They range from executive search firms, recruitment agencies, legal practices and accountancy firms to consultancies in various specialities.

Principles of Brand Management

Principles of Brand Management

This session is concerned with the foundations of brand management. It will open by considering some of the issues involved in nurturing brands. To manage brands effectively there needs to be consensus about the nature of the brand in question. As brands are intangible assets a framework will be presented to characterise the nature of a brand. One of the problems is that an inconsistent approach to supporting the brand may result, so a framework to manage this will be discussed. Ways of building more emotion into a brand will be explored.  Subscribe

Strategic Brand Management

Strategic Brand Management

Effective brand strategy necessitates taking a pan-company perspective to understand the organisation’s competencies, identify new opportunities and leverage the advantage of corporate culture to deliver the brand promise. Brand success does not result just from focusing on customers, but rather from adopting a more balanced perspective by addressing stakeholders. In an era when it is easy to copy what a brand can deliver (functional values) it is more difficult to copy how the brand is delivered (emotional values). This session will address how by looking inside and outside an organisation brands can grow and be sustained. It will open by presenting a model to strategically grow and sustain brands, “From brand vision to brand evaluation”. After explaining the model, the different elements of the model will be explored to show how the model can be used to develop valuable brands.  Subscribe
