Getting Transformation Done: The Role of Brand

90-minute Talk

About This Talk

MCDONALDS, DISNEY, APPLE, NIKE, TESLA... The mere mention of these names evokes a feeling, thought, or action. In a single word, these brand names codify a set of values, complex ideas, and product promises that have led millions of people to action. What if you could harness the same principles and power of branding to lead change within your organization?

You don't have to be Don Draper on Mad Men. Your project doesn't have to be filled with Disney's magic Pixie Dust or Tesla's game[1]changing ingenuity. It's not about outcomes, but rather, it's about why the outcomes matter. In this talk, we'll look at why people want to follow some brands and not others. Comparing attributes of great leaders and brands in their ability to lead people to action.
