This chapter presents the results of several qualitative and quantitative analyses conducted on Johnson & Johnson’s online community. The results revealed the fact that the company has built a strong reputation that it uses as a framework for its diversity programs and communication. In addition, Johnson & Johnson employs dialogic communication to a greater extent than the companies analyzed in this book.
