In today’s economy, a substantial part of the value of a consumer-facing company is tied-up in the value of its corporate image and its brand. As such, major companies today have both a great opportunity and a significant challenge at hand in managing their corporate reputations. In recent years, we have seen numerous instances of how the public perception of companies - and their brands - can be either positively or negatively impacted almost overnight by a wide range of events, social media, and more. As such, “reputational risk” is - and will continue to be - a significant managerial concern. In this study, we explore recent survey data on how the American public regards leading companies today in regard to their reputations. Using data from a major national consumer survey, we examine the seven dimensions of corporate reputation and assess how the public views the “best” and “worst” companies today on each reputational aspect. The article concludes with a look at the managerial implications of the present research and a look ahead to how further research could both deepen our understanding of consumer perceptions of corporate reputation and connect the reputation construct to actual corporate performance.

Since 2016, the Bumiaji Village Government has prioritized the development of the tourism sector as one of the productive economic priority sectors. It is based on a decline in apple and citrus agricultural output due to a decrease in soil quality and an increase in global temperatures that have an impact on the quality of apple and orange products. With the allocation of more village funds than any other village in Batu City, tourism development in Bumiaji Village is carried out through a variety of development programs, ranging from village, sub-district and district governments. The development programs overlap and are not integrated with each other. In addition, the emergence of several tourism service businesses and the management of individual tourist attractions in the village of Bumiaji have an impact on the uneven distribution of income obtained through tourism development.

Sejak 2016, Pemerintah Desa Bumiaji memprioritaskan pembangunan sektor pariwisata sebagai salah satu sektor prioritas ekonomi produktif. Hal ini dilandasi oleh adanya penurunan hasil pertanian apel dan jeruk akibat penurunan kualitas tanah serta kenaikan suhu global yang berdampak pada kualitas produk apel dan jeruk. Dengan alokasi dana desa yang lebih banyak daripada desa lain di Kota Batu, pembangunan pariwisata di Desa Bumiaji dilakukan melalui beragam program pembangunan, mulai dari pemerintah tingkat desa, kecamatan, hingga kabupaten. Program program pembangunan tersebut menjadi tumpang tindih dan tidak terintegrasi satu sama lain. Selain itu, munculnya beberapa usaha jasa kepariwisataan dan pengelolaan atraksi wisata secara perorangan di Desa Bumiaji berdampak pada tidak meratanya pembagian hasil yang didapatkan melalui pembangunan pariwisata. Menggunakan jejaring kerja sama dengan pemerintah Kabupaten Malang, Pemerintah Kecamatan, dan pengelola Desa Wisata Pujon, Prodi Pariwisata FIB UGM melakukan kegiatan workshop dan pendampingan dalam diskusi pembentukan kelembagaan yang integratif dalam pengelolaan pariwisata desa. Artikel ini menjelaskan upaya yang dapat ditempuh oleh pemerintah desa dalam melakukan pengelolaan, pendampingan, dan pengembangan kepariwisataan di Desa Bumiaji. Secara rinci, artikel ini menjelaskan upaya-upaya sistematisasi kelembagaan pariwisata desa yang dapat dilakukan oleh pemerintah desa. Harapannya, dengan adanya sistematisasi kelembagaan dalam pengelolaan pariwisata desa, pembangunan pariwisata yang akan dilakukan mendatang menjadi terintegrasi dan berdampak positif secara langsung serta merata bagi masyarakat lokal.
