Commitments WorkThe Power of Commitments for Small Businesses
Global Trust Levels - 2015It is evident by studies being done by Edelman Trust Group that Trust Levels are painfully low.
Why do you think India and China are so high?
Based on Edelmen Trust Data - 2016Respondents want to see a shift in CEO focus from short-term results and lobbying to job creation (49 percent) and positive long-term impact (57 percent). They want business leaders more visible in discussions of income inequality and public policy (80 percent). (Critical Finding for all businesses)
Despite an increase of one point to 42 percent globally, government remains the least trusted institution for the fifth year running.
Trust in NGOs went up in 81 percent of the countries surveyed with the most dramatic jumps occurring in China (17 points) and Mexico (11 points).
Globally, family-owned companies (66 percent) remain most trusted, trailed by public (52 percent) and state-owned (46 percent) businesses. (Critical for our group)
For the fifth consecutive year, search engines (63 percent) and traditional media (58 percent) remain the two most trusted sources for general news and information. Online media jumped 8 points to 53 percent and is now the third most trusted source, followed by owned media, which is up 3 points to 46 percent and social media (44 percent).
