Calm, Patient and Good Humored: Larry Foster, Bill Nielsen and Ray Foster have a blog on corporate reputation issues, and it’s first rate, as you would expect.

I can’t believe they need any introduction, but Larry was head of corporate communications at Johnson & Johnson during the Tylenol crisis, Bill was his successor—and a leading light of both the Arthur W. Page Society and PR Seminar—and Ray is the current corporate vice president for public affairs and corporate communications at the much-admired pharmaceutical company.

Between them, these three guys know more about the real world of corporate reputation than the rest of us will ever learn. Smart post here on the relationship between the weakening bond of loyalty between corporations and their employees and the declining reputation of large corporations generally, but the whole thing is worth a read.

Oh, and it’s called calmpatientandgoodhumored.com—three virtues in short supply in the blogosphere.
