Social Capital Index

Take a step towards creating social capital

The social capital index is Republik’s proprietary tool that enables organizations to achieve business success and create a positive effect on the environment and society. By completing a survey developed by our impact communication specialists, your company can evaluate the balance between your impact-related activities and your communications about them. The survey takes around twenty minutes to answer. After completion, you will be given a score that will assist you in creating social capital by improving the balance between your communications and your impact.

A balance is achieved between communication efforts and impact actions when the line between the circles is perfectly horizontal. The bigger the circles, the more relevant the various actions implemented.

The ADVANTAGES

The survey your company will take in order to receive a score is composed of two main sections, one on your impact and the other on your impact communications. You will therefore receive a separate result for each section as well as a final overall score. These different scores will allow our team of specialists to better determine what type of support would potentially help you improve.

Achieving the right balance between your impact and your communications about them allows you to strengthen your organization’s relevance and credibility, in addition to ensuring greater long-term stability. It will also make it easier to recognize any opportunities that may arise to turn your company into a leader in its field. It should also be noted that, these days, companies’ only option is to be part of the solution.

Who can answer
the index?

This survey should ideally be answered by a person within the organization who has the best overall view of the company’s social, environmental, and communication practices. The questions mainly focus on the company’s corporate social responsibility, but also on media investments, social benefits, for example. It is important to consult your experts on these topics.
