This second report in the five-part Innovation Trends Report series explores the role of transparency in building trust, credibility and the right to operate for corporations, nonprofits, foundations and government entities. The report investigates the new expectations that people have – as consumers and advocates – for greater transparency. It offers insights and a roadmap for how organizations can design communications programs that stand out in a crowded landscape and lead in a new age of transparency.

 

The team created the Innovation Trends Report resource to build awareness and fuel dialogue around the fast growing Solution Economy – multi-disciplinary and collaborative efforts by companies, foundations, nonprofits and governments to solve complex social problems.
