Brand Manners

How to Create the Self-Confident Organisation to Live the Brand

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Gleichgültig, wie gut eine Marke am Markt positioniert ist - ein einziger negativer Kontakt zwischen Kunde und Mitarbeiter reicht schon aus, um den guten Ruf zu ruinieren. Um diese Situation zu vermeiden, müssen Unternehmen sicherstellen, daß das gesamte Unternehmen, insbesondere die Mitarbeiter mit Kundenkontakt, die "Marke leben". Denn wenn Mitarbeiter nicht in der Lage sind, das Wesen der Marke durch ihr Handeln zu repräsentieren, können Sie den Unternehmenserfolg erheblich beeinträchigen. Hamish Pringle (Marketingexperte) und William Gordon (Managementexperte) haben in "Brand Manners" ein solides Schema erarbeitet, mit deren Hilfe jedes Unternehmen lernen kann, durch Leben und Repräsentieren der Marke ein ganzheitliches Markenkonzept und eine markenorientierte Servicekultur aufzubauen. Mit zahlreichen Fallstudien von Spitzenunternehmen wie z.B. British Airways, Monsanto, Gateway 2000, Coca-Cola, McDonalds und Burger King. Praxisorientiert und topaktuell!
