A number of earlier studies argue that for CSR to be impactful on the stakeholders, corporations must communicate CSR information to their stakeholders. Thus, CSR communication plays a role in influencing customers’ perceptions and evaluations of corporate reputation. The author reviewed existing literatures that focus on corporate reputation and CSR communication.
