Countries, regions and cities no longerneed ten years to build a perception. in a three-year period it is possible to build and manage a reputation.
However, easy comes, easy goes! Perceptions will be destroyed easierand faster. Those who react faster(especially to problems), combined withstrategic thinking,will be the ones with greater control over their image and reputation
