Meralco Vice President and Head of Corporate Communications, Joe R. Zaldarriaga, shared his insights on brand reputation management during a seminar organized by The Anvil Business Club, an association of young Filipino-Chinese businessmen and professionals. In his talk, titled The Boiling Point: Managing a PR Crisis, the veteran communicator emphasized the importance of strategic foresight in crisis communication to effectively manage a company’s reputation.

Hence, business owners and communicators alike really need to be more proactive, strategic, and empathetic in today’s environment," Zaldarriaga said.
