2020 has proved to be a challenging landscape for businesses globally, with established norms of working, internal communications, client contact and marketing being forcibly altered in ways that could not have been predicted.

In this report, FTI Consulting has analysed the views of key industry stakeholders as to the impact of Coronavirus on existing stakeholder engagement opportunities and methods, as well as sentiments as to how the industry may adapt in future to meet future challenges posed by digital engagement.
