after the fact.

Workshop

Half-Day or Full-Day Workshop

Deep work on your organization's specific reputation profile — where you're strong, where you're exposed, and exactly what to do about both. Practical outputs, not theoretical frameworks.

Series

Multi-Session Program

The complete curriculum embedded in your leadership development program. Organizations leave with a functioning Reputation Management System, not just awareness.

Universities & MBA Programs

Academic & Cohort Programs

Business school students and emerging leaders who need to understand reputation strategy as a core business discipline — before they're managing a crisis for the first time.

When This Program Matters Most

Reputation risk isn't hypothetical.
These are the situations it's built for.

The Reputation RX framework applies across the full spectrum — from building proactively to recovering under pressure. All scenarios are addressed in the curriculum.

Navigating a Public Crisis

A bad review that went viral. A media story that misrepresented your company. A departure that became public. The window to respond is narrow — this program gives you the framework before you need it.

Leadership or Ownership Transition

Family business succession, a new CEO, or a founder stepping back. Reputation travels with people — and managing the transition narrative is one of the highest-leverage decisions you'll make.

Rebranding or Market Repositioning

Changing what your company stands for requires active management of what the market already believes. Most rebrandings underinvest here — and pay for it in years of market confusion.

Employer Reputation & Retention

The talent market knows your reputation before your recruiters do. Organizations with strong, deliberate employer reputations attract better people and lose fewer of them.

Client-Facing Reputation Strategy

What your clients say about you when you're not in the room determines your referral pipeline, your renewal rates, and your ability to command premium pricing.

Proactive Reputation Building

The best time to manage your reputation is before you need to. Leaders who build deliberately — not reactively — create a compounding asset that works for them for decades.

What We Cover

Six sessions. A complete framework
for managing reputation as a business asset.

All content customized for your organization when delivered in-house. Every session applies directly to your industry and situation.

01

What Reputation Actually Is

The three distinct reputation assets every business has — brand, employer, and personal leadership — and why managing them as a single thing is where most organizations go wrong.

02

Auditing Where You Stand

A structured assessment of your current reputation across all three dimensions — what the market believes about you, where the gaps are, and what's driving each one.

03

Building Reputation Deliberately

The specific inputs that build a strong reputation over time — client communication, thought leadership, how you handle problems, and the operational behaviors that become what people say about you.

04

Crisis Preparation & Response

The crisis communication framework that protects your reputation when something goes wrong — including the first 24 hours, the narrative you own, and the recovery arc that rebuilds trust.

05

Digital Reputation & Social Proof

How your online presence reinforces or contradicts your offline reputation — and the specific strategy for making both work together as a single coherent asset.

06

Your Reputation Management System

Every participant leaves with a written Reputation Management System — a living document that defines what you're building toward, how you'll monitor it, and what you'll do when it's threatened.

Who This Is For

Any leader whose business results depend
on what the market believes about them.

Which is every leader. But some situations make it especially urgent.

CEOs & Founders

Your personal reputation and your company's reputation are deeply intertwined — and both require deliberate, proactive management to serve as the growth asset they should be.

PR & Communications Teams

The strategic framework behind the tactics — so your team is managing reputation as a business asset, not just responding to whatever happened this week.

Family Business Leaders

Where personal, family, and business reputation overlap completely — and where a single incident can affect the business, the family brand, and the next generation simultaneously.

Organizations in Transition

Companies navigating leadership changes, rebrandings, acquisitions, or any moment where what the market believes about you is actively shifting.

Universities & MBA Programs

Emerging business leaders who need reputation strategy as a core competency — not something they pick up after their first crisis.

Individual Leaders

Who want the complete Reputation RX framework for their own career or business — available as a small-group masterclass with peers.

Common Questions

Get in Touch
Is this only useful after a reputation crisis?
No — and waiting for a crisis is the most expensive approach. The entire first half of the program is about building reputation proactively, so that when something does go wrong, you have a foundation to protect and a framework already in place. The organizations that recover fastest from crises are the ones who were managing their reputation before they needed to.
How is this different from a PR or media training program?
PR and media training teach you how to communicate with the press. This program teaches you how to build and manage the underlying asset — the actual reputation — that your communications are protecting. It's the strategy behind the tactics, and it covers your full reputation footprint: brand, employer, client, and personal.
Can this be customized for our industry or specific situation?
Yes — and for corporate engagements, it always is. Reputation risks vary significantly by industry, company size, and stage of business. Every in-house delivery is designed around your specific situation, risk profile, and the outcomes you need.
What does a company walk away with?
A functioning Reputation Management System — not just a workshop experience. That means a clear audit of your current reputation, a defined strategy for what you're building, a crisis response framework, and the specific behaviors and processes that will maintain and compound your reputation asset over time.
Can our company pay for the individual masterclass?
Yes. Most participants get reimbursed through leadership development or communications budgets. We'll provide documentation or invoicing upon request.
