Özet:

 The importance of corporate communication has increased day by day with the development of technology and growing competition. Today, almost every brand has a corporate communications department and manager. In this study, the characteristics of corporate communication departments and managers of the brands with the highest brand value in the world and Turkey are compared, as shown in the Brand Finance 2022 study. In the study, content analysis was preferred as a research method. The sampling method chosen was typical case sampling, one of the purposive sampling methods. The data for the research was obtained from the websites and LinkedIn accounts of the corporate communication departments and managers of the brands. The result of the research is that the managers of the global brands are mostly male, while the managers of the Turkish brands are female. It has been found that the brands mostly operate in the private sector. The most preferred title by the managers is Corporate Communication Director. It was found that most of the managers have a bachelors degree. It was found that women have a higher level of education than men. It was found that managers have between 1 and 5 years of experience, both corporate and professional. And finally, it is found that managers are mostly promoted from within their own ranks.

 Kurumsal iletişimin önemi teknolojinin gelişmesi ve artan rekabet anlayışıyla birlikte her geçen gün artmaktadır.
