Rezensionen

This pioneering volume explores the corporate heritage brand concept from its inception. The articles and Balmer's penetrating commentary provide insights for both managerial and academic audiences interested in advancing their knowledge and understanding of brands. It treats the identification of an organization's brand heritage, how to harness and apply it, and its continued stewardship. The contents encompass heritage in corporate and non-profit entities across different cultures, eras, and industry settings - from monarchies to hotels, from breweries to medicine shops. Balmer, himself a co-creator of "corporate heritage brands", is the most appropriate guide to offer these collected foundations on the nature, value, and use of the concept.

Stephen A. Greyser, Richard P. Chapman Professor Emeritus, Harvard Business School (co-creator, "corporate heritage brands") USA.

Undoubtedly some of richest and most meaningful brands around, corporate heritage brands can also be the most challenging to fully understand and manage. In this scholarly tour de force, John Balmer assembles a fascinating collection of readings notable for their deep insight and sharp practical value.

Kevin Lane Keller, Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth College, USA.



Corporate heritage plays an increasingly significant role in contemporary marketing brandscapes. Representing a type of "living history," heritage brands symbolise continuity as well as awakening nostalgia for times past. This compendium pulls together the most important international scholarship on corporate brand heritage and is a must-read for all those researching and working in this area.
