Join Us for Our April Luncheon – Beyond the Logo: Rethinking Branding

IABC_April_website

When you think of brand as the heartbeat of an organization, as the promises you deliver to your stakeholders, and as the reputation you want to have, then it takes on a whole new meaning for an organization. This also elevates the role of the communicator in the process, taking on the brand from implementation to activation and ultimately expanding the role of “brand manager.” Branding is no longer an advertising or marketing function but a leadership function where communication is key.
In this session, we’ll discuss the branding (re-branding) process and how your organization can create and activate a brand that ultimately drives your reputation. We’ll look at case studies, best practices and discuss the importance of culture alignment and cross-walking. Bring your whole marketing team and walk away with some strategies to implement immediately.
