"The World's Most Reputable Companies" ["With a global score of 78.49, Apple ranked in the top 10 in eight countries and all seven dimensions of reputation. It was the winner in three of those categories; performance, leadership and innovation. 'Apple has seen its strong corporate brand transform into a strong corporate reputation,' Nielsen says. The company's popularity did not translate into a strong reputation until recently, when it started to build a profile outside of its products, he adds. 'Today Apple is seen as a company that is delivering on all 7 dimensions of reputation, and this broader reputation platform proved its value for Apple when it was able to maintain its high ranking despite the loss of its iconic leader Steve Jobs.'"]?Forbes?7:54 AM
