  ABSTRACT: This study explores self-praise strategies utilized in Telstra CSRRs from 2016 to 2020 with a view of how these self-praising strategies contribute to Telstra images construction. The self-praise categories and the frequency of each self-praise category are analyzed. It is found that the indirect self-praise strategies are more frequently utilized than the direct self-praise strategies in Telstra CSRRs. In addition, through direct self-praise strategies, Telstra CSRRs construct Telstra as a responsive, pioneering and highly influential company in Australia while they depict Telstra as a caring, concerned about interest of society and employees, responsible enterprise via indirect self-praise strategies. This study provides some insight into self-praise in organizational settings as well as the construction of corporate image exhibited in CSRRs.
