"Trust is not a zero-sum game"
April 2009
Nearly two-thirds of informed publics (62%) trust corporations less than
they did a year ago, according to the 10th Edelman Trust Barometer. When respondents in the United States were asked about trust in business
in general, only 38% said they trust business to do what is right — a 20 percent
plunge since last year — and only 17% said they trust information from a
company’s CEO. Both are lower levels of trust than those Edelman measured in
the wakes of Enron, the dot-com bust, and Sept. 11.
“It has been a catastrophic year for business, well beyond the evident
destruction in shareholder value and need for emergency government funding,”
said Richard Edelman, president and CEO, Edelman. “Our survey confirms that
it’s going to be harder to rebuild our economies because no institution has
captured the trust that business has lost — trust is not a zero-sum game.
Business must recast its role in society and move beyond simply generating ROI
to its shareholders. It must partner with government and other institutions to
assume societal responsibilities.” The Edelman Trust Barometers explores trust
in four institutions: business, government, media, and NGOs.
