Dogs and Reputation

A reputation built over many years can be lost in one minute. Dogs are so popular as companions because, whatever you say or do, they will always be happy to see you and will never criticise you.

Reputation management

More on Diplocalendar 2012 that explores in both a serious and lighthearted way, some elements of interpersonal relationships and management that can help in daily activities.
The subject for the month of April is Reputation.
“Reputation differs from credibility. It deals with the perception of others, built over a long time. A person may have a ‘good’ reputation for being inspiring, or a ‘bad’ reputation as someone to be feared. Reputations can travel far without us ever moving. We hear of a person’s reputation before we ever meet them, or see them. ‘Their reputation precedes them.’ It does not take much to lose a good reputation but once lost, it is likely lost forever.”
